I visited Carmel Cafe because they sent me a $20 food credit promotional mailer. The atmosphere is very nice, it has an upscale feel for a casual restaurant. The hostess presented us with their ipad menu - which is great, but a bit difficult to use. (I ended up getting out of the menu program and playing with the ipad,... More

You order food on an ipad, which is nice as you can customize all your orders. Service was slow, but friendly. I had the steak which was tough but tasty, chickpea fries were terrific, chard and spinach with garlic was excellent. Short ribs with polenta also very good. Very eclectic menu.

The order gets sent directly to the kitchen, and before you know it, it arrives! Great selection of appetizers with wonderful food combinations. Truly a gastric experience!

My family and I were driving by Carmel Cafe and Wine Bar and decided to stop in, remembering that we had heard great things from mutal friends. We were not disapointed!!! The food was fresh, ambience welcoming and perfect for what we were looking for, and the prices great. I had a glass of the Sangria was delicious! Their wine... More
