Drove about 15 miles for the "wonderful dessert"... left disappointed. First of all, the young lady behind the counter made us feel as if we were bothering her. The carrot cake was dry and lacked flavor. The "famous" turtle cake... too moist and fudge-like. The lemon tart, however, was delicious... other than the too thick tart crust. And the coffee.....

Liked all the choices in the buffet line. And after a healthy, veggie lunch (if you so desire), they have loads of heavenly desserts! The only drawback for me were the stairs to the second floor seating area. There might have been an elevator, but my grandson did the honors for me and carried my tray.

For 20 years Cafe Latte has served as the best way to end a night at the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, or to wrap up a date with someone who deserves the chocolate mouse cake. It's a no frills place which happens to serve decadent desserts much later than most other places in a city which shuts down around 7.... More

On top of their coffee and dessert they also do soup, salad and sandwiches. Lunch is consistly very good though sometimes the wait during the rush times can get a bit long. I choose to avoid the lines and come in the early evening or late at night. They have great cakes, pies and tarts. I've tried ALOT of their... More

This is the place to go for a fantastic slice of cheese cake, german chocolate cake, fruit tarte, or whatever other mouth-wateringly delicious sweet treat you may be craving. My personal favorite was the cheesecake for years, though not long ago I tried the Tres Leche cake for the first time and have never turned back. Unbelievably moist, this slice... More

Cafe Latte is my go-to place for a treat for myself or with friends. There is a reason that desserts are placed first! Get one - you can always take it home. They are fabulous. I personally always go fro something chocolate. It's really good with their fresh-brewed ice tea or coffee. They also have a full espresso menu. Soups,... More

This cafeteria is classy. The choices of soups, salads, desserts are all great tasting and good looking. They build a sandwich/wrap to your specific choices with all fresh, creative, tasty ingrediants. Try to time your meal to an off hour time, I was there at 4 p.m. and found a table and could linger over making my food choices. By... More

My daughter who lives in MN LOVES this place; she even had their cakes at her wedding, so we stopped by for desserts. I tried a bite of her Tres Leches cake that was OH SO GOOD that I'd wished I'd ordered it. I ordered the German Chocolate cake since I'm a chocaholic and it was divine. My husband's Turtle... More

The Cafe Latte is a venerable St. Paul institution that my wife and I first started dining at in the early 1980's. Be forewarned about long lines and then hunting for a table - but a visit on a Saturday afternoon in May reminded us that it is well worth it. Between us we had a bowl of the creamy... More

This cafeteria style cafe has great food, but even more delicious desserts. I don't get here often but have never been disappointed in anything I have eaten here. Way above average food which is reasonably priced.
