good for great value. service could have been better
Great food for dinner – My wife and I celebrated our 15th anniversary here last month and I kept on asking her why we haven't been to this place until then. The food here is simply delicious. Great service. It is more expensive than similar dining places in the area, but i tell you, you'd forget about the bill and the prices once you start eating!
Organic, healthy decadence – Dinner was really good. The bread was delicious. The friend green tomatoes weren't too heavy. The assortment of vegatables were each perfectly cooked. The steak, although it was a filet mignon, actually had flavor, was a large portion, and was perfectly cooked. The desert was tasty. Although we ate a fair amount and left sated, we didn't feel bloated. I highly recommend this little treasure.
Outstanding Organic restaurant; Quiet Setting Updating my review after going to Flea St. Cafe again last night. Spectacular! Amuse was fresh cherry tomatoes from their garden and super sweet fresh plums. "Summery soup" (carrot and ginger) was out of this world. Fried Greeen tomatoes with corn, bacon mix was delicious. The short ribs entre was super tender and flavorful. Only required a fork - no knife because braised for so long. Even had a nice table side visit with Jesse Cool - the owner and long time proponent of organic ... read more

Nice atmosphere This was a great place to have a romantic meal. But I was not thrilled with my meal it was too organic for me! I dont usually like flowers on my food. It was also expensive.
Resting on its laurels... – After all the hype and wanting to go for years I finally made it last night and all I can say is--what's the big deal? Our dinner was rather mediocre given our expectations and the cost. The ingredients were good and each dish had an interesting point but not enough to make up for faults elsewhere. The vegetable fritto misto was tasty and the cornmeal batter was nice but several of the vegetables were far too fibrous and others were overcooked. The 'stacked' beet and goat cheese was also tasty and... read more
Wonderful local restaurant with excellent cuisine Flea St. Cafe features a lovely menu of dishes made from local, organic and sustainable ingredients. The restaurant is very elegant and warm - great for a date, dinner with friends, or a nice business dinner. The chef came by our table several times to make sure everything was to our satisfaction, which it definitely was. The short ribs and halibut were both delicious, and we splurged on dessert (bread pudding and an oatmeal cookie ice cream sandwich) which was worth it. Serv... read more
Cozy Cafe – Had a wonderful tasting brunch, the complimentary biscuits are warm and delicious and the o.j. refreshing. I have to agree that service is a bit slow and there was a delay in our order due to a mix-up in the kitchen, but they comp'ed us more o.j. I had the Niman Ranch scramble with ham and it was excellent. They have a good menu with interesting pairings of flavors - food for thought. My friend said his cuppa reg coffee was excellent. I would go again. It has a wonderful setting for a more special brunch occassio... read more
