Our server was not very present. Sat for a while with steaks in front of us but without knives. Took a long time for drinks to come. Wanted to ask menu questions but she wasn’t visible. But the Xmas decorations were fantastic! Really enjoyed the festive ambiance. One of the better decorated restaurants for Xmas I’ve seen!

We had a wonderful lunch at Cafe Lily! Loved the pasta and my companion loved her Caesar salad with jerk chicken. We splurged on the sorbet, which was also excellent.

Very lively place especially on a Monday night. The service was amazing it was our first experience there and the waiter made sure to be patient and answer any questions we had. I would say be sure to have a reservation tables were always full. The food and drinks were amazing I got a dirty vodka martini which was very good. Me and my husband shared pasta and pizza and it was the perfect amount of food for us. Would most definitely be back!
