    Atmosphere was excellent. Group of 8 on Mother’s Day. Service was friendly and attentive. Quartet of musicians playing was excellent. Food was tasty for bunch but limited portion size for cost was only negative, otherwise would be 5 out of 5.

    The food & service are consistently good. A frequent added touch is live music. Today we enjoyed a string quartet.

    I've never had a single food order that wasn't top notch. They have a fantastic Cuban sandwich.

    Our group of friends had a wonderful time last night ! We really did come to hear 110° in the shade. Our waitress could not have been sweeter and did an excellent job for our big group! We were so appreciative of Café 201 that accommodated two more friends who didn’t know they could come until Friday ! A wonderful time was had by all! We will come back, of course!

    We arrived at 8 for dinner and live music at 8:30, while under tornado warnings. At about 8:15, a hailstorm came through, hitting the tin roof and sounding more dangerous than it was. Our waitress Nina did a wonderful job getting people away from windows in case of tornadoes. Fortunately no damage. Excellent service, great food and drink. Band, The Mighty Deltas, was enthusiastic and obviously liked each other. Played 60s and 70s songs. The crowd was probably smaller than normal due to weather but were rockin' and rollin'.
    201 Café and Wine BarResponded on April 8, 2025
    The weather that evening was intense! We are very grateful for how attentive Nina is to our customers and staff, she is a Gem. Thank you so much for joining us that evening and come see us again!

    Our first time dining at 201 Cafe and Wine Bar was a very good experience. The food was amazing & the service was to notch. We enjoyed the band, AM Station and hope to see them again soon. We will be back to 201 Cafe in the near future.

    The place is nice but the food was horrible. The potatoes had so much seasoning on the it made unbeatable and the steak was just a normal steak done on a flattop. Fried shrimp super greasy. Go for just drinks don’t eat there
    201 Café and Wine BarResponded on April 8, 2025
    We are terribly sorry you did not enjoy your dish while dining with us. The feedback is greatly appreciated, and if you'll come see us again we would love to make this poor experience right for you.

    We had a nice server who worked to correct mistakes made with the gluten free pasta I ordered, but I had to wait a while with nothing to eat. The bar was able to make my husband the obscure cocktail he asked for.
    201 Café and Wine BarResponded on April 8, 2025
    Terribly sorry about the pasta, but we're hopeful as we continue to build our team and menu that our service around dietary restrictions improves. We appreciate the feedback especially. Please come see us again soon, as we are always improving and growing as a restaurant to better fit the needs of our patrons.
