I reserved the peacock room for our son and his soon to be bride’s rehearsal dinner. Cafe Lily outdid themselves! We were given a variety of menus to choose from. They were always easy to communicate with and worked very hard to accommodate our every wish. As for the food, everyone was so impressed and raved about how delicious everything was. We had two servers that were specifically assigned to us and they also were top notch. The wonderful food, great atmosphere, and amazing service made our evening a marvelous celebration.

This was my second visit to Decatur and to Cafe Lily. My first was same time, last year. Both times my sister and I sat outside on a perfect May evening and both visits we had excellent service, good wine and delicious food. We walked from my sister’s apartment, so parking was not an issue, but I understand how it can be difficult during the workday. The menu had something for every taste. This visit I had steak. My sister had scallops.We both were members of the clean plate club. Cafe Lily is indeed, as another reviewer said, a true Decatur gem.

Sophisticated menu. Zuppa Di Mare was magnificent. All seafood cooked perfectly. The Ribeye was excellent beef, well trimmed, and perfectly chargrilled. Service was crisp. Ambiance superb. All of us at the table are world travelers and know what to expect from a good restaurant experience. Two of us live in Paris and are visiting here.

We love sitting at the Cafe Lily bar mainly because of our bartender, Alex. And where do I start on the food it’s all fantastic, the tapas, the pasta, the fish, the beef, chicken... and the salads. Oh and the desserts, we shared the lemon sponge pudding last night, I couldnt stop with just a taste. A great place to celebrate an occasion, last night there was a big 70th in the back room and a 40th in the main room. We go about 2 times a month.

The Pinchitos (Spanish flare on lamb) was delicious and my husband had the Meat and Potatoes, (Ribeye and mash potatoes) which was awesome. We had been there for lunch many years ago and I remembered enjoying it. Well, it’s still going strong. Love the quaint atmosphere and the service was excellent!
