Café Intermezzo - Dunwoody

Najie was amazing. We ordered Mexican Hot Chocolate one of our favorites. Kids had Nutella crepes one with bananas and one with strawberries. I had the Bruschetta and my husband ordered the spicy seafood dip - they were both delicious. My daughters Mango drink was yummy. My Hawaiian mimosa was meh. Would recommend this spot as there is both indoor and outdoor seating available. Additionally, right outside there is a kids little play area in the shopping center which is amazing.

My first visit in 20+ years and brought the family. I used to come a lot in high school with my girlfriend (now wife) so it was nice to introduce it to the kids. I had my go to drink, hot chocolate deluxe. Still so good but I don’t remember it being so heavy. Must be my age. 😂 We had different cakes which were so good. Our server was very attentive even though it took awhile for her to come by.

Food was a 10/10 and the service was great. I highly recommend their tres leches for dessert. Anything on their main course menu is also amazing.

Highly recommend! The food was flavorful and expertly prepared, the desserts were rich and indulgent, and the coffee was perfectly brewed. The service was exceptional, with our server, Jenna who was attentive and knowledgeable. Spinach artichoke dip 9/10 Avocado toast 8/10 Spicy trio pasta was 10/10 Americana breakfast 10/10 Desserts and coffee were 10/10

I came in last night 30 mins before closing and the level of service was GREAT! From the host that greeted us and guided us to the cheesecake caseline to the bar tenders and waitress. I had many questions about the special flavors of cheesecake and everyone shared their favorite choices and what pairs well together with the drink I ordered. Before I left, I ask to speak to the manager to tell her how awesome her team is, and she mentioned she trains the staff well and to treat the first to the very last customer with the same level of excellence! That is CLASS! Well done Dunwoody!

Cafe Intermezzo has been a staple in the family for years, starting from a special outing once a year to now, the sweet treat deserved after a long week. It takes me a long time staring at the cake case to figure out which cheesecake or cake I want to get because they’re genuinely all INCREDIBLE. I personally enjoy the cafe alpine or caffè intermezzo with a cannoli or tiramisu cheesecake, but their tortes, frutti de Bosco(actually my favorite item on the menu) and tiramisu are delicious as well. I have brought countless guests out of town due to how much I’ve raved about them, and sure enough all my guests have agreed that they have the best cheesecakes around. I’m already thinking about my next trip looking at the pictures :)

Café Intermezzo in Dunwoody offers a charming European-style ambiance with elegant décor and an impressive selection of desserts and specialty coffees. The atmosphere is perfect for relaxing conversations or a sweet treat after dinner. While the desserts and drinks shine, the main dishes and service can be inconsistent, and prices are slightly high. Overall, it’s a delightful spot for coffee and dessert lovers — I’d recommend a rating of 3.5 out of 5 stars for its atmosphere and quality offerings.

I've been coming here for over 15 years now and it never disappoints when you're looking for an atmospheric spot with great beverages and desserts. Their cake selection is top notch. The Bosco tart is a personal favorite. Staff is friendly and attentive, highly recommended for date night or when out with a group of friends.

I've been here quite a few times; once for brunch, but many other times just for cheesecake. For the brunch, I tried the smoked salmon benedict and it was great. The eggs were poached to perfection and even the rosemary potatoes were delicious (I'm not a potato person but I ate the entire plate). Now the real star, or stars, of this place: the cheesecake! ANY flavor! My family and I love ordering a couple slices of different flavor profiles and we honestly cannot choose a favorite. One thing about it though, their cheesecakes are always consistently a hit. I highly recommend coming here just to have a slice.

Intermezzo is known for their desserts, I've been many times and their coffee, late night wine and cocktails as well as their cheesecakes and desserts are phenomenal! Unfortunately, the dinner here was just not up to par. The salad was a large portion and the presentation was nice, however the food was very bland. Also, caution on the patio, we had to move inside for some unfortunate bugs outside so just be seated inside during summer. Definitely try out their desserts however! I enjoyed their almond cheesecake!

This is my fave chain to get dessert at if I'm in the area! My friend and I decided to pick out two slices to share and went with the tres leches and the fruit tart. The tres leches was delicious and loved how light it was and not overly sweet! It paired well with the whipped cream. I also enjoyed the cheesecake with berries and loved how the tart berries were a good contrast to the sweetness of the cake. It was pretty crowded on a Saturday night so my friend and I got our cakes to go so we could eat them outside where there were a good number of empty tables. There's also plenty of parking in the lot which makes it a nice spot to get dessert!

Nice romantic ambience and good service but the food wasn't good at all. My friend ordered the salmon pasta and it was barely any sauce on it. The salmon itself was very mid. I ordered the crepe and I wasn't impressed at all. I ate the meat out of it and tossed the rest. I wouldn't recommend these two dishes.

My favorite location Cafe Intermezzo has always been this Dunwoody location. This is the first Cafe Intermezzo I visited many many years ago, and honestly it feels nostalgic now. From coffee dates with my best friend when I was in college to now our wedding anniversary brunch, Cafe Intermezzo holds a very special place in my heart. I always get the Oreo cheesecake and Cafe Giandujia (Nutella latte!!!). Both were delicious as they always are. Since we came for lunch, my husband got the egg white omelette and I got the smoked salmon Benedict. Both are HUGE portions, and we definitely shared. We were able to easily get a table very easily on a Sunday around 1 which was a very nice surprise as well. Can't wait to come back again soon

This review is strictly for the cookies and cream cheesecake, which is an absolutely delicious dessert. After brunch at a nearby restaurant, I decided to treat myself to a to-go dessert. The ordering process was simple, and the staff were friendly. This menu option continues to be one of my favorite desserts! Over the years, it has never disappointed!

Food was solid, hummus and French dip really good as well as the coffee. The lighting was strange and it was really warm in there so that hurt the experience but overall I'd try again

I haven't been to this location for food, but I plan on doing that soon! My date enjoyed the spinach dip, I was not a fan of it though. The bread was very crispy with it and the flavor was okay. I looooved my espresso martini, it had a lot of baileys and was pretty sweet, just the way I like it! The service was great, we were checked on every so often. The ambiance is perfect for a date night! The lights are dim, there's a light at the table, not too loud, just perfect. Will def be back.

Cafe Intermezzo has s distinct vibe. Something European maybe, it feels a little classy and is a great place for nice dinner, drink, or dessert. The food is solid, with a lovely cake display for dessert, and there are some great, distinct coffee/cocoa options in addition to their alcoholic beverage menu. Service is good, maybe a little slow, but that seems like it could be by design where they're not rushing you. People definitely come to linger over drinks and dessert.

First off, shout-out to our server Naji, who provided with friendly and unmatched service.... We came for dessert and coffee. I personally got Turkish coffee, Thres Leches (I accidentally ate it before I took a picture, oops). The establishment has a high-end restaurant decore and intimate lighting, while the price is very affordable. Another shout-out to Naji!

It's been a while since I've been to this cafe but today's visit reminded me that this place still holds up! The wife and I came in for a quick brunch meal and everything was delicious. We ended up ordering to specialty hot chocolates - DeLuxe and Berlin. Both were rich and delicious and definitely worth the price point. But if you think $8 to $9 is too much to spend on coco, one is enough to share between two people so you can get a taste. As for food, they are a bit limited on options. I built out my own French toast meal with bacon and eggs while my wife got the American breakfast with a waffle substitute. The restaurant gives you a large portion which I liked. My favorite part of the meal was the French toast. Lastly the service and ambiance was top tier. We were seated ordered and eating within 20mins of being there. And the style of the restaurant as was reminded me of a cafe i once visited in Rome - perfect for a romantic night or small gathering. I would probably try another spot with my options for brunch but if you want a place wort great drinks, sweets, and pastries- this is the spot

-eggs and potatoes weren't seasoned and soggy -service was fine -AC was broken? They had fans everywhere so not sure -pasta was bland -soup has no seafood in it -Brie toast was soggy as well -fine for dessert wouldn't come back for a meal

My partner and I came in on a Monday and were very surprised that the place was pretty empty (weather too cold maybe?). So we got to experience a non-noisy setup and a place indoors. We came primarily to have their famous Tiramisu. However, we spotted that they serve breakfast items throughout the day. So, we ordered eggs and a slice of toast each in their ala carte section. Pretty basic and average - but we weren't expecting much here. I was really excited for the Tiramisu (in my previous post and experience, I enjoyed it thoroughly). This one was okay. It wasn't bad. It wasn't good. The coffee flavor was less. I don't know if this was just a bad batch or a genuine change - but this one didn't cut it for me. The food is pricey - $10 for the tiramisu, $1.5 for one sliced toast. The vibe in this place is still very romantic and perfect for date nights.

So their food, drinks, and desserts are delicious! It's everything else... the service is incredibly slow, and I went on an evening where it started to rain and the building was leaking. Not sure how that can pass inspection for a food service building, plus there were electrical outlets on the pole. Overall made for not a pleasant experience.

I had every intention of snapping a photo of the tiramisu cheesecake at Café in Intermezzo... but the moment it hit the table, all intentions went out the window. One bite in and I completely forgot about pictures--by the time I came back to my senses, the plate was clean. That should tell you everything you need to know. It was divine. Perfectly balanced, not too sweet, and paired with a bold shot of espresso that rounded it out beautifully. A total treat I'd come back for without hesitation.

I used to go to this place About a decade ago And I've been to all there locations Perimeter location is definitely a nice one The staff always friendly Parking is abundant Nice crowd of people always in abundance And of course... The cakes are always a treat I order my favorite coconut creme torte And more than a decade later It's still as good as the first time They still have a familiar selection of cakes and cheesecakes They have a sweet treat for everyone cake wise Chocolate lovers Cinnamon Apple people Plain cheesecake Caramel concoctions I mean it's a good amount My issue is I always get like 3 slices They also serve food here It's ok But I just come for the cakes And the laid back, down tempo, euro cafe decor atmosphere. Great place for get togethers with close friends Date nights Cafe intermezzo is always a go

The cake was amazing and the service was nice. My only criticism is that is was really dark in the cafe. That's just my preference though.

This is an awesome spot to go of you want to get some time away from the hustle and bustle of the Atlanta scene. It's a good date spot, and it has that type of low key and intimate vibe. It is in a strip mall type of situation so there is free parking. The spot is a little tucked away though. It's not at the front of the parking lot so just be aware that you have to go into the complex to find it. It has a lot of different places to sit, inside...outside... in the back...at the bar... etc. The restaurant may seem like it has a lot of little duck off areas, a lot of corners that you can find a table at, so that is not a bad thing because you may not want to be in the midst of a crowd all the time. Cookies and cream - this was great, it was full of cookies and a lot of flavor. I would definitely suggest this. White chocolate raspberry - This one was the one. My waitress suggested it and this hit all the notes.... it felt like a sin trying to eat it, thats how you know it was good lol. super creamy and subtly sweet with the raspberry tinge. Cookies and Cream - This was the first one I tried and it was super solid. I love cookies and cream ice cream and this was very reminiscing of that in a very good way. Overall if you want a good slice of cake (even though its almost $15) then this is a good spot. If you want an out of the way area to have some convo, this is a good spot.

We came here on a week dah night for dessert and were reminded how much we loved the vibe. We got a slice of chocolate cake (good as expected) and drinks (also good coffee and hot chocolate). But it was very chill and slow pace like in Europe. No rushing to give us our order or bill and very relaxed. Was surprised to see the diverse clientele there single people having a drink alone, couples with food, etc. We sat right by the host stand which seems like an outside area but was plenty warm. The parking lot was empty and so many nearby restaurants in this complex looked to be closed.

Great place for after dinner cocktails and dessert or coffee during the day time. We came for a nightcap for something sweet. Cafe Johannes is my go to, espresso with 2 scoops vanilla ice cream with Schlag. the ambiance is darker, romantic for a date night or a girls night out. They offer some outdoor seating with heat lamps or indoor and bar seating.

Food was really good; we got mediterranean wrap on ciabatta bread and it was so good and flavorful. Also got breakfast americana and that was really good too. Caffe alpine was great and caffe latte was just ok. It had cool decor inside and outside and the bathrooms were amazing. Staff was super nice. Tables were a small and get crowded with plates pretty fast but I guess it is because it's supposed to be cafe style. Free parking!

I came right after the brunch rush on a Sunday. The food was okay - typical brunch food. I got the omelette with a croissant on the side. The service was awful though. I waited nearly 30 minutes before the waiter took my order and didn't write it down. As suspected, my order was wrong. I don't think I'll be coming back to this location even though it's right around the corner from my place.

Where do I even start?!? Cafe Intermezzo is one of my fav places to go for a chill vibe, carrot cake, & a cocktail. No matter the location I am always guaranteed to have amazing service. On my last visit I enjoyed just that! A hefty slice of carrot cake & an espresso martini! I usually opt to sit at the bar when I'm solo but definitely the perfect date day/night venue.

I thought I didn't like espresso martinis until I tried theirs! I've thought about it every night since then and I can't wait to go back.

Beautifully lit, wonderful service and wonderful food. I came here for dessert and drinks for my birthday on 9/21. I ordered a white chocolate raspberry cheesecake with the Kyoto Cherry Rose Tea. 5 stars

yum yum yum ! great food , nice ambiance and polite staff . I came in for my perfect breakfast the bartender was able to help me get just that! Highly recommend .

Amazing food, restaurant and staff. I don't even have a favorite dish here because I love too many things. Their entrees, appetizers, and desserts are all very delicious. And the ambiance of this place is spectacular. I'd recommend this place to everyone.

I've always been to cafe intermezzo for their lovely selection of cakes and cheese cakes and beverages. I went with my date and tried their pasta and was very pleasantly surprised. Ambiance is beautiful as always. Highly recommended for dates or business meetings. We went at night but i would imagine it'll be as beautiful during the day as well. The pasta that we ordered was immaculate. The oil was not too overwhelming and it was very flavorful. I LOVE saucy and salty and I loved both pastas but it might be a little salty for some. The last two times I've been, we received amazing service but this time the service was a little slow. My date was waiting for water refill for quite a while and we waited for the check for a pretty long time. Otherwise, very pleasant experience!

Enchanting old world hideout! Intimidating menu but fun. A great place to go with intent. We could sit and drink every coffee variation on the menu and every pastry...all day long! Even the bathroom is lovely! Long wait times for brunch but staff was helpful, efficient, and accommodating for sizable groups. Can't wait to return!

Food was amazing and so was the service. This was first visit but definitely won't be my last!

my favorite spot to grab a meal . it feels like u have walked into a parisian escape. the food incredible! the coffee amazing. its dim, romantic for a casual date night. just a fun spot.

Food, service and ambiance was very good on several occasions. On a side not, the restaurant at the Avalon was our least favorite.

One of my favorite restaurants for brunch. I stick to the same food. Avocado toast is fabulous. I tend to compare every other establishments avocado toast to this restaurant. Anytime I've brought someone to dine here with me, they enjoy their drinks and food equally.

The cheesecake was a great touch to the ending of my day. I loved the expresso martini it was perfect and the outside patio was perfect on a great evening. The service was great as well. The tables are little, so it is very intimate but I thought it was a great place to go to for a chat and a good drink.

One of the most sophisticated and classy restaurants I have seen here in Atlanta region with such great food options to choose from. From the dimmed lights to the highly decorated dining interiors everything was just amazing. A perfect place for a Valentine Date night! The wait time was told to be 30mins but they returned a call in less than 15mins. The restaurant was huge and relatively dark but nicely lit. We ordered a starter, a main accompanied by a Hot chocolate and couple of desserts. Hummus with Naan (Starter): was good with the mushroom and olive tapenade center and hummus spread around it. The Naan was extremely soft, good and went well with the occasionally bitter Hummus. Tomato Basil Pasta: was just as expected with some herbs and very little cheese topped in a pool of marinara sauce. The sauce was more than the pasta. Hot Chocolate Berlin: was easily the best pick of our Valentines evening. The most delicious and extremely creamy Hot chocolate I have ever had. With hazelnut spread across the brim of the large cup and also at the inside bottom of the cup was just top notch. Highly recommend this! The sweet was perfect and tasted amazing. Hazelnut Chocolate Banana Crêpe: was great with Pecans and powdered sugar all over the top and with some tasty hazelnut chocolate spread on the bananas. I loved to have this full but the quantity was just way too much. Tiramisu: was not the best of Tiramisu's I have tried. Would have to say they kind of played safe with not so much of coffee dusted on the top. Hot Chocolate DeLuxe: would be the hot chocolate kids wouldn't prefer as it was more on the bitter side compared to Berlin Hot Chocolate. It was more of Dark cocoa powder but that was expected as per the description. The ambience was really really good for a date! It's more of a restaurant than just a cafe or a coffee shop in terms of looks and feel. The dim lights are great with candle on the table making it more romantic if you are with your loved ones. The service was literally fast and quick. BOTTOMLINE: Perfect for date nights. Great desserts, hot chocolate and coffee options. Good for light dinners. Amazing ambience. MY PICKS FOR YOU: Hot Chocolate Berlin, Hazelnut Chocolate Banana Crêpe, Tomato Basil Pasta, Tiramisu

One of my favorite dessert places!! The food is pretty amazing too but I really just go here for the coffee and desserts. I really love the Nutella and banana crepes but the white chocolate cheesecake is everything and I don't even like white chocolate. I like this location wayyy better than the one in midtown. There is plenty of parking and so many other good places to eat before stopping by here for dessert. It also has a lot more space so you don't feel packed. This is a lovely place to chill. It's especially gorgeous at night. I definitely recommend for a friend outing or date night or even a solo date. I'm making an edit just to add that the midtown location is great too. A bit smaller but very cute and intimate and the staff are always friendly there even when handling how crowded it gets. This is a great location in Midtown. I live near Perimeter so I prefer the Dunwoody location because it's near home :)

Always a consistent favorite. The food is always amazing- I love the salads, chicken Florentine crepe, service is great and ambiance is the best, very clean, romantic and cozy.

I will never return to this cafe at this location again. We arrived as a group of 12 people, including 8 adults and 4 kids aged between 12 months and 4 years. The manager refused to seat us and said I have to split you into 2 groups. We accepted that, but then he said we can't sit together in the same spot, and he suggested that 8 people sit outside while 4 sit inside. I could understand if the cafe was very busy and we didn't have a reservation, but the outside area was empty with more than 10 free tables. When I went inside, I saw a large empty table without a reservation, and another empty table in front of it. Despite this, he refused to seat us at these three separate tables, even though they were in the same area. The manager outright refused to let us sit, even though the cafe was empty and not busy at all. It felt like he didn't want to work or make the guests feel welcome. I will leave the manager's card here just to let other guests be aware of it, and to let you know that you will not be welcome or receive good service.

Wonderful atmosphere Attentive staff - knowledgable and friendly Limited but very good brunch egg white omelet was excellent very fresh

This was my first time here at this location. Cute spot for a date or girls night out for sweets or coffee or cocktail. Our server was really nice and attentive to us even after a mishap with another customer she remained calm and collected. If you aren't a cheesecake fan, there are other cakes and desserts that you can get. There's lattes and coffees of all kinds and after dinner drinks and liqueurs. Parking is free also.

Host service was extremely so with no hostess being seen for almost 10 minutes. Bar service has good drinks but needs at least one other person behind the bar. Desserts were good. Ambience was a little too quiet. Decent food and portions

Great food and drinks! Jia and Courtney provided excellent service. One of the best espresso martinis I've had in a while!

Deciding not to do the traditional Taco Tuesday I connected with some friends at this location for dinner. I love how the restaurant is tucked off towards the back of the plaza, that really adds to the intimate, yet casual vibe of the establishment. Upon walking up, we were met by the host who was very pleasant and we were able to be seated immediately as we opted to sit outside in the patio area. Upon being seated, the menu QR code is directly in the middle of each table. Upon scanning, you are taking to the multiple options. Make sure you pay attention to which menu you are on as you can ensure to see the options that fit your desire. Our waitress arrived at the table within a few minutes and was very pleasant. She took our drink orders and allowed us a moment to decide on our order. The Meal: GRILLED CHICKEN BRIOCHE Mushroom | Onion | Provolone Cheese Lemon Dill Herb Spread One word, WOW! The grilled chicken brioche provides a balance of still and gooey all in one. The chicken breast was well seasoned and perfectly grilled. The fixings were very fresh and paired very well together. The bun is toasted to golden perfection which provides the stiffness you need for the sandwich to sit like the powerhouse that it is. Coupled with the gooey cheese that is melted in a way that allows it to ooze over the entire chicken breast so you get that delicious provolone taste in every bite. I decided to pair it with the side Caesar Salad. The salad had the perfect balance of crispness, chill, and most of all, parmesan shaving perfection. This isn't a side salad that is just thrown together. This is a side pairing of artistic creativity. Yes, the salad alone stands out due to the freshness and rich creaminess of the caesar dressing. Overall, I would recommend trying this location if you are in the area and looking for a GOOD bite to eat. I opted not to do dessert this time... I know! How dar I. LoL Food- 10/10 Environment- 10/10 Service- 9/10 (there was a period that my Sweet Tea was empty for a good while)

Came for a late night dinner and was not disappointed. The seafood crepe was delicious! Never had one before but was gooey goodness! The hummus was good as well but I think the menu description hyped it up more than what it actually was. The espresso martini is absolutely divine! It's on the creamier side fyi if that's how you prefer yours and sweet which is exactly how I like mine and I didn't even have to ask. I would come back just for this and opt for dessert next time as I hear the cakes are amazing we were just to full. Ambiance was very cute, almost feels like you're in a Mediterranean setting or on a river walk by the outdoor seating loved the ambiance.

Had the Belgian hot chocolate which was hands down amazing. Creamy, rich, and you'll need the spoon for the extra chocolate melt and foam. I messed up with the waffle. I didn't realize the waffle would have pearl sugar or whatever it's called. Way too sweet for my tastes and I just forced myself to eat one piece and the strawberries (added topping), and gave up on the second piece. Be sure to specify no sugar pearls in your waffle if you order waffles!

I had high hopes for this place. The menu looks promising and the ambiance is sooo inviting but the execution just fell short today! I ordered orange juice, a cafe drink, a Belgian waffle, avocado toast and eggs Benedict with a side of bacon. We didn't get our orange juice or cafe drink until we'll after our food arrived, and when my cappuccino Bianco arrived, the whipped cream was flat and the cup was stained from the drink spilling over the sides. This obviously doesn't affect taste, but the presentation was just lacking and service under delivered. The food was a hit or miss. My scrambled eggs were probably the best I've ever had in my life but the toast for my avocado toast was stale and hard to eat. The eggs Benedict came with a perfect poached egg and yummy potatoes but the hollandaise was way too acidic and hard to eat. The waffle was pretty good but small considering it was $9 with a side of strawberries. Overall, this place has great potential but I think either my expectations were too high or they've over promised (based on menu & location & reputation) and under delivered with food execution, presentation and service.

I Felt Like I Walked Right Into A Vintage European Coffee House. I Love Dining At Places That Take Me To A Different Time And Country. The Servers Were Sweet & My Caramel Cappuccino Was Divine With The Rich Schlag Creamy Goodness. I Should Have Been A Bit More Adventurous With My Food Choice. I Ordered The American Breakfast It Was Very Basic. My Friend Ordered The Chicken Salad On Croissant & Said It Was Delicious & My Other Friend Had The Grilled Chicken Brioche & Loved It. The Bruschetta Was Very Good. There Was A Romantic Charm At Intermezzo With The Lighting & Decor.

Came in for dessert. Was met with friendly service, a delicious Expresso Martini, and a decent tiramisu.

I used to frequent the Buckhead location often til it closed. Been to perimeter one a handful of times...FOOD NOT THE SAME! I always get the seafood crepes and always too little meat! So maybe I'll try something else...cappuccino always THE BEST! Cocktails WEAK AH! Stick to wine if you drink...overall it's 2.5 stars in my opinion...NOT THE OLD CAFE it used to be.
