Located at 655 6th Ave, Brooklyn, Mexique Cafe stands out as a charming French restaurant that has captured the hearts of its patrons. Diners rave about the exceptional food quality, highlighting favorites like the tagliatelle carbonara and steak frites, often complemented by the warm bread and butter appetizer. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, with a lovely outdoor patio perfect for al fresco dining.

Reviewers like Safiya Graham and Katja emphasize the attentive service, quick food delivery, and generous portion sizes. While some noted the steak could be slightly tough when ordered medium well, the overall consensus is that every bite is worth it. The added appeal of a dinner menu on weekends, featuring delicious mussels and a standout Cobb salad, keeps customers coming back for more.

Coffee and brunch options, including fluffy French toast and flavorful burgers, also receive high praise. Allison Benson sums it up perfectly, stating that Mexique Cafe is not just about Instagram-worthy meals; it’s about serving exceptional food and creating an unforgettable dining experience. For anyone in Brooklyn, this hidden gem is definitely worth a visit.

This is a hidden gem! The food at this spot is amazing! My friend and I went here for dinner and had the warm bread and butter appetizer, the tagliatelle carbonara, and the steak frites with peppercorn sauce. All 10/10. Portion sizes were great, service was very attentive, and food came out quick and hot. Even the tap water was amazing! Steak was slightly tough we ordered medium well but regardless we would absolutely come back. Don’t walk...RUN to eat the food here. It was so good we couldn’t even stop to take a picture of our food. Don’t sleep on the dinner menu!

I love this restaurant! I have been there several times, both with friends and with my husband, and have never been disappointed! The cafe is completely charming and the staff is friendly and attentive. I particularly love having the French toast with fresh fruit, and their generous and delicious Cobb salad. So happy that they are now open for dinner on Fridays and Saturdays (the steak frites and mussels are both fantastic) and are now serving beer and wine. I’m looking forward to the warm weather now to be able to dine on their lovely backyard patio!

“AMAZING” Is the only word I can think of to describe what I just ate. We had the steak and the carbonara. Along with the warmed up bread and butter/glass of rose. The steak was slightly tough but we ordered it medium well. It was still great with the pepper corn sauce. Great spot!!! The pasta was crazy good. GOO THERE NOW.

Love this spot! My sister introduced us to one of her favorite South Slope eats and thankfully, it did not disappoint! French cuisine, American fare. Woo Hoo! After our trip to IKEA, we were starving... so met up with sister & her fam for brunch. What a cute and hidden gem! Cozy space, a few tables outside and an outdoor patio. Love the team and staff here, really nice people, kind and welcoming. The food, wow... they impressed my picky kids... lol Steak & eggs w/ home fries for the 15 yr old, he loved it! Tender and well seasoned. College kid, husband and me all got their classic burger with caramelized onions but sauteed mushrooms for me; perfect medium, juicy and savory - with crispy fries. What’s not to love?!? Great burger. I had a bite of the French toast my sister got and it was fluffy & delish. She & her husband had mimosas (brunch on weekends); it had a foamy cappuccino. We cleaned our plates! And can’t wait to come back and try their dinner menu.

Amazing food— the quality is top notch, the vibes are easy, and the service is attentive. I’ve been here for brunch and dinner, and every time I come, I feel amazing about supporting this restaurant. They’re making incredible food, and everyone should know it. This last trip, we enjoyed sitting in their backyard. The bleu cheese burger was absolutely fantastic— cooked to our request, and so flavorful. We always leave here feeling taken care of. Not a place to overlook— it’s not instagrammy, it’s just good.

Second time here, second time ordering the salmon with ratatouille — and once again, I ate every bite. The salmon is perfectly cooked, and the ratatouille is packed with rich, comforting flavor. Cozy atmosphere, excellent service, and consistently delicious food. Absolutely delicious — highly recommend!

We’re not from the area, but we have family friends in the neighborhood and have now been here twice - once for brunch and once for dinner. I cannot rave about this place enough! The food is absolutely fantastic. From the pasta, to the coq au vin, to the burger, everything knocks it out the park! The wine list is thoughtfully curated. The staff is delightful and so welcoming. We’ll absolutely be making future visits!
