My sister & I ate here last Saturday evening. Having enjoyed several good meals here, I hadn't been for over a year & was really looking forward to delicious food, good service & a great atmosphere. Sadly, all three were missing on the night. We were pleased to be able to book a table just an hour before our meal... more

When I explained that it was my birthday and it would be difficult to go elsewhere the woman... more

Went in on a busy Thursday evening during freshers week and half expected to have to wait for a table but fortunately we got a decent table for two immediately. The menu was limited with no obvoius distinction between starters and main meals. We were on a budget and choose Tortilla wraps with chicken and roasted veg. The food came... more

After a disappointing meal the evening before in an independent restaurant (Little Italy)my husband and I felt wary of going to another non-chain. However I am so glad we decided to give it another go. We were lucky to get a table so I would really recommend booking so as not to be disappointed. The staff were very attentive and... more

Despite the name this is actually a Mexican restaurant. Having read the previous TripAdvisor reviews we decided to give it a go - we wouldn't normally eat Mexican in a restaurant as it is usually just the same wherever you go and no better than can be made at home. Cafe Des Amis is very different to any other Mexican... more

superb!
