Not only is the food fantastic, but the mosaics on the patio are so attractive. I had the Salmon Nicoise, and it was delicious. I also had the (non-alcoholic) Sangria spritzer. The dessert case is a definite draw, and I couldn't pass up a chocolate chip walnut cookie. Even my husband, who isn't a dessert person per so, had to have a slice of their lime custard dessert cake. At Cafe a la C'Art, you order at the counter and they bring the food to your table when it is ready.

This is a cafe inside a museum. It wasn’t open at 9am for breakfast. As a visitor to Tuscon, we were confused by the description on Trip Advisor because the actual place wasn’t really available.

It's always a good time eating here. The vibe is always good and the food is always delicious. Staff is super friendly. I recommend you stopping by and eating here. Plus they have amazing dessert options.

Loved the food, the coffee, and the atmosphere! Had a frittata with rosemary potatoes, an Americano, and a tropical lemonade. Everything was excellent!

Mark, Chana, and the entire team at Cafe a la C'Art were the absolute DREAM TEAM for our wedding catering, wedding cake, and host for our private Rehearsal Dinner on their BEAUTFUL patio! Mark was so wonderful with making suggestions for both the rehearsal dinner and the wedding day which was so helpful to my husband and I, as we were inundated with all the decisions leading up to the wedding. They provided us with a free tasting of our wedding meal before we made things official and even prepared 3 different cake selections for us to try on the house when we were trying to figure out which cake flavor road to go down (fyi - there is NO wrong road when Cafe a la C'Art is involved!). With the absolutely delicious food, the incredible pricing, and the outstanding kindness and customer service, there is no better caterer out there. My favorite part of the whole experience was our intimate rehearsal dinner serving up a delicious Mexican food spread and our wedding day cakes! We went with the buttermilk berry cake for our guests and a chocolate cake with peanut butter mousse and cream cheese frosting for our sweetheart cake. ABSOLUTELY DIVINE. We cannot recommend Cafe a la C'Art enough and cannot wait to pull out our cakes again on our anniversary to indulge once more!

My soup was delicious, but my bloody Mary was watered down. It may have been sitting waiting too long with the ice in it. The food there is pricey but the drinks are reasonable. I would suggest people go there, just don't get a drink with a lot of ice.

After thoroughly researching catering to host my military retirement ceremony, I am thrilled I made the right decision and hired Carte Blanche. The menu options allowed for both sweet and savory choices for my guests and the presentation was beautifully done. The cake far exceeded my expectations and was both gorgeous and delicious. The prickly pear lemonade was a special Arizona treat for my guests from out of town. Jose was punctual, polite and just a gem to work with. I absolutely, wholeheartedly recommend Carte Blanche for any special occasion catering!

Amazing service from every single staff member! The food was delicious as well. No idea why this place isn't a solid 5 stars. Enjoy this gem in the desert and the museum next door

Great little place. Food was amazing from the pancakes to the skillet every bite was the best! Didn't leave space for dessert but they looked very good. Drinks were also awesome. My favorite was the queens crown! And the staff are all very friendly and helpful. Will definitely be coming back and highly recommend!

This is a cute, decent, hidden spot. The food is alright, could use more flavor, and the prices are expensive but that's downtown all around. The service is very slow but the food was hot and freshly made. The staff are really friendly and helpful. Theres lot of inside seating but the outside patio was really cute and spread out. Ketchup, hot sauce, salt, and pepper is all packaged, no bottles.
Fantastic choice for Saturday brunch; the environment is magical and the food was delicious. We felt like we were in Tuscany or the Dordogne. Truly one of my most memorable lunches. They also handled my father-in-law’s gluten free diet with no fuss.

Beautiful location with gorgeous outdoor seating. You pay for your food and drinks first and choose a place to sit. I ordered the breakfast burrito with bacon. Food came out pretty fast and was hot. Not sure what witchcraft they used but my food stayed hot the entire time I was eating. Food was delicious as well fantastically seasoned. All in all this was a wonderful place and if I'm in the area I will no doubt be back again.

What a great place to eat for breakfast. Super fun interior atmosphere but the patio seating is where it's at! Beautiful stone tile mosaics, lots plants and vines, great seating arrangements, fountain, and more, definitely the place to enjoy your meal. Our breakfast was very delicious and my chocolate white mocha with an extra shot was superb. I personally have never been a fan of home fries usually because there greasy and too salty but to my surprise that wasn't the case here. Lightly salted, seasoned with rosemary, and a light seared definitely cooked to perfection.

This is our go to place to have a nice and relaxing breakfast with or without the kids. I've been there with friends, cousins, family and it has always been great! Thank you the wonderful customer service. It really makes us feel at home.

We find, among many others I'm sure, that the patio at Cafe A La Cart is the most pleasant place to eat. The food is first rate, consistent in quality and quantity and the staff quite friendly. Not our first time and despite the rising gas prices, not the last trip south from Mesa for a great breakfast.
