Most people come here for the mimosas and brunch on the weekend. The food is Americanized Mexican food, like nachos and fajitas. It can be a fun spot when there is live music during brunch and you can have a few drinks. Other than that, I didn't find the food to be exceptional.

I was in the neighborhood because I had a tattoo appointment, so I stopped in for lunch. Lunch was really quick. I think it took me longer to get my check then it took me to get my food.The food was okay. Not bad but not excellent. I ordered the chilaquiles, and the server told me the owners were considering taking it off the menu because no one ordered it. Having had a lot of authentic chilaquiles in many spots, I would probably call these nachos instead of chilaquiles... But they had good flavor.

Wasn't a big fan of my food, but the service and atmosphere was great. I didn't realize it was mainly a place for drinking before we went so that's on me. It wad also super expensive. $75 for my two kids and myself and husband. No alcohol was purchased.

Vernon is the best bartender, and likely the best thing about Memphis.

The food was terrible. My nephews spit it out after one taste. I thought they were exaggerating, but when I tasted their food, I did the same thing. The cocktails were either too strong or completely watery. The only good thing was the chips and salsa. I don't think they make that.

This place is BAD! Like kitchen nightmares with Gordon Ramsey BAD! Please avoid at all costs if you don't want the fun and joy sucked out of your day. They serve a beer on draft that tastes like you're drinking chile pepper juice. The food I received was far from fresh, had obviously had been cooked earlier and reheated... eggs and bacon very gross. Other people in my party had issues with their food as well.

Food is mediocre at best - at least the vegetarian fare. Couldn't get the order right. Not busy the day we went and still messed up orders without an apology or correction. Yelp doesn't allow 0 stars.

It was slightly burnt and the steak was sorta of watery like it was warmed versus cooked. My daughter asked for another glass of water and never received it. My Margarita had sugar on the rim to which I prefer not.

Five dollars for a side of beans and they are ICE COLD !! LITERALLY STRAIGHT OUT THE FRIDGE and I asked where they supposed to be like this and her response was the kitchen is closed I can't do anything about but the kitchen wasn't closed when I placed my order this is definitely not worth five dollars. And why does it smell sour??? Eww tf
I tried the Mexican pizza it was soo crunchy great flavor I will definitely return.

Our dinner experience at Cafe Ole was truly exceptional. The menu offered an array of enticing options, making it challenging to make a selection. We kicked off with bacon-wrapped shrimp and brisket-stuffed jalapeños as appetizers, followed by Chili Relleno and Chipotle Chicken for our main course. Every dish was a delight, and even the chips and salsa were outstanding. This restaurant is undoubtedly a place we plan to revisit in the future.

This use to be the place to go especially the patio but now not so much the food is just ok the drinks are not good and over priced I do like the bacon wrapped shrimp so I decided to stop this wkend and get a order to go also got a mex pizza $40 the prices are ridiculous now all these different fees 18% gratuity on a to go order now I see why it's not crowded anymore ?

First off, we waited 15 minutes for the hostess to notice us at the door. When he finally came over, he told us it will be 20 minutes for a table. The restaurant had 10+ empty tables and they were NOT busy at all. The hostess which I believe was the manager as well look disheveled and dirty. We were finally sat at a table and about 10 minutes later a white couple who was behind us got seated. The server did not come to our table AT ALL. She went to the white couple and took their drink orders and took them chips and salsa. She also checked on a table that was RIGHT BESIDE us and took the white couple that was seated when we got seated their food. At this point it had been 20 minutes just being seated. She never even looked our way. When we flagged the manager down to tell him he did not try to remedy the situation at all nor did he apologize for their service. He just said “well, what’s your drink?” so we decided to leave. Not that they gad, but I won’t visit those 304s again.
