In Short
Pale green walls lighten the high ceilings and airy interior, while an earthy brick floor warms it up. The clientele tends toward couples and the downtown after-work crowd. Cafe Josie is famous for its soups, but also… Read Full Editorial
Excellent! by Daun S via Insider Pages on 6/18/2008
The food here was WONDERFUL! I got the chipotle Mahi Mahi and it was absolutely the best. Fish was cooked and seasoned perfectly and the "sunburst" sauce with it is probably one of the best things I've ever had! It's a "sweetish" sauce…
Not worth it by allenej via Citysearch on 2/19/2008
I went with a group of friends for my birthday celebration dinner. It is listed here as $ - Under $20; however, there were only a couple of menu selections that were under $20 (Management has told me that they are trying to get this…
Perfect in Every Way!!! by austin_sommelier via Citysearch on 10/16/2006
My mom, dad & grandmother were in town last weekend and wanted to have "a nice dinner". So, my wife & I took them to Cafe Josie. We'd never been there, but it had been well received on Citysearch & in The Fearless Critic Austin…
Best calamari ever by jcb1975 via Citysearch on 8/25/2006
I love this little restaurant! The food is always fresh, well prepared and interesting. I can always expect a new flavor or creative use of spices to pique my interest. Chef Mayes is constantly experimenting and turning out some of the…
One of the top 3 places to eat in Austin by smarger via Citysearch on 9/24/2005
I have been to 180 countries and had the opportinity to eat at many of the world's finest restaurants. Cafe Josie is as good as any of my top 10 choices. Not the best in terms of decor, but who eat's decor anyway... Keep up the great…
Excellent! by austincitygirl via Citysearch on 5/25/2004
This restaurant was perfect for a nice dinner out. Menu is a la carte ($20-$26 for entrees) and perfect for a special night out. It's quiet and romantic. The ahi tuna is absolutely amazing -- a must try. Desserts are all incredible. …
My favorite restaurant in Austin! by russelam via Citysearch on 12/15/2003
I love this place for many, many reasons. Let's start with the food - it's excellent! I've eaten at Cafe Josie several times over the past 2 years and the food has been excellent every time. I love that they serve food with a tropical…
No Substitutions by recruit911 via Citysearch on 6/6/2003
I have eaten here a couple times for lunch and have not been impressed either times. The second time I ate there is the reason I'm writing. I had the chicken breast which came with a side and on top of cous cous. I am on a strict diet…
Nice experience by branv via Citysearch on 5/1/2003
We stumbled across this place, wasn't aware that it was more of a finer dining experience. Considering I was wearing jeans, a tshirt & flip flops, I could have gotten "the eye", but service by the hostess & waitress was gracious and…
Excellence by riverdale via Citysearch on 1/4/2003
Great people, great atmosphere and excellent food.
Easy to get to and find. You find that the portions and perfect and that the chef and staff are knowledgeable with out pretense.
Best Restaurant in Austin by imacager via Citysearch on 1/3/2003
I've lived here for eight years, and Cafe Josie is the best place to dine in this city -- for a nice dinner or lunch. Hands down. Try any of the fish dishes -- always fresh. We can't figure out why it isn't always packed. Go dine. My…
austin's best kept secret by gctex via Citysearch on 7/25/2002
Why isn't this place more crowded? I guess everyone is at Macaroni Grill or Eddie V's. Shame on Austin for clamoring for great restaurants all these years but now that we have them, everybody and their mother can't wait to go to the Cheese…
