"Food and venue were great, but this was the second time going and tables were unstable and the groups that they host were loud and you could not hear the person sitting across the table from you."

"Good vibe though, as others have stated, it can be a bit noisy but not in an annoying way. We chatted with the table next to us and had an enjoyable evening. Highly recommended but be prepared for higher than average drink prices."

"First time visit and thought it is a nice cozy spot to hang out with friends during Happy Hours. Strongly advise to come early for parking is very limited. Service was very good. Loved the Roof Top setting w/ DJ!. Salmon cakes & wings appetizers were awesome!! Dessert was disappointing. Cinnamon & nutmeg was too overpowering in the peach cobbler. Had the Red Snapper with grits & string beans for our entree. Fish & grits were good but VERY salty!!! Stunned that the head chef would allow this to happen; where's the kitchen quality check!? I mentioned to the waiter about the salty food, she quickly apologized and asked to have it remade. Unfortunate, it was getting late & I couldn't wait. I believe it's worth another chance & will go again"

"I used a groupon during my visit. Cafe Circa automatically added an 18% graturity for 2 people. I did not like thise. I would have tipped the appropriate amount on the value. I have purchased coupons at other establishments and never had to happen before. I will have to rethink whether I will ever purchase a paid groupon for this restaurant. Also the bottle of wine I requested was not available - find that hard to believe when its on the menu. Also I ask not to be sitted at a high top table because of knee issues. Restrarant was not accomodating and said the lower tables are being held for guests who need to put two tables together. SO the overall service is bordeline good."

"Great location and atmosphere. They offer cigars so that was an extra bonus for me. The rooftop deck was great. They have these huge heaters that makes it feel real comfortable on a chilly night. The only thing that bothered me was the time it took to place our food order. Our food came before our drinks, which is a big NO NO for me."

"My husband and I absolutely love this place. We came here last year for our anniversary, and have continued to come back ever since. One of my favorite spots is on the roof, when the weather is real nice. Will definitely be coming back soon."

"Cafe Circa was nice. It was small on the inside and they have a 2 hour maximum for their tables. The food menu is small but the items that I tried were delicious. I had the fried green tomatoes and the sweet potato fries. If you go, you definitely have to try to yucca fries. My friend had those and they were phenomenal. The music is way too loud for the restaurant and doesn't really fit the vibe that they have going. My friends and I sat at a small square table and still couldn't hear each other. I'm surprised my voice wasn't hoarse from all the shouting. Overall, it was a good experience but I don't really see myself going back unless a friend wants to go."

"Went to Cafe Circa for a date night. My first gripe would be - the cafe was too lit! I think it would have made for a better ambiance if the lights were dimmed more. The food and wine could have been better portioned as well; but very tasty. The band that played that night wasub-par! Overall, good experience. I will definitely patronize again!"

"One of the female hostesses was rude and sarcastic---she seemed to intentionally create a negative impression as we came and went; and, it stuck with us. It was as though she felt she had better things to do than work on a Friday night. The food and table service were redeeming, however---pure excellency! The lamb burger and strip steak dishes were phenomenal. Our server was polite, knowledgeable and attentive! If the interaction with the hostess hadn't been so tough to swallow, we'd have given this place five stars across the board."

"It was an enjoyable experience for our entire party of nine. We all enjoyed our meals. Six of us had the whole snapper, which was great in size and taste. Two of us had to take some of our fish and delicious stone-ground creamy grits home for breakfast. Service by the charming and friendly waitress added to the evening's enjoyment. One in our party was disappointed because the pork chops he had raved about were not available. When the chef made a courtesy visit to our table, he promised to add them back to the menu."

"I did not care for what I ordered (shrimp & grits) for entree, calamari for an appetizer. To be fair, I had my dish made w/o pork b/c I don't eat it. It wasn't bad, it just didn't satisfy my tastes and I came in with a taste for something else that wasn't on the menu (scallops). I also wanted the ox tails, I should have gotten that instead. My date however had the chicken, and it was really good from the small piece I tasted. The calamari wasn't the best I've had. Can't really say how it can be improved, but ive had much better. My server was great. Hostess sat us immediately. I saw other dishes from people around me that looked really good that I may want to go back and try. I heard its a better spot to go to in the summer."

"Service was slow. Overcrowded, people waiting for a seat are allowed to stand over you while you are eating. Automatically add 18% gratuity to our tab without your knowledge."
