My friend took me to lunch the other day at this cheerful little cafe,tucked away right behind US1 !. I've lived in the area for decades,and didn't know about this little gem. The place is bright ,immaculate, wonderful friendly service,and the sandwich that i had was scruptious..everything on the menu sounded great...and reasonably priced. Can't wait to go there again..and... More

I've been to many teas houses across the country. Every Easter I treat my Mother to a tea and I can honestly say this was terrible. My tea cup had lipstick on it..yuck they didn't properly wash it! The waitress never brought me a clean one and finally when I got one the tea was ice cold. The bread they... More

I would like to begin by saying how sorry I am that you feel dissatisfied with your experience at our beautiful little café. I was extremely surprised by your review as we take such pride in all aspects of our café, but especially our tea service. High Tea is a set price so your surprise in the bill is most... More

Prior to boarding our 10 night cruise out of FLL we wanted to find a great breakfast place. We found Hibiscus Cafe on Yelp and Trip Advisor. It wasn't easy to find by using my husband's phone GPS but we did finally find it. Amazing. It is such a quaint place with beautiful small chandaliers hanging from different points on... More

I've been wanting to go to Hibiscus Cafe since they opened sometimes life gets in the way. Anyhoo, I had a great lunch there. It's a great meeting place. Quaint, charming, friendly staff, good service. Had the chicken tortilla soup...fresh and delicious. The snicker doodle that accompanied the check was a great little bonus, loved the cookie it's was crunchy... More

While this is a pretty little restaurant and we really wanted to like it, our experience was an "F". There were 6 people in the entire restaurant and it took over 90 minutes to get three omelettes and some pancakes. Even when the food showed up, the quality was average and somehow the food was cold! The waitress was nice... More

First of all, please let me say how sorry I am about your experience at the café. That, indeed, was a horrible day and one that I’d frankly like to forget. We had hired a new chef to help out in the kitchen. He had worked the two previous days, presenting delicious, beautiful food and we were very excited to... More

We enjoy the breakfast specials and go there quite often on the weekends. A quaint, privately owned little cafe with good food and friendly service. If you have a chance it's definitely worth a try!

Party of 4. Sunday late morning is busy. Had to wait ~25 mins. Once inside it took quite a while before our food arrived. Although breakfast is served all day, the wait was annoying. The portions are not too big, which was nice. The salsa was killer. I ordered Migas( scrambled eggs with corn tortillas) not quite what I've had... More

Thank you for your review. I do apologize for your wait, but some of our customers enjoy our relaxed atmosphere. All of the food at our café is cooked to order so once in a while it can take a little longer, depending on what you order, but I can assure you, it’s always worth the wait! Hope to see... More
