Was Diane Mizell at Cafe Alfresco a mag?
Our first time there and it was absolutely amazing. Our server Dan was very helpful in answering my questions. The food was excellent. We had Feta alfresco as an appetizer, my husband had the urban sandwich which as enormous, son had fish and chips and I had salad with blackened salmon. View all feedback.

What Christopher Emanski dislikes about Cafe Alfresco:
We were puzzled as to why we weren’t being seated. Initially, we were told there would be a 15-minute wait at most. After waiting for 45 minutes, we checked in and were informed it would be “only a few more minutes.” However, after an hour of waiting, we noticed three groups who arrived after us being seated before us. Frustrated and feeling a sense of discrimination that I had never experienced before, we decided to... View all feedback.

This is a fantastic neighborhood restaurant. The service and atmosphere are excellent, and the food is very delicious.

The only reason I rated the service four stars is that after we ordered and received our food, I overheard another server informing their table about the Monday special. It would have been nice to have that information earlier.

Beautiful and cute restaurant right by downtown Dunedin. They have good ambience and good food options . I ordered veggie curry and it was really good. My friend ordered shrimp and rice and that was great too. Highly recommend this place if you are near the area.

Pup friendly patio with heaters! We drove into Dunedin today ,not thinking a lot of places are closed Mondays. After checking into our hotel Best Western at the Marina. We got our Pup out and started looking for a place for dinner and a walk. We have never eaten at Cafe Alfresco before. After asking about being dog friendly the lead us out to rhe patio. It was a chilly evening but, perfect with outside heaters . The food was delicious ? Fresh hot rolls, house salad for my Hubby with house vinegrette, perfect. Greek salad for me and Chicken Parmesan for him with a huge pile of pasta. Neither of us finished our meal, so much. Our Pup got some well deserved attention and Cucumber from my salad which he LOVES! I'd say it's definitely win with or without a traveling Pup. Sorry the pictures are a little dark. It was late in the evening

I've been here for 10 years and never a disappointment. Eat always delicious and it goes on the Pinellas Trail so you can drive your bike here or your golf cart!

Only tried the blackened grouper sandwich but it was a 5 star sandwich. The grouper was so fresh, cooked perfectly and the seasoning was tasty. My parents who live down here said it?s the best grouper sandwich they have ever had.

The last time Claire and I met for lunch, we met here for delicious food and great service. So Cafe Alfresco was a logical choice for a second lunch yesterday, 2/2/22. We were not disappointed. Once again the food was great (crab cakes and bean soup this time), and our waitress was friendly and attentive. We didn’t have dessert, but all of the selections looked extraordinary especially the carrot cake key lime pie. Cafe Alfresco is next to the Pinellas Trail a convenient stop for walkers or cyclists. If you drive here, and can’t find street parking, park in the lot next to the trail. It’s a short walk over to Cafe Alfresco.

It’s a very good experience overall and being fancy wasn’t pricey at all ! Unfortunately didn't catch the waiter name but he’s very professional Man! He mentioned the coffee is good which it really was !

Wing to a late lunch with new friends whose first names were the same as woman and mine. They suggested Alfresco, a local favorite of her downtown.

Casual and friendly bistro located on the main street of Dunedin. They offer light bites, comfort foods, international cuisines, and more. During our visit, we opted for healthy options. The salads were fresh, delicious, and big. We tried the Asian shrimpsalad $15.50) with mixed greens, tomatoes, onions, and cucumbers topped with big shrimps and crispy wontons then drizzled withThai basil vinaigrette. Very refreshing! The blackened chicken walnut salad $14.99) was also very delicious. The chicken wasvery tasty and tender. The fresh ingredients tossed in burgundy vinaigrette and topped with walnuts and blue cheese were aperfect combination of sweet and salty flavors. Delish! Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. The staff wasfriendly, especially our server Amy. She was very attentive and helpful. Our experience was a good one. We had a nice casuallunch on a Friday afternoon at Cafe Alfresco while enjoying the beautiful town of Dunedin.

Great spot on Dunedin trail. Food was good but when we walked in we felt like we bothered them coming in. Our waitress made up for it, she was great. Good menu selection.
