Had a wonderful experience this past Wednesday at Cafeden :) my boyfriend & I visited to take advantage of the awesome $35 unlimited tapas + cocktails deal running on Wednesdays & Thursdays.

We arrived around 5:45 pm & were seated right away, & ordered our first cocktail. The team is small, but everyone is incredibly warm & friendly & made sure to check in with us consistently during our time at the restaurant, even as the place got busier & busier with other guests. We never felt rushed, & each got to try all of the tapas on the menu, as well never running low on cocktails.

The mojito is a standout, but all the drinks are poured generously & really tasty. We would absolutely return to Cafeden, & I'd 100% recommend it for a girl's night, a date, or an evening out with friends ❤?

It was our first time at CAFEDEN. We came during the tapas & cocktails special. The decor was modern, dark & trendy, with a beautiful bar centre-piece. The service was absolutely top-notch, the staff were genuinely friendly & super hard-working. The tapas were good (especially the causita), but the drinks were the star of the show. We tried the passion fruit cocktail, aperol, litchi cocktail, mojito; they were all beautifully presented, delicious, & not diluted at all. We plan on visiting again & bringing more friends as it's the perfect spot for a night-out.

Nous sommes venus célébrer l'anniversaire d'une de mes amies & tout était excellent. Denis nous a offert un service exceptionnel, tout comme le reste du personnel. La nourriture était délicieuse & les cocktails aussi. Nous avons passé une très belle soirée.

I had a disappointing experience at this restaurant. I was asked to wait for my order, but it ended up taking about 30 minutes, which is much longer than expected. There was no clear communication or update about the delay. Waiting this long without any explanation was frustrating. I hope the restaurant improves their service & manages orders more efficiently in the future.

Cannot recommend this restaurant enough. Absolutely amazing. By far the best calamari I've ever had. Food & drinks: 10/10.
