Overall, Chez José Café is a warm, family run spot with a cozy, artsy vibe and food that many reviews describe as delicious, comforting, and generously portioned, featuring Portuguese inspired dishes, crepes, soups, pasteis de nata, and vegan and vegetarian options; the atmosphere is often praised as welcoming and charming, with attentive staff and a homey feel, though the space is small and can be crowded, wait times can be long and service occasionally slow during busy periods.
Amazing food & service - only downside was the wait time but thats not something they can control! It was really busy too so we waited like 45 minutes to get seated in the blistering heat. But again, not their fault they have a line-up! Good for them. Defs recommend this cute brunch spot.
Its a very small place with outdoor tables. Although we waited for an hour to get a table outside, but it worth it. We loved the food & staff were lovely & nice. I will recommend this place to everyone😍

I had to write this review the moment I left this restaurant. I am genuinely impressed by the quality of the food & the speed we got our plates. Not to mention that it was super tasty & delicious, but for a breakfast I had a strong meal, perfectly prepared & well balanced! Charle our waiter was very kind & friendly. The service is great with good recommendations. I was particularly pleased with the Natas & their coffee is really good! This is such a small restaurant but with big potential & even bigger heart! Absolutely recommend!
Nice spot for Portuguese style brunch, we liked the food although it can use some more seasoning. They have a variety of vegan & Gluten free options, our waiter was super nice & accommodating. The place & the vintage vibes are nice, but they have a single bathroom & it can use some tidiness. Would definitely recommend if you're ever around the area.
Had a late night dinner here. Didn't even look at the menu but just trusted in the recommendations & was not disappointed. Had a Mexican style crepe that was phenomenal. Dessert was a Portuguese tart that I recommend not using the provided spoon. Just grab & eat in with your hands. So delicious & worth a little mess on your hands.
Insanely delicious food & top quality service. This family run restaurant is top tier. I had plans to go somewhere else, but then found this spot & the vibe instantly attracted me. The vibe was 10/10, & the waiter suggested the meals & he was spot on. I had the Mexican crapes & the egg tart for dessert. Highly recommend visiting this spot if you want a delicious meal & good vibe.
