Cafe Patachou - Carmel — Restaurant in Carmel

I love this location when four or less of us are eating. If not, we have to go to a different location due to space. The staff has always been very good. My aunt from New York City who used to run her own deli/sandwich shop thought her tuna salad sandwich on a croissant was fresh and delicious. My favorite is the same as some reviewers have mentioned, the Cuban Breakfast. For the curious, it's seasoned black beans and rice, served hot with a fried egg and white cheddar, topped with avocado, sour cream and a spinach-jalapeño sauce. I always tell myself that I'm going to try something new, but can't resist ordering this. My brother always gets the pricey "Ora-king Sustainable Smoked Salmon" which is served with a bagel, tomatoes, cream cheese, red onions, olives and capers (lover of salmon and lox). It's my sister in law who is adventurous and gets something new each time. She has yet to be...

The only downside is that this place is local to Indy. We are from Missouri and we have First Watch but Cafe Patachou is...

Not worth it! I ordered avocado toast to-go and got a box of sprouts. This menu item cost $17 if you leave a 20% tip (which I always do), and it amounted to a thin piece of bread spread with the THINNEST amount of avocado that could possibly be used and still be visible. I order avocado toast frequently at restaurants and everywhere else I have been, serves a liberal amount of the avocado spread on their toast. I mean, that’s what people are ordering it for! This avocado spread was so scant it felt disrespectful considering the cost. What did I pay for? A fist full of sprouts that have no flavor and won’t fill me up? Maybe other menu items are better, but I would avoid ordering this! Unfortunately, this was my first time ever eating from a Patachou and I...
