iCafe de Paris is a hidden gem nestled in the middle of international drives notorious icon Park. While I am not the parks biggest fan for a number of reasons, this cafe made the trip to the park worth it. I made the mistake of making a reservation at another restaurant in icon Park for my birthday. My partner and I drove for about 30 minutes to get to the restaurant from our house. I picked the restaurant specifically, since we had visited it in the past, with a totally different experience (which was about 9 months ago. The restaurant I am referring to is called 'The Sweet Factory', also inside Icon Park-also on International Dr in Orlando, FL. Please use those search terms to find my detailed review). To sum it up, we left that restaurant without even ordering because the service was so incredibly bad. I was feeling pretty hopeless after deciding to leave as we walked around Icon Park. We checked a few other restaurants that appeared to still be hoppin' with people, yet everywhere we went, the kitchen was closed or they just weren't seating anyone else for the night (it was only 10:30pm). I couldn't believe we traveled so far for a night that was seemingly ruined. I chose the wrong establishment to give the honor of celebrating my life with (again,it was my birthday), but, things ended up taking a turn for the better when we came across this little cafe. It has a cute, romantic, coffeeshop-in-Paris type of vibe. It has outdoor seating as well as indoor, and a menu that can satisfy just about anyone -but especially those with a sweet tooth. They have an extensive crepe selection, gelato, milkshakes, desserts, pastries, smoothies, even sandwiches and salads. I tried one of their frozen alcoholic beverages -a Pina Colada with a twist of strawberry (usually my favorite,). Unfortunately, I almost gagged after the first sip. I DO NOT recommend their alcohol menu. It was probably the worst Pina Colada I've ever had! But the service made up for it. The staff graciously allowed me to trade it in for a caramel frappuccino, which was delectable! We also indulged in the key lime pie, chocolate torte, and Oreo cheesecake. We needed bottles of water after that sugar rush! The coffee was the best part. In all honesty, the desserts were OK, not bad... But nothing super great. I am willing to bet that their crepes are to die for, though! The servers were all very friendly, the atmosphere was on point, and even though the dessert wasn't 5 star, the whole ambiance of the cafe saved my birthday. I am very grateful for the staff that served us, and turned my night around. I definitely recommend this place for coffee, breakfast, or a...
Read moreiCafe de Paris is a modern-rustic coffee shop on International Drive in Orlando, Florida. It offers a variety of light fare, including crepes, salads, and sandwiches, as well as espresso drinks and other beverages.
I recently visited iCafe de Paris with my family for a quick lunch. We were greeted by Becca, who was incredibly kind and welcoming. She helped us choose our food and drinks, and she made sure that we had everything we needed.
We ordered a variety of crepes, including the Nutella and banana crepe, the chicken and ham crepe, and the spinach and mushroom crepe. We also ordered a couple of espresso drinks.
The crepes were all delicious and well-made. The Nutella and banana crepe was a sweet treat, while the chicken and ham crepe was a savory and satisfying meal. The spinach and mushroom crepe was also very good, and it was a nice option for vegetarians.
The fries were also very good. They were crispy and well-seasoned.
The espresso drinks were also very good. I ordered a cappuccino, which was rich and flavorful. My husband ordered a latte, which he also enjoyed.
Overall, we had a very positive experience at iCafe de Paris. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was relaxed and inviting. I would definitely recommend iCafe de Paris to anyone looking for a quick and tasty bite to eat in Orlando.
Special mention to Becca for her kindness and excellent customer service. She made our experience even more enjoyable.
I highly recommend iCafe de Paris to anyone looking for a quick and tasty bite to eat in Orlando. The food is delicious, the service is excellent, and the atmosphere is relaxed...
Read moreI went for breakfast with my daughter and granddaughter thinking I was going to enjoy the food as I have in other French restaurants. I ordered the French simple crepe with ham, the bella Paris, a croissant with turkey, cheese, lettuce and tomato, hot cocoa, lemonade with fresh mint and a single espresso macchiato. My granddaughter was asked if she wanted whipped cream on her crepe with bananas and strawberries ( Bella Paris ) and she said yes and they asked her if she wanted whipped cream or marshmallows in her cocoa and she said marshmallows. My food came first and about 3 minutes after, my daughters croissant came out. I had to go inside after observing 2 other tables that were served their meals before my granddaughter got her breakfast. My check total was $81.84 for food that had no flavor, crepes that were rubbery and hot cocoa that my 10 year old granddaughter said tasted watery. I didn’t say much to my girls and I didn’t force my granddaughter to eat or drink anything she didn’t like which was almost her entire breakfast. After getting home I looked at my receipt and noticed the extra charges for the whipped cream and the marshmallows. I don’t care about having to pay for food if it was quality food but the truth is the reviews I did read weren’t honest about the tasteless food in this place. Furthermore, we shouldn’t have to wait in line to use the restroom in an establishment that we are eating in because people around the area choose to come in and use the bathroom too. We just needed to wash our hands before eating. While I understand that everyone has different experiences, I will never spend another dime in this...
