Cafe Ole - Menu

I had the brisket tacos for a takeout order and they were amazing. I haven’t found great tacos in Memphis before coming here. I definitely will return!

I had a great experience at the restaurant! The staff was friendly, and the location was fantastic. The food was not only excellent but also delicious. The outdoor patio is spacious, and they offer happy hour every day.

I wouldn't categorize it as Tex-Mex—it's truly authentic Mexican cuisine. I would describe it as Southern soul-inspired Mexican. The food was well-seasoned, and the drinks were fantastic. The service was excellent, and the prices were reasonable. I would definitely go back! View menu

The atmosphere is fantastic! You definitely have to order the beans by the bowl—thank me later for that recommendation. As for the tacos, the Memphis brisket was absolutely delicious. It’s a hidden gem! I got a bit carried away with those beans, but the service was excellent too.

The food was fantastic and exceeded my expectations. My waiter, Brian, was exceptional and greatly enhanced the experience. If you're craving the Mexican pizza from Taco Bell, this is definitely the place to go—it's the best I've had! However, the funnel cake did not come from Cafe Ole.

I understand that we came on a busy Saturday night (NOT). 1 table occupancy in the inside. But to be told to seat ourselves ?we located a table on the patio. Minutes later the SAME girl who told the man server to tell us to seat ourselves walks out with menus and utensils to seat a white couple. Still I waited, another server walks past us and proceeded to ask the couple who just sat down to take their drink order. At that point we CLEARLY got the message and will NOT BE BACK!! View menu

The music was blaring so loudly that it felt like my ears were in pain. Despite asking multiple times for it to be turned down, nothing changed. The tacos and rice were surprisingly tasteless and lacked flavor. My wife wanted to order a sangria but was told it was unavailable. Is there a Mexican restaurant out there that doesn’t serve sangria? The only redeeming aspect of Cafe Ole was a photo of Spuds McKenzie on the wall. We definitely won't be coming back. On top of everything, my wife was charged $6.00 for sweet tea in a small plastic cup, and she was even billed for a tea refill! Have you ever heard of charging for a tea refill? I certainly haven't. And don't expect to get complimentary...

Despite the restaurant being visibly uncrowded both inside and outside, we frequently had to request assistance from other staff members. As for the food, the chips were excessively greasy. Our waitress took a long time to take our orders, and there were moments when she simply walked past our table without acknowledging us. We even had to ask one of our guests to help locate servers. When the food arrived, it was decent but lukewarm. We ordered a Mimosa Bong, but had to get the first one replaced because it leaked while pouring. The gentleman who brought the replacement commented, “I’ll take care of that because you shouldn't have to deal with this on Mother’s Day.” After our meal, he also...

When we tried to ask the waitress questions about the menu and the mimosa bong, she seemed inattentive and rushed. We ordered drinks, including the mimosa bong and shots of Grey Goose. We noticed the bartender preparing the drinks, but they sat on the bar for some time. The waitress eventually brought over the shots but not the mimosa bong, repeatedly stating it would be ready shortly, even walking past the bar twice without picking it up. One of our group members went up to the bartender, who confirmed that the mimosa bong was indeed ours and personally delivered it to our table, as the waitress was nowhere to be found. Upon pouring our drinks, we discovered the mimosa bong was leaking. Wh... View menu
