Dessert Noir Cafe

I was happily surprised to find a restaurant in Beaverton with so much character. The restaurant is quaint with good reasonably priced food. I enjoyed the pan-fried chicken with mushrooms in a marsala sauce. The desserts were good. All the food was beautifully presented. The wait staff varied on knowledge, but this may be because the restaurant has only been open for 2 weeks. I plan to go back and try their tasty Happy Hour which is 4-7PM M-F. Pros: Inexpensive, Presentation of Food, Quaint atmosphere Cons: Staff's knowlegde more

The menu is unique and intriguing. Waitress was friendly and attentive, however she lacked knowledge of the wines. I ended up drinking a very mediocre chardonnay. I started my meal with the bruschetta; the tomato topping was flavorless and the toasted crostini was burnt. The spinach citrus salad was my entree'; the dressing was tart, the mandarin oranges were sparse and the presentation was plain. In an attempt to alter my opinion I ordered an Irish Coffee and the Crepe Noir: The coffee tasted old, the fruit beside the crepes was unpleasantly tart and dominated the plate; the crepes lacked flavor and the texture seemed pre-packaged. The lemon marscopone was very limited as the only source of flavor, and the overall dessert presentation looked amateurish. I truly hoped to become a regular (before movies, after shopping, etc.) at this cute restaurant but, unless the food improves, I can't justify it. Pros: Cute, Good service Cons: Food not good more

This place has great drink desserts. I reccommend the chocolate rasbery truffle drink. Great selection of drinks and now they have a happy hour from 3-6 pm. Pros: Drinks, Desserts, Location Cons: Addicting Drinks more
