First of all we do not live in Decatur City(Square). But for the past three days, this President's Birthday Weekend, we might as well have. Today was our third dining trip to Decatur. And we've been wanting to try Cafe Lily for some time. We did not have reservations, but arrived early, and were seated almost immediately. How refreshing to not be in another corporate clone destination. This place had a true Bistro vibe. The menu was creative Mediterrainean, and was wonderful starting with the Cheese Fondu. We both had the grilled Greek Steak rubbed with Olive Oil and fresh herbs. Terrific. The wine list offered items, we rarely see outside traditional Greek menus. And service was oh so nice. And the owner paid a personal visit to our table, which made the occasion more special. Escape from the ordinary, and into a true Bistro!
Pros: Creative Romantic Mediterrainean Bistro! Personable Owner!
