I am planning my best friends 40th birthday party. I checked out dessert noir to see if they would be adequate and they fell short of my expectations. The prices were not cheap, and the food was not great. I got the shrimp cocktail, it was a waste of the cocktail sauce. It comes in a huge glass with I believe 6 shrimp, it is a little spicy, and about 3 cups of sauce, no one needs that much sauce. I also got the brochette, it was extremely garlicky, I have had boring home made brochette that was much better. The desserts were good and the ambience as well. We also got the dessert sampler and it was very good, small portions but rich enough that you only wanted a small portion! We split it between three people. All in all it was not worth the $47 tab, and I do not plan on going back, okay maybe just for dessert.
Pros: romantic little cafe setting, good dessert and great hot chocolate
Cons: average service, okay food, hard to find, its on the back of the mall, not really on cedar hills.
