Babette's Cafe, an Atlanta favorite with a friendly, casual setting offering cuisine that has been delighting restaurant goers since 1992. Located in a remodeled 1916 bungalow, with outdoor dining on a well-loved back deck and nestled between historic Inman Park and Poncey-Highland neighborhoods, it is convenient to Downtown Atlanta. Growing up abroad, Chef/Owner Marla Adams imagined a world where all dinner tables were full of simple, unique food with a touch of the exotic and a twist of the romantic and this continues to inspire her today. The menu is a fresh mix of French, Italian, Spanish and Mediterranean cuisine with classical preparations influenced by food from the European countryside; a rustic farmhouse. Offering her unique version of Tapas, Chef Marla thoughtfully prepares her "Really Small Plates" with a blend of Babette's slow food favorites and Rustic European style.
