The Scene – Multicolored streamers twirl from overhead ceiling fans, and bright Southwestern colors and patterns abound. Due to the loud buzz and large space this restaurant is known for, it's a great place for kids--no one notices when they're noisy. Parents can relax with a cool margarita. – – The Food – The large menu appeals to those who want meaty Mexican food, like carnitas, as well as lighter, less traditional fare, like seafood pasta. The mahi mahi tacos with mango salsa (some assembly required), Baja rice and fresh veggies are light and refreshing. The…

CLOSED DOWN

Cafe Pierpont WAS amazing but, unfortunantly they are no longer open. I went there 2 weeks ago and they have shut their doors. Just an FYI.

Great fun, friendly staff.

by snowluvnferret

I've been to Cafe Pierpont on several occasions and have not been disappointed. I love the Baja Combo. And all the different salsas are good too. Last time there was with a group and the staff was attentive, friendly and checked back often. I'll go back.

  • Pros: Fun and lively

Trendy, not real Mexican

by gmanfoodie

The atmosphere is great and the kitchen looks like they know what they are doing. But when it's time for Mexican food I do not want a 20-something year old Caucasian saying "Hi, my name is ----- and I'm going to take care of you!" What is this- another chain restaurant?!?

The chips and salsa are good and it's great to try different salsas. It is also nice to sit outside on a summer day. The food is average to above average, just pricey for Mexican food.

  • Pros: Atmosphere, Salsas, warm chips
  • Cons: No authenticity, Pricey food and drinks
