Been there lots of times when visiting the UK. Loved the food, decor and atmosphere so much I proposed to my wife there (she was the main reason I kept coming to the UK). The whole staff helped to make it a special occassion. They'll always have my business.

Don't bother with a starter, you won't need one. The Fajitas come served for two but if you ask them they will let you split them so you can have half chicken and half lamb, or half duck and half steak for example.The frozen cocktails will put you on your back if you have a couple. Without doubt, the best tasting and best value for money restaraunt I have ever eaten at in the UK. And believe you me, I've eaten at a few, you should see the size of my gut! Highly, highly recommended! Two of you can have fajitas for £22 between you, bloody marvellous!

Always had a fantastic time here - esp as now fully non-smoking - but I am also disappointed by the Fri/Sat booking rule. Perhaps if deposits for large parties were taken.........?

Having eatern there a few times and always enjoyed myself I am now sad to say I am disgusted with the arrogance shown by this restaurant. I recently tried to book a table for 6 people on a saturday night. Firstly I tried to book a table and was told they had just opened and they would call me back. That would have been fine with me if they had ever bothered to call back. Then the next day still trying to book a table I was informed on Fridays and Saturdays they only except bookings of four or less. While I can appreciate they are busy and I have always had a great time in the past (hence trying to go there for a birthday) I can not understand this policy. I am glad to say there is a new Mexican opening in canterbury. Which will no doubt help Cafe des Amis keep there numbers down.

Always welcome you with a genuine warmth. Never had a bad meal, but banned from having one of their afters, spoil your cholesterol levels for a month, but well worth the risk.

This restaurant excells at transporting you out of the UK. It is far too relaxed, too consistantly good and too consistantly inexpensive to be in the UK. I eat there about twice or three times a week since 1986. I have eaten in restaurants all over the world and for it's type this is one of the best. Quality ingredients, good kitchen staff, friendly waiter / waitresses (without being over eager), great atmosphere, excellent management / ownership especially Frenchman Xavier and main owner Bill who now lives in Maui. Food is French / Mexican.
