Small and intimate restaurant with stellar food and drinks. Art Deco/1940s jazz Vibe with the decor and atmosphere music. It’s a limited rotating menu, so you know everything is good! String and delicious drinks. We will be making a point of stopping to eat here anytime we make a trip to St Joe!

Everything is made from scratch and WOW, the quality, presentation and taste are all incredible. Belle Epoque is a cozy, ambient restaurant with a beautifully gourmet and unexpected worldwide menu that’s a wonderful addition to St Joseph. The breakfast and brunch menus are full of variety and the lunch and dinner menus are showstoppers! A concise cocktail and wine list finish off this absolute gem of a locally owned family business. I also LOVE that they’re open 7 days a week.

I visit this place when it was recently open, at the time I loved it. I move from St Jo. And wanted to come back ; finally did it. No disappointment, I love the slow pace, atmosphere is to relax and enjoy food, service is excellent and the food it was great, I fell like this is kinda farm to table. The menu is well thought and portions are reasonable. Personally I don’t like big appetizers or desserts I don’t think they should be another meal but to complement your main entree. This time my husband and I visited for his birthday getaway night. Perfect for slow down after long week…

My husband and I visited last weekend for brunch! The food was very delicious, you could tell it was made from scratch. It does take awhile to get your food, but I feel like that should be expected since they make it fresh. I usually don't like eggs Benedict, however my husband got it and it was delicious! Our server was very friendly, and he was able to answer any questions we had. We will be back soon, I want to try one of the themed dinners they have on Thursdays!

Great time! We were welcomed on our first visit and enjoyed a nice brunch with excellent service! We're interested in coming back to try other menu items. FYI-the warm banana nut bread is scrumptious!

Ok, this was a true surprise. The atmosphere is great. Open, clean, and music at just the right volume and mix. Now, food has flavor and is elegantly done. You can tell the chef knows what she is doing and cares about what goes out. THANK YOU! Eggs Benedict were done perfectly! That is a rare quality.

The wood floors, exposed brick, tin ceiling, and antique wood burning stove gave cozy vibes to the setting inside this historic building. There was live jazz music setting the tone as well. The staff was amazing! Dani was delighted to help us make menu selections. We enjoyed our drinks, dinner, and most of all dessert. The chocolate raspberry torte was decadent, with a silky smooth texture that kept you wanting more!

Had a wonderful lunch date here recently and the food was delicious. Nice little cafe with perfe decor and a nice simple menu. Had the roast beef BLT paired with the French onion soup, both absolutely amazing!! Wife had the curry butter chicken which was also delightful.

Went for Valentine's Day dinner with my hubby. Checked in and we got to go to a couple of places next door for hors d'oeuvres and they call this winter table was ready. It was nice to visit some of the local nearby businesses. Everything was awesome...
