Located a few minutes away from Audubon Butterfly Riverview Park, Patois has been a favorite date spot for those in-the-know for years. It's a classic neighborhood restaurant set inside a cottage, and its cozy and inviting interior and welcoming staff just feel right. The food matches the mood with a French-Creole flair. There's plenty to dig in to on this menu, but deviled eggs topped with wonton noodles and furikake seasoning is the twist on a staple that you didn't know you needed. The Cuban Madame is a brunch favorite, served with ham, smoked pork, gruyère and manchego custard, plus a sunny side up egg. Order a wedge of key lime tarte for dessert.
