Poor service, smallest $4 cappucino in town
by Cworld3
We had high hopes for this place as we had just moved to the heights and DaCapos is a few blocks from our new place. When we received our $4 cappucinos in mugs, they were 20% beverage and 80% foam. Was this a joke? - less than an inch of cappucino in each mug - and these were not wide mugs. I approached the counter and kindly explained that the cappucinos seemed a little small, and could we please get more. The clerk began to argue with me - yes argue - and explain how she made the cappucino and how the size was justified. I asked again for more cappucino, neglecting to mention that across the street they are twice the size and cheaper. She finally returned to the table with slightly heavier drinks, but the lack of customer focus and the argumentative clerk had already made my muffin sour. I'll not be returning.
- Pros: Dessert and quiche pretty good
- Cons: Overpriced, argumentative service, shorted on purchase
Excellent Tres Leches!!!
by checkerhead
In looking for a bakery, I came across Dacapo's online and read the wonderful reviews so decided to give it a try. We got the Tres Leches, and it was very yummy!!! This is one of the best tres leches I've ever had.....my brother who is VERY picky about sweets even raved about it and he's demanding we get him one on his next birthday!! WIll be going back here again for future cakes....can't wait to try some of the other flavors!!
- Pros: great tres leches, reasonable price for what you're getting
- Cons: parking

Killer cakes, great salads, friendly staff
by washaveguy
Work up on Washington Ave. and looked for a new lunch joint. Had a great salad(adam and eve?) and Lisa made a great red velvet cake for my girlfriends bday. Staff is always nice and helpful. This is Houston's best kept secret. Try it out for yourself.
- Pros: Great cakes, rockin' salads, great lunch joint
- Cons: parking can be tight
Cozy Cafe in the Heights
by agonz1979
This is the best cafe in the Heights so far! Everything on their menu that I've tried is exceptional. The staff there is very friendly. It's a very small cafe, but I highly recommend that you try it. Their Italian Cream Cake is the best! Please try it!!
- Pros: Everything
AMAZING....AMAZING....AMAZING!!!!!
by krb1971
We ordered this for our monthly birthday cake and it was the most amazing cake ever. It was moist and fresh. We had the banana split cake with strawberries, chocolate drizzle, and sugared pecans. I will never order another cake from anywhere else. They are THE BEST!!!
THANKS!!!!
- Pros: AMAZING CAKES
- Cons: NOTHING
WOW!!

Seriously, one of the best cakes I've ever had. I'm not really sure what kind it was...my friend ordered it for a birthday. But I am definitely going to find out!

by dkmunoz
Even better is the most delicious cake you'll ever put in your mouth...
Banana Split Cake....it is completely covered on top with sliced strawberies and drizzled with chocolate it is unbelieveable. Everyone that eats it wants to know where you got it!!! I have sent more people there. They are doing my daughters wedding cake as well. The goat cheese torte is fabulous as are the salads and sandwiches and soups. I've never had a bad thing !! D Munoz
- Pros: Everything I've had there has been fantastic and delicious
- Cons: parking
