Café DIA

For museum food…. It’s not bad at all. It’s semi buffet. We are vegetarians. There were of course … the salad bar, which looked pretty hefty. Typical veggie soup. The sandwich kiosk bar didn’t have any vegetarian choices. The entree’s (steak?) kiosk didn’t have “vegetarian” labeled on the menu. Until I ordered a side of Brussels sprouts. The server told us that one side of the bar is a vegetarian meal. Vegetarian steak! And it was actually delicious! Even the Brussels sprouts!

Self-serve soup, salad and pizza bars. Grill offers hot sand burgers and chicken sandwiches. Mushroom soup was thick and flavorful, but found two large pieces of bay leaf while eating. The hot dog was all beef. The bun was fresh. The fries were cold. Not Luke warm, cold. They were replaced upon request. Those were Luke warm. The Korean chicken was not. Korean chicken is prepared like Katsu - boneless, splayed and hammered flat. This was a fried chicken breast with bbq sauce on a pretzel bun.

This place has a fantastic interior! It’s so unique and beautiful that it makes you wanna stay in and visit again just for the atmosphere. We took some lattes and the were fine! Service was nice and fast and later they came to pick up the coffee ☕️ cups from the table. There is a wi-fi, although it’s not super fast, so i preferred using a hot spot from my cell phone. Overall great experience and will be coming back more!

Besides the amazing art institute, you cannot miss the cafe inside. The food and drinks were all delicious and VERY affordable. The courtyard was stunning with pieces of art hanging around (the original Medici coat of arms can be found there)
