What is Cuisine of the American Tropics?
Cafe Josie features a unique style of cooking that draws on ingredients from nature's "Equitorial Pantry". This narrow band of the world situated 25 degrees North and 10 degrees South of the Equator includes the Asian Tropics, the Mediterranean, areas of North Africa, the Middle East, and the American Tropics. Virtually all important herbs, spices, chiles, fruits, and vegetables that are so common to everyday cooking originated from this geographical band, appropriately referred to as "The Spice Zone". Cafe Josie's cuisine features island-style grilling of fresh seafood, quality beef, pork, and poultry which is marinated and basted with roasted fiery chiles, tropical fruits, slow simmered sauces, and homemade dressings. Presentaions are bright, fresh, and vibrant; flavors are intoxicating and seductive. Well-known gourmet chef Charles Mayes has been able to capture, with Cafe Josie, Austin's current demand for the complete dining experience. Named after his daughter Josie, Chef Mayes has been creating at Cafe Josie since 1997. Centered between Lamar and Mopac in Austin's "West End District", the cafe is located in an old carriage house that was restored in the '60s into a restaurant space featuring antique doors and the original brick floor. The cafe is nestled within historic Pecan Square with our red and black stucco sign being visible from the corner of West Sixth Street and Blanco.

Cafe Josie is a part of "Pecan Square", so anywhere there are signs that designate Pecan Square is ok to park. More specifically, there is a parking lot at the corner of 6th and Blanco in front of Portabla and next to The Wally Workman Gallery that is part of our parking. Also, if you take a right on Blanco Street and then a left in the first alley, you will find a parking lot behind Cafe Josie. If both of these spots are full then we recommend parking along Blanco Street. For more information about directions or parking please call 512-322-9226.
