I hate to disappoint you, but Cafe Splendide closed for good last year.  I tried
it once and thought it was nice.  The next thing I knew, it was gone.

Kramerbooks is expanding into Cafe Splendide's old space.  That will be nice because
Kramer's is alway crowded.  In addition, they may be able to do away with their 
minimum, which I think detracts from the laid back atmosphere.
