I love their house salad with a scoop of tuna. The bread is always fresh and the creamy dill is amazing! I also mix it with the herb vinaigrette which is so yummy! I even buy some dressings for the weekend sometimes. Oh and the Spicy Thai soup is great - light, not thick, but full of flavor. I'm hungry now!

The ham and cheese panini was so underwhelming, the bread was so thin, and absolutely tasteless. The chai tea was good. It feels like a great location , in need of some updates.

Cuz'n came in from out of town. So we met for a quick brunch.Very relaxing, fresh food, great environment & quiet/relaxing.
I'm sorry to say it, but I just ordered the green curry with veggies and tofu to go, and they left out the tofu. This is the second time I've had them make a mistake with this dish.
A few years back I got it to eat there and they put chicken instead of tofu in it. I'm vegetarian and need to make sure I have my plant protein in my meals, so won't be ordering there in the future.

Food here is pretty good but the service is really hit and miss.

I arrived late morning so, they were already out of my favorite ham and cheese croissant. I decided to try something different today. I ordered a ham and swiss panini sandwich. A vegetarian bagel breakfast sandwich. 2 tea mango smoothies and an iced mocha. My order was to go. When we got home I was eager to try the panini sandwich. After the first bite I was very disappointed. It had onions and some type of spread on it. I did not like the taste at all. The menu board did not state those items came on this sandwich. Unfortunately money in the trash. My son's were happy with the tea mango smoothies and my vegetarian son really enjoyed the bagel breakfast sandwich.

Good food. Sporadic quality of service but they do fill the sandwiches here much fuller than the Madison location. Not the most inviting atmosphere but a great choice for a to go lunch to take over to the William Land Park Rock Garden.
It must have been senior citizens day because pretty much the whole place was filled with 65 and overFor whatever reason it gave the atmosphere a relaxed enjoyable and pleasant experienceIt was our 1st time visiting this La BouI'll have to say that it's neck and neck between the Howe Avenue and the Landpark La BouEach location has its own vibe of serenity and you can make your coffee ☕ the way you want.

La Bou is one of tried and true favorites for a great sandwich and salad. Sandwiches come with the bread of your choice. Depending upon my mood I switch between croissants, baguettes and sourdough rounds. All are delicious and provide a nice size full sandwich. The sourdough is softer than I'm used to and that's a good thing. My normal sandwich choices are turkey, veggie & cheese and pesto & cheese. As for the salads I rotate between the house salad (the creamy dill dressing is so good), Chinese chicken salad, and La Bou chicken salad. The house salad has avocado, cucumbers, tomatoes, and crumbled swiss cheese. The Chinese chicken salad has a great flavored soy-sesame vinaigrette and the shredded chicken adds some protein. The La Bou chicken salad is a new favorite of mine because of the marinated chicken and included noodles. It's best to eat this salad the same day because the noodles don't store well. If you have never been, definitely give La Bou a try. They also have a frequent customer program that earns points based on purchases and eventually earns you values off purchases.

"It's a chicken salad." Best Chinese chicken salad ever! I drive from Roseville now to come to this specific location. Make sure to ask for the noodles on top. I've also been known to make the drive for their apple cake. Worth it! You'll love this place! Everything is fresh and delicious.

La Bou by the Zoo has been a local favorite since I was a kid. Tasty sandwiches, fresh baked goods, and delicious desserts are always on the menu.I love a classic tuna melt with fresh Caesar salad. Recently, I tried some breakfast items, and the bagel/croissant sandwiches are great options, especially in the colder mornings.Lemon bars and coffee cake are amazing dessert choices.Staff is helpful, friendly, and doing a great job in the face of certain challenges.
