Super cute breakfast and pastry place. I wanted to try their chili caramel croissant, and it did not disappoint! I was really fascinated at how these two flavors could go together, but they can, and they did, and it was everything! So the sugar has caramelized around the edges of the croissant so the first thing you taste is the sweet crunch, and just as you are enjoying those flavors you are hit with a spicy heat from the chili flakes! And the two flavors are having a party, it really is so good!! We enjoyed everything else, but the star for me is the caramel chili croissant!! The breakfast burrito was yummy, and the hash browns were fab too. Staff is super sweet and helpful too! A lot of parking, indoor and outdoor seating. I got there early, but I could see how they may sell out of some pastry items.

Nice place to meet with friends. Pricey, did not try fresh foods but prepared cupcake, brownie and such that were dry or just sugar.Very sweet staff who were patient. Was pleased to see gluten free options for our friend.

This is place is Terrible - the food is over priced and NO FLAVOR. Must be the worst breakfast I and my family ever had. Totally uneatable.

Me and my little girl grabbed some croissants from here and they were all so delicious! We had the mushroom, blueberry, and a butter croissant. There were so many delicious choices and we will definitely have to go back and try more. I'm also interested in trying some of their prepared meals. The signs said that all of their sauces are made on site. In fact I think everything is made fresh and daily there. The price is on the higher side, my 3 croissants were $15. But for me it was worth it. They were so flaky and buttery and just perfection! There is plenty of seating inside as well as some outdoor seating. Also parking is easy in an adjacent lot. The staff was very welcoming as well.

Kind of a bummer. $60 breakfast for my husband and I. Breakfast sandwich, Holly's special, two pastries, two coffees. I did not realize we ordered $10 lattes. This is the highest premium I've been charged for alternate milks. Over two dollar upcharge for lactose intolerant consumers, buyer beware.I also noticed the chocolate croissant was salty. I couldn't finish it.Holly's special was delicious, although my husband didn't like the dressing on the spinach.The coffee was not worth what we paid, I would stick to drip or skip the coffee altogether. It tasted burnt, not sure if the oat milk was burned or the espresso.To sum it up, good atmosphere. Love the customer service. Holly special was great. Be ready to pay what they charge, which I believe is fair for the food, but not the drinks. I'll be more prepared for the cost next time.

Absolutely horrible, ordered an iced vanilla oatmilk latte and a strawberry croissant total $19!!!! Hoping it would at least taste good, nope, unbelievably bitter, I asked if she put vanilla she said ya it's with vanilla. I said it's really bitter she took it back and asked me when to stop adding vanilla syrup!! How should I know???? Literally took a sip and threw it away on the way out Basically bought a Strawberry croissant for $19

I am a regular customer and I love we have this place in our neighborhood. The food is delicious in my opinion. Everything is home made, even the smoke salmon. The croissant are the best in town and the hash browns are incredible. Yes, the waiting could be overwhelming and too much at times. So, go very early morning or go without rush. The service is slow but very kind. Everyone is really nice.

The chef is amazing! My boyfriend and I both got omelettes and hash browns. Best hash browns I've ever tasted. My boyfriend got cheddar, bacon and onion omelette and I got mushroom, cheddar spinach and onion omelette. Both were delicious. Both the hot salsa and salsa verde were delicious. Our new favorite spot!

All of their food is of exceptional quality relative to the rest of the area and greater LA. Their croissants are exactly how one should be- crispy,flaky buttery with a cool doughy chew throughout. All their baked goods are excellent. It is not 'cheap' nor is it fast but it IS a reasonable value and worth waiting for.

the staff is very friendly and makes coming here lovely, but three time already where my order is just forgotten about and for the price of everything it’s starting to feel not worth coming.
