Their croissant is not really a croissant.Only the names of items in the menu and their prices are authentic French.

The Onion soup was good, it was verry filling and tasted great, I would recommend to try it. The raspberry and strawberry tarts were also amazing, they are similar but each taste flavorful and delicious. I would recommend coming here the atmosphere is great, the food tastes good and the workers are nice.

I loved everything about this restaurant. They make the most perfect croque madame. The dessert was absolutely delightful too. The staff is very helpful and friendly.

Their iced lattes are basically a large cup of milk - they must only do a single shot so always ask for two.Asked for a to go, workers were understandably frazzled (it being the weekend rush hour).However they misplaced my coffee as they put it on a carrier, and it proceeded pop off and to spill inside my car.

This was my second visit and I still love it. This time, I got the French onion soup. I would have preferred the croutons to be a bit smaller, but the taste was spectacular.

We’ve been coming here since they opened. Buying bread here consistently. Today when the loaf we got was not at all the same as it has been for the last two years (instead of loaf of bread it is basically a pita with no way to serve anything on it). I called to ask about it and after being transferred three times, instead of trying to solve the issue the owner (?) wanted to argue that the bread was the same as it has always been. Why would I waste my time calling if this is the same? I’m trying to resolve an issue not argue. Where is the customer service?

OMG the hot chocolate is to die for! Like drinking a melted candy bar and served with milk and whipped cream. Just like I've had many times in Switzerland and France. Spot on! And the Pain Au Chocolat was amazing and they warmed it up for us. Lots of seating. Definitely a go-to spot from now on!
