This cafe provides a spacious and relaxing atmosphere, though it’s a bit too dark for my liking. A little more ambient lighting would make it a better spot for chatting and working. The staff really shine here—always greeting you with big smiles and offering superb service. I tried the chocolate almond croissant, which was exactly as expected. It was a nice treat, though nothing out of the ordinary. A subtler sweetness and a fluffier texture in the filled sections would have elevated it. The Cortado was pretty average, too much bitterness, not particularly memorable. Overall, the friendly service makes this cafe highly likable and worth a visit.
Such a cute little hidden gem! We went for brunch on a Sunday and everything was delicious! You order at the counter then grab a seat and they bring everything to you. I've come here before and grabbed some pastries, but this was my first time sitting down and enjoying a meal here. The food came out promptly. My husband ordered the French toast and I ordered the Croque Monsieur. Both were wonderful! The line was long but it moved quickly. And don't bother reserving a table, because hey the time you order tables clear up and there's plenty of seating. We took home a chocolate chip cookie and chocolate almond croissant as well. Their baked goods are to die for!
I really wanted to like this place, but unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. My order was either missed or forgotten, and when it finally came out, it was packed to go—even though I asked to dine in. The waitress didn’t seem willing to fix it until I started getting up, so I just took it and left. The egg was dry, the cheese was nonexistent, and the sandwich had no condiments at all, which made it feel bland. The croissant itself wasn’t over-buttered, which I liked, but the overall sandwich was dry. The side of potatoes was cold and overcooked—they’re cut super small, so they soak up grease and burn easily. I enjoyed the atmosphere—it was cute, the music wasn’t too loud, and there was plenty of space to sit. Sorry, Oh La La—maybe it was just an off day, but I left feeling let down.
A beautiful French bakery in Pasadena. I love their interior design and wide selection of pastries. The coffee tastes great, and my kid loved their steak frites.
Tried this place for the first time. Bakery is OK. Not top notch. Fondry serves better baked goods. French Toast wasn’t good. Breakfast Burrito is good. Onion Soup salty. Flat White is a miss. Hojicha Latte was decent. On the whole this doesn’t match French level. Service is lacking. Long wait. So I’m not really sure why I’m paying 18% minimum tip (which is being calculated w tax) when it’s pretty much self serve.
