It’s a Very nice place for casual drinks and dining. Very cute rooftop. The dishes and service were great, would be perfect if the crispy duck leg was less dry! Will definitely come back for the drinks
Yes, yes, a thousand times yes! This place, the food and the staff are incredible. Some friends and I hosted a bridal shower here and everything was better than I could imagine. The patio is beautiful. The management is so flexible and kind. The chef outdid himself. Staff are amazing. I felt so welcome. I would not hesitate to come again.
This is a very nice restaurant. The food was all delicious, even the desserts, and the location and the staff were wonderful. The macarons are very pretty. In the picture I ordered the tiramisu. I would love to go back again. Thank you.
I came here looking to see what the options were for cakes for my cousin's birthday celebration. I found and bought the two pumpkin cheesecakes they had on display. $35 each, which isn't horrible. They tasted amazing and everyone loved it. I'll keep this place in mind for other baked goods. Apparently they do sandwiches, too, so perhaps a lunch stop might be in order soon.
such nice people and delicious snacks - but their ‘’lattes’ are more often than not given to me from premade boiled coffee mixed With frothed milk Vs espresso shot and frothy milk. It’s so frustrating and keeps happening. Update: Changing from two stars to one. Today my family and I had their chicken salad sandwiches for lunch thought the Mayo looked a bit dry and bread was kind of old crunchy Vs. French baguette crusty. It tasted ok / we were starving so we ate it all. All three of us had a horrible bout of food poisoning repeated vomiting, nausea and awful situation overall. We skipped breakfast due to errands so I know for sure it was the lunch. I think we’ll only stick to their overpriced delicious desserts from now on Vs. the not so fresh food. Too bad, since I love their ambiance and the owners are really awesome , but paying $40 for 3 poisonous sandwiches isn’t my idea of a placid Sunday.
It is a fine French bakery downstairs, and a bistro style restaurant upstairs, Charming for lunch. Just what you would expect of a French restaurant in the USA: quiche lorraine, croc monsieur, salade niçoise, steak frites, etc. I had the steak frites which consisted of a small hangar steak, perfectly cooked rare, with fries and a salad Bakery is very good. From croissants, cookies and sandwiches to classic pastries such as palmiers, allumettes, opera, mille feuilles, profiteroles, éclairs, and macarons. Quality is consistent, but while it will satisfy, it might never knock your socks off. In the many years I've known this restaurant/bakery, it has never deviated from good middle of the road, French food. A comfort to some and a bore to others.
The ham and cheese croissant is pictured in my post. The chocolate mousse was okay, and the chocolate cookie contained apricot. The tea latte was tea with milk.
A beautiful, quiet brunch spot. My friend and I popped in for brunch after a hike at Great Falls. She had the smoked salmon branch crêpe with crème fraîche not pictured and I had the homemade chicken pot pie pictured. The pot pie was perfect comfort food, it had mushrooms and peas and carrots in addition to fresh roasted chicken. We also had dessert from the bakery downstairs. She had a orange marmalade crêpe not pictured and I had a crunch bar that has different players with hazelnut and wafers pictured.
My steak was rare as per the order however it was tough and lacked flavor, my daughter's drink order was not as expected. There's a lot good here though: salads, lamb stew and their desserts are delicious
Their online ordering needs work. Ordered ahead, it was not ready as promised, no place online to order beverages so I had to pay separate when I arrived and bakery items were not put together with entree. They made.me go upstairs to the restaurant to get the rest of my order. Very disorganized and the restaurant employees acted like it was an inconvenience. Disappointed. I work nearby and order from them regularly.
