Very good pastries, food is pretty good as well

by adq1974

This place was packed. I had already stopped up the street for some light stuff to hold me over and I'm glad I did. By the time I made it to a chair I was starving all over again.

The food selection reminds me pretty much of the deli/prepared food section at Whole Foods. That's a good thing because it's tasty. Problem is that it's overpriced for what you get (reheated stuff really). The meats aren't exactly the best quality either. The soups didn't taste much different from the stuff I get at Au Bon Pain close to where I work yet it's much more expensive.

Service is average but again, not good when comparing it to other places where you'd spend this kind of money. It's not that they're rude, just very busy, and therefore kinda aloof. Don't get me wrong, you're not paying Ritz Carlton prices here, just more than what I would expect for the quality of food you're getting in the decor that you are enjoying also.

• Pros: The pastries I did try were very good
• Cons: Overpriced, service is too busy to pay as much attention as they should, decor is very average, noisy, crowded, long lines

Amazing Brunch!

by kristinem

When you go there for a weekend brunch, prepare to wait a little while. It's definitely worth the wait, though! Their food is fresh and tasty. Everything is also aesthetically pleasing. I definitely recommend this place; one of my favorite places to brunch at!

• Pros: great food
• Cons: long wait
