It's a lovely French restaurant offering a classical breakfast. I appreciate that it also functions as a small French marketplace where you can buy some goodies. We ordered the Croque Madame, Ham & Cheese Crepe, and Beignets. While it was a tasty breakfast, I recommend ordering a salad with the Croque Madame, as the dish was a bit dry for our taste.

Orange County can be surprising. This little gem offers good croissants and omelettes. While the omelette (ham & cheese) lacked a bit of texture, it was well executed (perfectly cooked). The chocolate croissant had a rich butter texture and flavor. Good all around. I'll go back.

Small, convenient little café that serves French dishes. Ordered the brie & ham baguette sandwich and the savory salmon crepe. The sandwich was filling but the eggs in the crepe could definitely use more butter to make it tastier. Ordered the mint julep as well but it tasted like sprite. Overall convenient and will try the other dishes later when in the area.

Love this place! Have been a few times and it never disappoints! Love that they can make any crepe on buckwheat! Had their croque madame today and it was absolutely fantastic. I opted for the large as I can eat and I’m glad I did. Nice ambiance inside too. Plus, they have pastries and a great selection of groceries to take a little piece of France home.

So good I went twice in two days! The ham & butter baguette was the highlight, followed by the rustic veggie soup. Ham & cheese baguette & cappuccino also good. The almond croissant was tasty but very almond-flavoring forward (vs tasting like natural almonds) - this could be a personal bias & they might execute it perfectly for the region, just not my preference. I would absolutely go back!
