I think it's a complete lack of respect for the customer to charge $50 for such a ridiculously…read moresmall cake. When we saw what we received, we honestly couldn't believe that was what we had paid for. The price is completely disproportionate to the size of the product. There's a difference between charging more for an artisanal product and setting prices that make customers feel like they're being taken advantage of. For $50, you expect to receive something that actually justifies the price, not something so small that you're left wondering how it could possibly cost that much. We left extremely upset and disappointed. As customers, we feel like we wasted our money. They seriously need to reconsider their prices and be much more transparent about the size of what they're selling. To me, this isn't offering a premium product; it's charging an outrageous price for a minimal amount. After this experience, I would not come back, and I definitely would not recommend this place to anyone.

We stopped by Panterelli after the West Seattle Sunday Farmers Market, wandering in after hearing…read moreabout the best Choux pastries in Seattle. There weren't any other customers inside and we were greeted with an empty display case in the front. While barren, the owner, a gruff* French gentlemen, confirmed that he still had choux pastry left with a choice of either vanilla, coconut, pistachio, or hazelnut. We decided to go with the pistachio, which he assembled fresh for us, first by piping pistachio cream inside the choux shell, then dipping in melted chocolate and sprinkling pistachio on top. Pistachio Choux ($6) - The choux is excellent, baked until deliciously crisp on the exterior while the inside remains soft, eggy, and tender. Since it's fresh filled and we ate it right afterwards, the cream never migrated to saturate the crust - I suspect people with issues with mushiness probably let the cream puff sit too long before consuming. The cream, which is piped to the brim, pushes out against the delicate shell, causing each bite to almost squirt out a bit of the luscious, silky whipped custard. The cream coats the lips and mouth with a layer of fat. It's not too sweet and has a light nutty pistachio flavor. The melted chocolate the top is dipped into glues on all of the pistachio dip. The chocolate is slightly bitter, yet sweet, so it helps cut through some of the rich silkiness of the cream. The pistachios on top act like a crumble, perhaps pulverized and melded with butter to create a very rich yet pistachio forward mix. It's strongly flavored, and the chocolate creates such a strong cement that none of the nuts detach while eating. (5/5) Panterelli was a huge surprise as it wasn't even on our radar until we walked past the shop randomly while exploring the Farmers Market. It's a definite revisit in the future! *The owner isn't nearly as welcoming as a typical American small business owner, but is certainly friendly and eager to chat. I also love his attitude - looks aren't that important; it's the taste the reigns supreme!

The flavor combinations of their pastries are unique and tasty, but be sure to go early to have your pick! Their savory options are so good too - the chorizo quiche is one of the best I've had and the rajas con crema hojaldre is great. Out of the pastries, my favorites so far have been the cardamom panela bun and earl grey and blueberry concha. Friendly service and seating available inside the cozy and cute cafe. My first time trying this place was for a big pre order and I had a smooth experience.

When we entered, the owner was working alone but she greeted us warmly. She told us to let her know if we had any questions, which we appreciated as there were some words we didn't know. I appreciate that the menu isn't too overwhelming and we were able to make our selection quickly. Unfortunately, they were out of guava so I couldn't try the guava matcha so I got their Salvadoran horchata and my boyfriend got their cafe de olla cold brew while I got the canela roll and he got their chorizo and papa quiche. Since we were the only ones there, we were able to get our food and drinks pretty quickly. We asked for the quiche to be heated it up and so glad we did as it was one of the best quiches we've ever had. We both told her that it was absolutely delicious. A little bit after, we got our drinks and it was made to perfection. I was a bit worried as I wanted the guava matcha but the Salvadoran horchata was definitely a fun twist as I've had horchata before. The owner did recommend the butterfly matcha so if you still wanted matcha, definitely give that a shot. I just wanted something more on the sweeter side. The interior is very beautiful and bright. There is plenty of seating so you don't have to worry about just grabbing and going as I know many of us enjoy our coffee and talk/study sessions. There is a counter with napkins, hot sauce and accessories like cup sleeves too. My boyfriend and I were talking about returning to this place so we highly recommend checking them out.

They serve delicious local coffee and tea as well as local pastries (from both Macrina and some baked in house), as well as breakfast sandwiches, focaccia, and also vegan soft serve made with oat milk. The soft serve has rotating weekly flavors, and I was lucky to try to orange creamsicle, which was delicious swirled with classic vanilla. I even got some sprinkles with it! For coffee, they have all the classics as well as some seasonal specials with in-house made syrups. Everything we ordered was delicious that we actually ended up getting 2 lattes while we were there. Apart from the food and drinks, they also have a plethora of local artwork for sale, paintings displayed on the walls, glasswork and ceramics at the windows, and tie dyed shirts made by the owner himself, plus more. They also sell pokemon cards and run an actual Play! Pokemon league. It runs every Saturday from noon to 4 PM and is run by the owner himself. It's a great place for both newbies and kids trying to get into pokemon and seasoned veterans alike. You even get discounted coffee during the pokemon session! The owner himself is a very personable guy and is very knowledgeable all about his products, and is always happy to chat about coffee, art, or Pokemon. There's a clean maintained bathroom in the back of the cafe and self-pour water stations to make your stay enjoyable. They have wifi and comfy seating, outlets, and even couches, which makes it perfect for coworking or just hanging out. Catch me there every Saturday with my pokemon cards!

I do love a fun drink so I tried the Cardamom Rose Latte this recent trip and it was delicious, a subtle flavor, and not too sweet! You order at the counter and then wait for your name to get called to grab your food/drinks before you go sit down. The service was fast and I got to sit in the rooftop patio for the first time which was great. It was a kind of sprinkly day, but thankfully part of the rooftop is covered. You can even see a peak-a-boo view of the water from up there. Parking is always kind of annoying here, but at least it's free because I always end up parking in the nearby neighborhoods. Overall, a great Thursday and I will definitely be back!
