The cannoli's were still perfectly crisp all the way through when eating some five hours after purchasing! One was a traditional cannoli with the traditional cream filling and chocolate chips all great quality. The second - was some type of coconut, walnuts and caramel which was out of this world! The napoleon was so light and crunchy, very delicious. And the eclair...pure heaven. The owner of the bakery was there when we went and was very sweet himself. He gave great descriptions of the baked delights and even gave us a free cookie while we waited to have our goodies boxed up. I cannot wait to visit this bakery again very soon! The very best pastries I have had in the Chicago area ever! I only wished we lived closer.

We went for the sachertorte. This whole weekend has been full of authentically themed cakes. The…read moreday before that was the Moskva cake from Beglrade and today was Sachertorte from Vienna. This was very rich and I loved the layer of apricot jam. The shop is cute......but I had to laugh a bit, as I wanted a cup of coffee to go with my rich cake. The girl told me "oh we stop serving coffee at 7 PM." I looked at my watch. 7:02 PM. They are punctual! So I enjoyed my cake sans cafe'. Some of the other desserts looked wonderful here too. I wouldn't make a special trip probably, but if I were in the neighborhood, I would absolutely stop by. This is a special treat. Not cheap, but very indulgent and worth every penny.

This place is phenomenal. To their baked goods, to their aesthetics, I fell in love with it all…read more The ambiance gives cute little French bakery, stocked with a smaller variety of imported French cookies and chocolates on one shelf and fresh baked goods on the pastry displays. The service was good! The gentleman was quick and attentive. The food was my favorite part, all the pastries melted in your mouth and everything was baked fresh. I didn't care too much for the matcha lemonade (I think my tastebuds didn't like the lemonade part) I wish this place was close to home cause I'd be here all the time!

Cute little shop in Ravenswood! My husband and I came here for a quick lunch on Friday. It's very…read moreno frills on the inside, but neighborhoody and quaint. For lunch I ordered the brie and fig sandwich which is served on an amazing crusty French baguette. Everything about the sandwich was super fresh! We got the kouign amann to share and unfortunately this missed the mark for us. It just wasn't as flakey and buttery as I'm used to! Based on other reviews, it sounds like I need to try the croissants next time. It's pretty pricey, around $50 (including tip) for two sandwiches, coffee, and a bakery item. I wish the sandwiches included a bag of chips and a drink to make it more of a complete meal and justify the price a little more.

I had the best cheese danish here on a Sunday in June. It ruined every other cheese danish for me…read more I finally got back towards the area and they did not have the same normal cheese danish. The danishes were oblong with either cheese or a split of cheese and berry. They tasted like other bakeries, so the thrill was gone. If I'm in the area I will see if the regular cheese danish was as delicious as the previous.

It was not my first time visiting, but I was coming back after a few years. There's a huge variety…read moreof baked treats at reasonable prices. I like that they have pastry baskets for the self-service because they're easier to carry than the huge metal tray (especially for children). This time, I got some cheese pastries for the adults and donuts for the kiddos. It was before 9am, and they sadly only had the strawberry churros, so I opted out. They have prepacked pastry bags available at a discount as well. Not pictured are the slices of tres leches cake and flan I bought because the leches spilled out of the container in the bag during transport. Muy triste that by the time I got to the cake, it was zero leches! Ten cuidado when traveling with tres leches.

Their menu is extensive and full of delicacies. "For here" orders come in very very cute glassware. Both drinks were good. The latte was sweet but that's on me for ordering such a sweet drink. I want to try a cappuccino next time. Or Turkish coffee. Baklava was FRESH like I watched them finish the tray and set it in the display case. I got the very first slice. DELICIOUS. Of course you need the house baklava. Worth the trip on the 81!! Cute surroundings

There is a robust menu of coffee and tea options, and the cases show off baklava, baked goods, and beautiful desserts. There is plenty of seating as well. I ordered the cinnamon honey latte, and it was great. I would have preferred 2% milk to whole, but they only offer whole milk and milk alternatives (almond, oat, and soy). After doing an hour or so of work, I spied a nearby customer enjoying the lentil soup, a fave of mine. It looked like it was served with a couple nicely toasted slices of bread, which put me over the edge. I ordered it. It came with a large lemon wedge and... a cold ciabatta roll (the kind you usually see used for a toasted caprese sandwich). Sadly, it wasn't very appetizing, so went to waste, The soup was great, though! The place was busy during the 2 hours I spent there, and I hope it continues! I'd like to see this cute cafe stick around.

The place is self-service, and there are only about four seating spots inside, so it feels more like a quick in-and-out lunch place than a sit-down restaurant.

A good neighborhood option if you're looking for affordable Vietnamese food and don't mind a casual, limited-seating setup.
