I think I just discovered my new favorite restaurant for 2026! Why do I love thee?…read more 1. Gluten-free! All of their pastries are gluten-free and any of their sandwiches, wraps & bowls can be made gluten-free. 2. Service is outstanding! I came across them when I was searching for gluten-free cinnamon rolls. I drove down there but the rolls weren't ready yet. They said they'd call me in an hour when they would be ready, and guess what? They actually called! 3. They have lots of yummy coffee options. I tried the pumpkin spice latte and it was delicious! Speaking of delicious, their cinnamon rolls are an absolute must! They're fairly big in size with lots of cinnamon flavor and yummy frosting that isn't too sweet. They're also gluten-free! I also love their chicken quesadilla. I added avocado and it was so yummy! You get 4 slices and they are very filling. I also got a gluten-free tortilla wrap instead of their regular wraps. I've also tried their gluten-free Winner's Circle sandwich. Mine came with turkey, avocado, bacon & dressing (I took out the arugula and zucchinis). The gluten-free bread was soft and delicious! My husband got the Ahi Tuna Melt and he enjoyed that as well. They're located in the Orange Business Center (the shopping center near St. Margaret's Episcopal School). Plenty of shared parking is available in the large lot. Give them a try - you won't be disappointed!

As I stood at the counter I watched as my ticket was pushed aside for eat in customers. Customers that came in after me and were now getting served. I ordered 2 burritos, a chicken bowl and a carrot cake. What I got was a chicken bowl with white rice. The menu said BROWN. We received a brown bag with a handwritten note " Sorry we are out of carrot cake so here is Pumpkin cake or roll". I was staning there for 30 mins. WHY COULDN'T YOU JUST ASK ME. I don't like pumpkin. So I called Sunday and no manager there. I was asked leave a message and told I would get a call back which I did. Sunday and Monday no one called back. Tues I called again no manager. Left another message, and now its Tuesday night no one bothered to call me back. I don't like paying for food I can't eat. Pumpkin and white rice. Not the best customer service!!!!

One thing I love is that everything is freshly made in-house, and they have a nice variety of sweet and savory options. I tried their pumpkin spice latte and mini pumpkin pie, which were perfect for the fall season. For brunch, we got the Little France Club and French toast. We also sampled several of their pastries, including the hazelnut croissant roll, almond croissant, lemon macaron, and raspberry macaron. There's a little bit of everything here, whether you're stopping by for coffee and a pastry or sitting down for a brunch date. It's a great spot to check out if you're in the Mission Viejo area and want to support a local bakery

After reading the reviews on Yelp, I wanted to try a really good croissant, so I drove about 20…read moreminutes to come here. The bakery itself has a small, local neighborhood bakery feel to it. There were about four tables outside, and when I walked in, there were two display cases. One had beautiful, fancy-looking mini mousse desserts arranged so nicely, and the other was filled with different kinds of pastries. I really wanted a classic butter croissant, so I got one of those, an almond croissant, and an Americano to have with them. One thing that surprised me when I checked out was the price. A medium Americano was $6.50, the regular pastries were around $6 each, and the almond pastry was over $7. The prices felt pretty similar to what you might pay for pastries in France. At least they didn't ask for a tip when I paid, so I figured the higher prices probably already included some of that, which made me feel a little better about it. I went outside to sit down, but unfortunately, none of the tables had been cleaned or cleared yet. The empty tables were also sitting directly in the sun, so they were way too hot to sit at. (You all know how hot the weather has been in Orange County lately, right? ) I went back inside and asked if they could open one of the umbrellas, and they immediately came out, opened it for me, and I was able to sit down. I appreciated how quickly they helped. Now, about the croissants... I had pretty high expectations for the butter croissant because I had driven 20 minutes specifically because I wanted a really good one. Unfortunately, it wasn't quite what I had imagined or hoped for, so I was a little disappointed. The almond croissant was also much too sweet for my taste, and the center had a somewhat dense, doughy texture, so I couldn't finish it. There is a croissant I've had before that was **SO incredibly good**, and I've been searching for that perfect croissant ever since. I haven't found it yet. And honestly, the Americano was probably even more disappointing because of the price. At $6.50, I was expecting something special, but to me, it tasted pretty much like the $2 Americano I could get at a neighborhood donut shop. Maybe that's why the price bothered me even more. That said, I would still like to try the mini mousse desserts. They looked beautiful and definitely caught my attention. So maybe I'll come back another time and give those a try. I guess the search for my *perfect croissant* continues!

Everything tasted great, and purely from a food standpoint, I was happy with my breakfast. For reference, I ordered the Meat Lovers Omelette and a side of bacon. My biggest issue was the value. For what I ended up paying, I just didn't feel like I got enough to justify the price. Obviously delivery adds some extra cost, but even taking that into consideration, I was left feeling like it was a little too expensive for what I received. The food is honestly what pushes this up to 4 stars for me because it tasted genuinely good. Otherwise, based on the value alone, I probably would have landed closer to 3 stars. Good breakfast and definitely enjoyable food, but I'd like to see a little more value for the price.

Please deeply consider bringing back one if not both items. The scratch community will thank you!

Jen went with the Southwest Breakfast Sandwich and I opted for the Breakfast Burrito with Chorizo. Jen also had a cappuccino and I had a cafe mocha. Jen liked her sandwich and I tried a small bite. More of a lunch taste for me. My burrito was very upscale. All ingredients finely diced and the red sauce gave it a good kick. Jen liked my choice as well. A lovely woman was dining alone and Jen asked her about her dish. It was the BBLT and she highly recommended it, especially if you love bacon (hence the B.B. - double bacon). With breakfast out of the way, we looked at all their bakery options. Jen selected their Bananas Foster Knock Knock and a Lemon Shortbread Square. I went with an Original Knock Knock and their Chocolate Decadent Cake. Jen liked her Knock Knock. I'm saving mine but sure I'll enjoy. The store is large enough to browse items and not feel like you are in the way of others. As for dining, good amount of seating outside. Noise depends on who's there and how many. This is now in our breakfast/lunch rotation. I look forward to trying their salads, sandwiches or perhaps a burger.

They are known for their breakfast burritos and I went for shrimp and added avocado. The eggs were a bit dry and it needed a carb and some fat to help balance out all the protein. The salsa was flavorful, but overall it felt more like a high protein breakfast burrito. The tuna melt had a huge portion of tuna salad and a couple of pieces of cheese on top. It looked to be warmed in a panini press which wasn't able to actually melt the cheese and warm the interior. Felt closer to a tuna salad sandwich with cheese rather than a tuna melt. We also got an assortment of sweet treats with somewhat mixed results. The muffin we got was our favorite out of the sweet treats. The cinnamon roll was also good, although not the best we've had in the area. The cronut was tasty, but the internal layers melted together and lost the flaky internal structure. We were disappointed with both flavors of the strudel pastry we got with them being a bit doughy and not very flavorful. The donuts are on the denser side, but the standard donuts don't disappoint.

Great luxury specialty donuts, on the pricier side but if you want cakey and juicy plump donuts it's worth it. My overall favorite is the blackberry fritter!

Next will be to try the classic raised ones but for me if I'm getting a glazed donut I'll just get something from a casual spot. Definitely worth getting the fun flavors here!
