I met a colleague for brunch on a weekday and appreciated the festive decor felt very homey. Menu offers variety, but we both ended up ordering crepes one savory and one sweet. The savory one comes with a side of fries. Both were good, I think I prefer a thinner crepe but the savory one offered a thicker one so it was pretty filling. Overall 4/5 for value and execution. Not necessarily a destination spot but conveniently located and a decent option if you're looking for a quick bite. Pricing of the rest of the menu was on the pricey side for the diner feel.

Our table also split the pancake flight - we subbed out the Lemon Poppyseed for the seasonal pumpkin pancake and holy cow were the good! Pumpkin and Carrot Cake Pancakes were fantastic but the Red Velvet left something to be desired. Overall a great spot for brunch with something that is sure to please everyone.

The chips were fresh and salty, the way I like them, and the salsa was mild and tasty. I ordered the chicken fajitas and my wife ordered the veggie burrito. Neither one of our dishes disappointed. The fajitas were cooked fresh and served hot with soft shell tortillas. Plenty of chicken, beans, rice, and vegetables to stuff the tortillas. I even ordered more tortillas. The veggie burrito was huge and my wife brought the other half home and had it for lunch the next day. The prices were more than reasonable and the service was excellent and friendly. There is a public parking lot next door and across the street. It was a very pleasant experience and look forward to going again.

Not only was the ambience completely genuine with the decor so charming and quaint. The girls running it running around briskly speaking in French, but the menu was perfect. They had all of what constitutes a Parisian cafe with all the necessary American fusion additions. We only ordered soup and a bubble tea drink (irrelevant, I know!), all was fresh and nuanced and absolutely delicious. We told the girl we were in a hurry, everything arrived shortly, promptly and perfectly. I would definitely come back here to try other things. Worth coming to Metuchen now.

I wanted to try the country steak and eggs, but they were out, which was disappointing since I'd heard good things about it. Instead, I ordered the corned beef omelet with wheat toast.

While finishing my meal, I did bite into a small piece of metal, but I didn't make a fuss since it was near the end. Overall, if you want a simple, quick place to eat, I'd recommend it.
