If I could give this place more than five stars, I absolutely would. This European bakery has been…read moremy go-to hidden gem for over 10 years, and every visit reminds me why I fell in love with it in the first place. I stopped in for lunch today and ordered their roasted chicken sandwich on freshly baked ciabatta warm, flavorful, and perfectly pressed. The side salad was fresh, bright, and balanced, not just tossed greens, you can taste the care put into even the simplest things here. My vanilla latte? Picture-perfect. The kind you'd take a photo of before you take a sip creamy, lightly sweetened, and made with love. But the real show-stoppers are the desserts. The pastry case looks like something out of a Paris pâtisserie rows of handmade creations that are as beautiful as they are delicious. Everything is crafted in-house, with real skill, pride, and tradition behind it. What truly makes this place special is the family that runs it. They are warm, welcoming, and genuine , the kind of people who remember you, make you feel at home, and pour their heart into everything they serve. Whether you're coming for breakfast, lunch, coffee, or a sweet treat (or all of the above!), you will walk out happier than when you walked in. A must-visit, a local treasure, and without question one of the best bakeries I've ever been to.

I ordered the Smoked Salmon Avocado Toast with scrambled eggs and a side of grits. I'm glad we walked there because it was a lot of food. The lox were fresh and there was an ample amount of avocado spread on multi-grain bread. Plus I loved the fact that it had grilled onions, tomatoes and capers served on it. It was served with a bowl of mixed fruit topped with granola. YUM! The side of grits came with my choice of cheese and I added Swiss cheese. Our server was very prompt and friendly and we were amazed how fast the food came out. I loved the interior decor with lots of airbrushed artwork on the walls. Was it a super cheap breakfast, no but you get what you pay for and I think the price was WELL worth the quality and amount.

To call this French is an insult to France! I was born and…read moreraised in France, getting my bakery goods in the mornings from bakery down the street. The ambience was nice and so was service, but that's where the good things end. This was a disaster and shameful that it's called French. Serving croissants and eclairs and putting French names to menu items does not make something French. We ordered a turkey omelette with eggs on top, an eclair, a chocolate croissant, a croissant with ham and cheese and tomato and lettuce, and a cream filled beignet. Let's start with the bakery goods. All bakery goods should be made fresh that same morning. The croissants, and pastries all should be flaky and taste fresh. These were hard as if they were all yesterday's leftovers. The filling on the beignet was obviously a Jell-O pudding mix, and definitely not homemade. The eclair for some reason had some kind of supposed chantilly cream and raspberry instead of the traditional filling, and both of those fillings were also all store-bought. The eclair was also stale and tasted like it had been in the fridge since yesterday. The omelette was an absolute joke. If you look at the picture I posted, my index finger was actually taller than the entire omelette which is supposed to be filled with ham and cheese as you can see from the post photo. The ham and cheese were also packaged meat and cheese as you can tell since they all were sliced exactly in the same way and same size and tasted processed, and the cheese wasn't even melted completely. The omelette was just incredibly dry and bland. The croissant suffered from the same disease. It was hard, not flaky, and tasted stale as if it had been made yesterday, and all of the meat and cheese was obviously packaged meat and cheese which tasted processed. This tastes nothing like anything you would find at any French bakery in France. In France. Everything is made the same day, and the moment it starts going stale and stops being flaky, is thrown away. This is an absolute insult to French bakeries. Even if you compare it to other American bakeries and breakfast places, nothing tasted good and for that price, it should. Definitely avoid this place. I know I will.

We always come to Cafe de Paris on our annual beach drink to Indian Rocks Beach. Here is what we…read morelove about it. Atmosphere: The Cafe de Paris is located inside a small strip mall in Indian Rocks Beach. It's simply decorated on the inside. It has a large display case with a variety of fresh pastries, breads, and quiches to pick from. You can also watch the master chef/owner make crepes at his work station. They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. The seating is based off what's available when you walk in. You order at the pastry display case! Service: The service is fast. Everyone we encountered was very friendly! Food: We always love the food we get here. I like their croissant sandwiches. You can pick from a variety of options but I always get the bacon, egg, and cheese option and asked for it pressed. I love their Paris Special coffee drink. It is a long shot of espresso topped with whip cream and shaved chocolate. Yum! I've tried a variety of their pastries and they are always good. This is a great place to come for a yummy breakfast or lunch!

A new and improved East Bistro with a new, enthusiastic and friendly owner and an excellent engaging chef. He is respecting the successful original and also adding some improvements! @Peter selected this place and we enjoyed it! Abdul, the new owner, introduced himself, gifted us free black tea with mints leaves, and encouraged us to sample various items such as homemade falafel and homemade lentil soup. I ordered the sampler platter called Trifecta and got the feta cheese on the side since I am currently dairy free. The presentation was excellent and I enjoyed everything served. The hummus was very nice and included a sprinkling of sumac as a garnish. The kabobs and rice were flavorful as well! The excellent falafel, which I asked about, turned out to be Abdul's grandmother's recipe from Jordan! Delicious! We met Z, the chef and were able to examine the huge gas powered oven for flat bread and more. Z's food was very nice, both tasty and beautiful. I also got a spiced/herbal flatbread to go for my wonderful wife. We will heat it up and try it tonight! . Life is good with an excellent meal, great service and a spotless and welcoming restaurant.

I am completely heart broken, crying for days now…read more. I cannot believe what has happened here. What was my completely favorite place to grab Kabob lunch has now changed hands & the food is completely different, and not in a good way. The elderly gentleman from Lebanon that used to make my food was so kind & carried a gift for grilling kabobs. We talked about this all the time. I told him every time I visited, his kabobs were the best. He was so modest & would tell me, "everyone's the same" and I would laugh & say, "no they aren't, yours are the best I have ever had." He would always graciously thank me modestly. He knew I knew. He was so special. His food, his kindness, his smile, all so unforgettable. Last time I was there, they had reopened with all new people. I didn't recognize anyone. I asked, "where is the elderly man from Lebanon?" The new people told me, "he had to go back to Lebanon." They told me, "you will love OUR FOOD" so I ordered my usual chicken kabob platter & it came out totally different. I took a few bites of everything & was so upset I started texting my husband to tell him that the food was all different it wasn't the same, we were crushed. Heartbroken. Completely heartbroken. So, the new young man kept coming over asking me what I thought of "THEIR FOOD" & finally, after three times, I was fighting back tears & just decided to tell him the truth to his face. I looked him right in the eyes & said, "I'm sorry, I will be honest with you, I like salt. I like salt & seasonings on my food. This is not the same food I was getting before." He was trying to be nice & started telling me that they know the elderly gentleman from Lebanon, they are the same family and they can get his recipes from him bla bla bla they can change the recipes... At that point, I was so upset that the restaurant I walked into was completely wrecked & different, I just took the container of food to my husband to see what he says also. My husband came to the same conclusions: The chicken kabobs the elderly gentleman made were seasoned to perfection, cooked to perfection, every time. You can see from my videos & photos that the kabobs have tons of seasonings & grill marks from the grill. The new video has none of that AND, as my husband pointed out, the cut of the chicken is completely different. The elderly gentleman cut the chicken into small bite size pieces & put them on the sticks all in a row, long & small. Whoever is cutting the chicken pieces now, cut them too big, there isn't any seasonings & they don't grill them the same. The elderly gentleman from Lebanon had this super special way he fashioned the kabobs with a "special cut" into the styrofoam container on its sides that the sticks fit in it perfectly & wouldn't slide around. He had a special way of doing things, he was a master. I feel honored to have known him, to have had his food. I just cannot accept, I may never see him again! (Crying) His yellow rice was butter toasted rice. It wasn't mushy & over cooked. It was firm & flavorful. Their rice was not butter toasted & was so overcooked & mushy omg it was horrific. His garlic sauce was so thick & full of flavor. The sauce that the new people gave me was watered down yogurt sauce! A completely different sauce! It was so bad, and hubby LOVES yogurt sauce & it was so watered down & horrible he didn't even eat it, he threw it in the rubbish. The tabouli? OMG. The elderly man from Lebanon made the best tabouli we have ever had. He made it with a white vinegar or something, it had a very distinct sharp pungent flavor of fresh parsley & vinaigrette. It was legendary. He was legendary. The tabouli that they gave us was SWEET with raisins or some crap in it. It was HORRIFIC. I am so upset, still crying. I can't believe this has happened! To the new Owners: If y'all are the same family, you should put the elderly man's food back on the menu. What you are serving now is not acceptable. We will come back when the elderly man from Lebanon comes back. Let me know ASAP of any changes & I will be the happiest person alive to see the legendary man from Lebanon again, & update my review accordingly.
