Another wonderful brunch at Claudine's. This most recent visit, there were a few hiccups with our…read moreorder, but the service was outstanding! I love their drip coffee and that there are free refills. Yay! They have some outlets available if you bring your laptop. I usually come on weekdays because the weekends get super busy! They have indoor and outdoor seating, but I like to be inside and watch the folks in the kitchen do their thing. We started with a blueberry scone and it had great flavor. It did taste a little on the dry side, so depending on how you like your scones can be a good or bad thing. Goes perfectly with the coffee! For my main I got the avocado chicken BLT wrap and it was delicious! I chose to get hash browns on the side, which were tasty but I wish they had a little more crisp on them. My mom ordered a scramble and what came out was an omelette that has been cut up into pieces. My mom brought it to an employee's attention and she offered to have them remake it, which was appreciated! Love that they validate parking if you park in the underground lot. Overall, my experience here is consistently good. Love their food and the casual vibe!

Misleading Signs, Poor Management, and Unhelpful Service I…read morehave visited Claudine's in Encino on Ventura Boulevard many times. However, my girlfriend and I were very disappointed during our most recent visit. The tables have clear signs that read: "ORDER FROM YOUR TABLE!" with a QR code encouraging customers to "SCAN HERE TO START AN ORDER." We followed the instructions exactly. After a table became available, we sat down and tried to order from our seats using the QR code. A manager immediately came over and confrontationally told me I was not allowed to do that. When I pointed out the sign on the table, he became combative and unfriendly, insisting that we had to stand in the long line like everyone else. He came across as being on a power trip. This makes no sense. Allowing customers to order from their tables (as the signs clearly promote) would help relieve the long lines at the cash register and actually benefit the business by improving flow and customer experience. Instead, the policy creates unnecessary frustration and confusion. Even worse, the interaction felt somewhat discriminatory. This kind of treatment is unacceptable and left us feeling unwelcome in what should be a pastry and coffee shop experience. Owners and management: Please either remove the misleading table signs or honor what they say. Train your staff -- especially managers -- on basic politeness and consistency, and ensure all customers are treated fairly. The servers who bring the food are very polite and courteous, the manager not so much. Great food will keep you in business only for so long, however if the management is so hostile and dominant, people will eventually go elsewhere. This experience will keep us from returning.

Every time I've stopped by the staff have been very friendly and helpful. Their lattes are good and they have a delightful assortment of pastries. I've tried their avacado toast however and I don't think it's quite worth the price and some of their items do seem to cost more than they are worth. Their drinks however are always delightful. While the price might not make this a regular place I visit I know if I'm in the mood for a quaint place to relax Coral Tree is definitely on my list of places to stop by.

That said, the Madagascar vanilla latte was really good - smooth, slightly sweet, and definitely something I'd order again. The burritos were a highlight!! super big portions and satisfying.

I'd come back, especially for the burritos and that vanilla latte!

I had to kill some time and wasn't very hungry, but couldn't resist their French cream donut--a heavenly confection with cloud-like cream filling. Accompanied with a rich Americano with cream, it was perfection. I pleasantly whiled away a perfect late morning hour here and would do it again in a heartbeat!

There was a redemption with their food which was surprisingly very yummy. They also offer some bread which I thought was a nice touch.

This is my second time visiting Paris Baguette, and was warmly welcomed by Ms. Grissel…read more It's always reassuring to walk into such a friendly and upbeat atmosphere, where you're greeted with a genuine smile. Ms. Grissel recommended that I try the Raspberry Almond Croissant, and I was pleasantly surprised by her suggestion. It was freshly taken out, took her suggestion. From the very first bite, I could taste the soft, flaky layers, raspberry filling was sweet and flavorful, perfectly complemented by the toasted almonds and dusted off with powdered sugar-absolutely delicious. My second pastry was a spiral-shaped croissant with chocolate bits baked into the layers, filled with custard cream and topped with fresh strawberry pieces. I'll definitely be coming back for more!

Today, my order from Paris Baguette the Encino location I…read morehad some new items I had never had before: The Korean Bbq pizzetta: it was a flaky pizzetta pastry topped with Korean BBQ shredded beef, red onion, melted cheese, and a Korean BBQ mayo. Then I got the 4 cheese quiches- a super Rich, Flaky Pastry filled with Egg and a blend of four cheeses (Swiss, Cheddar, Parmesan, Mozzarella) with rosemary. Loved both of these new items very much And of course, as usual, I had my ham and cheese baguette, which is out of this world Well, if you haven't tried yet Paris baguette, they have many locations in a highly recommended that place‼

No, I am NOT pregnant. :-) just cravings like most people have. Walked in this morning around 10am & was greeted by couple of employees. Both very nice, sweet, helpful and kind. They have so many different donuts, croissants, sandwiches, hot and cold coffee, espresso, latte, bottled drinks and more.. They have an indoor and outdoor seating and the place is super cute and very clean, chill and you get what you pay for. I got a dozen donuts from them and tried one on my way home and it was just decadent, fresh, fluffy and the frosting isn't overly sweet. Has parking and a restroom for their customers! Will definitely return next time I am in the Encino area. Established back in 1960 & Winnie/the owner of the place took over ownership in February of 2023. Give this donut shop a try and you will be very satisfied!!:-))

While the presentation was lovely,…read morethe flavors felt a bit simple for our personal taste and didn't seem quite as fresh as we were hoping. The coffee also wasn't our favorite on this visit, so overall the food and drinks didn't fully stand out to us this time. That said, the space is truly beautiful and creates such a calm, inviting atmosphere to sit and relax. The service was especially warm, kind, and attentive, which we genuinely appreciated and made the experience feel welcoming. With so many glowing reviews, we'd absolutely be happy to come back to try the donuts and see what everyone is raving about. Hoping to have an even better experience next time
