The shop is small and there was a line but it went by fast and the person at the register was super friendly. They have a couple of tables dedicated to Maca guests right outside. My favorite was the lemon and the funfetti was pretty good too. They are refrigerated so it makes sense to let them drop to room temperature before eating them. Either way they taste good! Definitely recommend you check this place out! You won't be disappointed!

We went with pretty much only classics, but nine of them missed.

I don't find it pretentious; rather, I find it humble and unique in the way it serves up phenomenal pastries that tickle every single corner of your palate. From the croissants, the turnovers, to the delectable desserts or macarons, not one detail is spared in the intricate process of making each item stand out. They sure make the French proud (as some of the patrons openly brag about this being closest to "home"). The friendliness that they greet you as you enter to the simple smiles and gestures accommodating any and every possible question you may have is truly what seals the deal for this spot. As I sit and slowly put away whatever pastry I decided to indulge in the moment, sipping on my cafe au lait, I get to watch as different locals enter and go, chatting up a storm with each other like long lost loves, before disappearing in delight with full bags in hand. Can't wait to be back. Definitely now a weekend staple.

That said, the worker was super nice, and the drink was good. I got a strawberry milk tea and it tasted very fresh!

Went here and the only thing that kinda bummed me out was the service. The employee was either having a bad day or just wasn't feeling it at all. Idk.

Overall, it's too expensive for the poor quality and I didn't even finish the ones I bought

We stopped by and were greeted by a nice generous line down the block, despite the line being super long it moved along fairly quickly. Once we were able to make it inside we were shocked by how many pastries there were to select from, but we wanted to stay on task with the main thing we came for.. The Cannolis. We ended up building our own 3 Cannolis, we went with one the traditional way, topped with some chocolate chips at the end, the 2nd one we did a chocolate dipped shell with a vanilla custard filling, and for the 3rd one we did a chocolate dipped shell with vanilla custard and topped with pistachio. The cannolis were so delicious and amazing and very much worth the wait. I also decided to get myself a triple chocolate cake to try and it was so rich and creamy and everything I'd ever want in an ideal chocolate cake! 10/10 I loved it!
