They tasted stale, which was surprising for a French bakery. We also ordered the chicken sandwich, and it wasn't good either. It had only a very thin slice of chicken and lacked flavor, making it feel overpriced for what we received. The only positive was that the service was decent and the staff were polite. Unfortunately, the food didn't meet our expectations. This was my first visit, and sadly, it will also be my last.

Reaching out to Stephanie is super easy. You'll receive a Google form to fill out and you'll let her know what flavors you're interested in, designs you might want, and how many macarons. As her profile mentions, you want to order in advance of the date you need to pick up. Stephanie is located in Torrance (that's where I picked up) but she also has another location you can pick up at. Overall, I found the process super easy and Stephanie was always friendly and answered all my questions. When you confirm your order you'll pay 50% of the order total and pay the balance when you pick up, super easy and convenient. I ordered a dozen macarons for Mother's Day in a flower shape. I chose strawberry shortcake, blueberry cheesecake, and lemon meringue as my flavors. When I picked up my order Stephanie had boxed them up and added some decorations; totally unexpected and appreciated. I'm excited to order from her many times over!

It was a very good surprise when I found these little pieces of heaven at the Farmer's Market! Even better when I got home and took my time enjoying my macaroon.

Believe me when I say that you will start buying 2, but will end up going home every time with at least a box. Service is great, they always explain how long we can keep them in the fridge and are happy to answer any questions we have. We will definitely keep buying more!

I sat outdoors and listened to the sound of the water wall fountain installation. Large selection of varying French pastries and desserts that look absolutely scrumptious. This includes croissants, cookies, tarts, macaroons, cakes, pate, cheeses, quiches, brioches, etc. There was an open menu/book with pictures of the food on the counter. They offer many options. It was difficult to decide, but I finally decided and ordered an avocado toast and small latte. Because there was only one other person there, the lady behind the counter said she would find me, which she did. She delivered my drink first. Afterwards, she personally delivered my avocado toast with a side salad, served on a wooden chopping block. It all looked good. Well presented. From the first bite of my avocado toast, it was delicious because of the freshly baked bread. A nice, thick dark bread. It was piled on with freshly chopped avocados that kept falling off the bread, topped with pickled radish, tomatoes, and pine nuts. Parking: There's plenty of free, shared lot parking in the back.

We've come twice now, and our favorites are the Parisian (prosciutto, arugula, brie, and pesto mayo) and the Chipotle Turkey! Need to come back to try some of those pastries because everything looked so good. They also have some desserts and cakes that looked amazing! Can't wait to come back:)

They had a good array of both sweet and savory treats, and everything looked amazing. We went right when they opened, so the case was full and very stocked up.

It's a cute little location, and there's free parking in the lot right outside. It is a small lot though, but there's plenty of parking in the area if you can't snag a parking spot in the lot. I will definitely be back very soon, I can't stop thinking about it!!

They close at 8:30 and I came in 2 hours before. The pastries leftover were scooched over and the labels did not match entirely what they were. It was difficult to know what I was picking up onto the tray. There was also a small fruit fly or gnat flying around inside the bakery case as well. The icing of the orange donut thing also got stuck to the box and we had to scrape it off... Out of 4 pastries none of them were really that good, it really made me not want to come back. I also ordered a plain iced coffee and the coffee quality is not good at all. Tastes like it was made from a Mr coffee machine at home. Service was friendly. She explained each pastry when we asked what we picked up. Small location inside the market. Parking in the plaza. Restrooms are located within the building.

Friends ordered a few other things as well, and overall everything was super good. What stood out most was the texture. Everything tasted moist and well made without feeling like it was trying too hard to be "gluten-free." I'm not personally gluten sensitive, though a couple friends I was with are, and honestly I wouldn't have known it was gluten-free based on the quality and taste alone. The drinks were solid too and paired well with everything we ordered. The whole place has a calm neighborhood bakery feel to it, and you can tell it's a spot locals come back to often.

My niece wanted mochi for their graduation treat. I tried to…read moresee what was available in SD. I did read about this little spot. It is located inside Mitsuwa Marketplace. They have a lot of very nice pricey packaged goodies(special Japanese chocolate and peach jellies and fancy mochis) in the front area. I ended up near the window displays towards the back. I was eyeing up the cream buns. (red bean, custard, matcha, chocolate) I have never seen these before, but I decided to not get these since they do not contain mochi. Right beside them are the Mochi creams. They had many different flavors, it definitely took me some time to decide. (some are: red bean, mango, green tea, peach yoghurt, apple pie, blueberry yoghurt, strawberry shortcake, choco Banana, white chocolate, chocolate, Black sesame, raspberry) These have the wonderful mochi on the outside with the flavored filling inside with soft sweet white cream in the middle). I will say the mochi on the outside is super delicious, it was chewy and incredibly soft. I have had my fair share of mochi and it's very good here. There were the flavors we got: 1. Black Sesame: 3/5 2. Strawberry Shortcake 4/5 3. Green tea 4/5 4. Red bean 4/5 5. Mango- 5/5 Each piece is not cheap, but I think they are pretty good. They come frozen and you place them in your fridge to thaw. I do think they recommend you eat them within 24 hours. They also do carry mochi ice cream too, but I could not these since they would have melted. I have had mochi ice cream before but not from here, I'll be coming back to try at some point in time. We did try special peach jelly mochies (packaged), they were indeed good but for the price of them, I do not think I'd get them again. (mochi on the outside was incredibly soft especially for it being packaged) Service: 5/5 Ambiance 4/5 Food: 4/5
