I think this place is wildly overrated. The schnitzel was probably the only thing I would recommend getting, but even that is no better than lots of other places. The waffle was wildly overcooked, and basically hard as a rock, the croissant well had good flavors was pretty stale. I think the overall theme is that everything seems like it’s been made and left out for a while. Not worth the money.

I had a great experience at the destroyer. I had a good bottle of wine to pair with unique and delicious dishes. I also bought a unique honey that blew my mind.
This place should be in a different location so more people could have a high quality experience!

The perfect La experience. Each pastry was bursting with flavors and my senses were overwhelmed by all of the flavors inside my personal favorite was the Matcha croissant because the peppermint cream was to die for Yum Yum Yum Yum.😋🤤🍵🥐☕️
