We had a last minute meeting at the office nearby. Our director loves everything Tartine so the decision to have a small Tartine breakfast spread was a no brainer. I called and talked to Jony, the manager, about the size and scope of a potential order. Jony was professional, courteous, and had a full grasp of the scope of our order for about 10-12. Jony gave me his number and told me to feel free to reach him any time once I figured out the order. Later that day, I sent a message to Jony and worked with him on an order that satisfied our meeting. When I arrived at 8am, my order was nearly ready to go. I grabbed the freshly baked pastries and yogurt and chia pudding cups. By that time, my order was in bags and ready to go. Its safe to say this order was a complete success. Everyone raved about the delicious pastries, chia pudding, quiche, and toast and jam. The potatoes, eggs, and bacon was an extra detail we included that made everyone feel right at home. Jony went above and beyond to make this order happen. He really saved the day, thank you very much to Jony and the rest of the team at this location. I look forward to coming in for a morning bun soon!

I had an all-day breakfast, croissants and pain au chocolate with cappuccino. Pain au Chocolate’s chocolate wasn’t quality but the other dishes were perfect.

Nice place with a nice vibe. Leaving this review basically to remember to come more often. Thanks

Something has changed. Loud off-brand music on a Sunday morning. Staff seems angry and frustrated to be working. No smiles anywhere. Feels very off brand.

I was attending an event at SiriusXM and the staff recommended this place for lunch. So pretty much most of the attendees went to this place for lunch to mingle with each other. I was following along with the crowd.I was so busy talking that I didn't pay a lot of attention to read the menu while I was waiting in line. This is like a cafe kind of place. I glanced at the menu and realized nothing was cheap here. Since I had to spend a lot anyway, I decided to order something that I like. I got the smoked salmon tartine. It's like $17.95 on the menu which I think is quite a bit especially when I got the order and see that it literally is a piece of toast with smoked salmon on it. The portion is really not much. The smoked salmon tasted good though. I also got to try the salad that another attendee ordered. It was fresh as well. I would have to say the food itself is good but the price is high. But maybe that's the ongoing rate for this area.Afterwards, I looked at the recipe and I was charged like $20 something dollars. There is an employee benefits charge of $0.82 and then tax on top of that. So be careful if you are the kind that would like to save money. This is not your place. If you are the kind that enjoys good food and don't care how much you pay for it, this is your place.

The food was not good, my dish tasted like burnt oil, really disappointing, the breakfast sandwich was very greasy and saturated, the omelette had no flavor at all, we didn't like the drinks, the pumpkin latte is very sweet 3 drinks and it was enough , if you like very sweet things you might like it, the matcha is very bad, the only thing we liked which is why it has 2 stars was the bread, the croissant was very well made, with good technique and good flavor, the morning bun very sweet but not in a bad way, it was very delicious, we would return for the bread and nothing else.

Used to be better. The ingredients and taste have totally gone DOWNHILL. Things look great, though most pastries are too dark - the French would say burnt.The banana cream pie whipped cream tastes like grocery store. How easy is blending grocery store heavy cream + sugar + vanilla which makes a superb whipped cream!??I always got the quiche which was buttery and sublime. Today I got it and (see pic) it’s really a spinach pie not a quiche. Very little egg which used to be a highlight - it was sooo buttery and full fat cream-creamy At least the crust is still kinda special and super flaky. Menu says Gruyere cheese and my first bite I thought what is this? It tastes and has the mouth feel of cheap plastic American cheese!Whaa!?!On the way out I mentioned it to the manager who was totally cool..explained that they make in-house…which IS the problem. A baked goods restaurant is NEVER going to do good cheese let alone Gruyère, which is best aged.Sadly, the owner probably wants to make more. They’ve raised prices as everyone has but if it doesn’t taste worth it… The owner knows full well how to make sublime food because he did it for the first coupon years this place was open!?Shame. Won’t bother with this place anymore :(The setting is still wonderful and I love this little block it’s on. But the now 3-ish stars it has now on Google reviews is for good reason.Oh, and the waiter outside doesn’t carry a cleaning towel, instead I watched him use the partially used napkin from the dirty used dishes a customer had left behind to barely wipe the table lol?‍♀️

Salmon Tartine was very tasty and matcha was great as well. Vibe and atmosphere maybe 4 out of 5, but the food really made it to the 5 stars

What I ordered: Ordered the goddess salad with tuna and side of bread with butter.Food for thoughts:You would think I’m eating gold leafed lettuce with caviar croutons for the price. The food was tasty and a nice size, but can’t really justify spending $40.Overall thoughts:Pricey, at least a nice portion size. Bread was good quality. Not running back for that.

Only been here for breakfast, awesome coffee and breakfast. Great place to people watch or meet friends.

A cute location and an ok gluten free muffin but the PSL was awful (tasted like a normal weak latte) and the omelette was horrible - no flavor, cold, and took 30+ min to arrive. The side salad was just plain greens and a flavorless oil dressing.

Stopped here for a bite. Right off the bat the service was very poor. Zach who took my order just shouldn’t be in the service industry. Food was sub-par for the price as well.

Stopped by again for breakfast, besides the ham and cheese croissant, tried a morning bun. Both were delicious and above Average. Recommended. Raising rating from 3 to 4Stopped by for a breakfast snack.Doors opened late at 08:05, service at counter was below average, counter person only asked whether it’s for dine in or take out. Not asking or offering to heat up the ham and cheese croissant, not offering a beverage, no Nepkins offered. Makes you think about recruiting and training standards here..The croissant was a little greasy but delicious. Above average for sure.I’ll come back to explore more options soon.
