“First visit to Wormwood and it was an excellent culinary experience. It was a bit loud in the dining room and it is not a cheap dinner date but the service was phenomenal and the food and drinks were, for the most part, delectable. Tonight we ordered a farmers loaf of bread to share which came out steaming hot and accompanied by a delicious butter. We also ordered the French Onion dish that made my eyes roll to the back of my head. Let’s suffice to say I could have just ordered a couple of those French Onion apps and been perfectly content without needing a main dish. Nonetheless, our party ordered the Sea Bass, Chicken and the mushroom pasta dishes as mains. Everyone was happy with their meal and the plating was beautiful as you can see in the pictures. Overall it was a great meal - maybe not a regular date night sort of place but worth it for an occasional splurge.“

“Amazing little restaurant tucked away in the Horton Plaza. There isn’t anything negative to say! Everything from the atmosphere, food menu and most importantly, the service was amazing!! Highly recommended as a must visit if you are vacationing or simply passing through the area to a must if you live or frequent the area. Menu had simple selections and everything from the appetizers to entrees were perfectly timed. My only wish is to be able to bring it to the East coast! We will be back ❤️.“

“Best whiskey sour I have ever had, hands down, even better than these specialty cocktail bars. And I didnt even get to the food yet. The crispy duck thighs were out of this world with a delicious, but not overpowering, mustard sauce. And the chocolate cake?! Omg....still thinking about that. Service was excellent, and the interior is just delightful. It is almost like you are in France in someone's home. Fantastic restaurant.“

“I had a croissant, some French Toast, and a latte here. I really liked the French Toast! It was covered with pine nuts, and was drenched in syrup (which I was kinda surprised by, since I thought the pine not coating was going to prevent the today from soaking up the syrup). The nuts added some nice texture, and the syrup was a good amount of sweet. It was kinda hard to cut into, so I just kind of had to bite into the toast slices (maybe that's intended, though). The croissant and the latte were decent; nothing too eye opening for them but they I liked them a decent amount (I think the croissant is maybe good, with something else that is more savory than what I got). Overall, I liked what I got, and am happy to go again!“

“The service was kind and thoughtful. The cafe was an absolute delight. It made me feel like I was back at a local cafe in Europe. Lattes were delicious. My husbands chocolate croissant looked amazing but it was unfortunately hard as a rock. ? one woman was making all lattes and orders so it took some time to receive the craft items. Worth the wait on the beverages!Would go again but maybe skip the croissant ??“

“I would have given five stars across-the-board if not for one issue. They are understaffed. The waiter was much too busy for the number of tables he had, and while we definitely don't mind waiting, my mother started having a bad coughing attack, and he still hadn't brought any water to the table after 20 minutes. I went to the bar to ask for water because she was having a hard time, and he didn't listen to me, he just kept saying “in a minute, in a minute” when I insisted I just needed a water quickly for her. I had to rush across the street to get some water for her. Eventually he brought over our beverages, but not a water for her.  That being said, the food was delicious, and definitely worth the value . They just need some help.“

Everything was soooo yummy, I'm still thinking about the prosciutto panini to this day The London fog was delicious, but the pistachio matcha latte was lacking the pistachio The crepe made me crave some more crepes. It took a while for our crepe to arrive though cause they took back the number stand thing and didn't know which table the crepe goes to.. BUT!! Would definitely come again to try their other savory breakfast items“

“It is the first vendor you see when you go up the escalator/stairs to go into SkyDeck. The display is gorgeous: colorful macaronis, beautiful cake tarts, delicious pastries and puffy croissants. There is a big menu sign that shows coffee options, crepe, and sandwiches.I think they have the best croissants in San Diego. Their butter croissant is flaky outside and soft inside. Their chocolate and almond croissants are magnificent when warmed up. I also tried some of their fruit tarts before. They are beautifully baked and yummy. I like to gift these for last minute birthdays. You can definitely order their cake ahead of time as well. Their coffee is mediocre unfortunately. It tasted like syrup and bitter espresso. Service is fast and friendly. I have no complaint :)“

He was attentive, friendly, and truly went above and beyond to ensure our breakfast experience was nothing short of amazing. The highlight of our meal was the French onion soup, a surprising but welcome start to the day. It was rich, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The omelets were fluffy and packed with fresh ingredients, while the potatoes were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, just the way I like them. It's rare to find such a combination of great food and service, but Rosalio and Mimis Cafe managed to deliver. Highly recommended!“
