The place itself is nice and cappuccino they make is very good. But customer services is sucks, the reception is always empty and when you try to order something you need to scream over the counter to find some body, and then that lady just yells at me, what you want ? So I think customer service should better than product !

Finally chocolate, like you find in European cafes.Artistically designed truffles that are so pretty you'll pause to stare at their beauty, along with flavors that will blow you away.A charming location in Palmer RanchWith casual surrounds, ring bell for service.Best,V

I just happened across them today and decided to stop by. I tried their Chicken Salad Croissant and it had a funny taste. It took me a few moments to identify what I was tasting. It was chicken. The salad actually tastes like chicken! Not mayo, or onion, or ... unidentifiable - real chicken. And the tomato tasted of - yup, you guessed it - Tomato! The Signature Chocolate Cake is as good as it sounds, simply delicious. I have a few treats I haven't tried and am looking forward to them. The two workers I met were both happy and smiling. I'll go back now that I found this gem.

The chocolate was delicious but the portions was a bit on the smaller size for the price.Spent close to a hundred dollars for 34 pieces of chocolate for Valentine's day for my beautiful wife. She enjoyed them therefore I guess Banyan Tree was worthy of 4 stars.

Excellent lunch menu items, and the food is so fresh. And the chocolate truffles are truly European variety- reminded me of trips to Belgium and Austria! You will love it!

I picked out this cafe specifically so I would have an excuse to get chocolate after lunch. The menu has some fun options incorporating chocolate in, like chili with chocolate in it. 2 of the group agreed they could taste the chocolate in the chili, while the other 2 agreed they couldn’t tell at all. It still tasted good though. All the food was solidly tasty. I liked the hot chocolate and signature salad best, but the egg salad, curry chicken salad, quiche of the day, and chili all were happily polished off by the group. After lunch I got an assortment of chocolates to try later. All of the chocolates were absolutely beautiful to behold, and had interesting flavors, like a jasmine tea infused one with passion fruit and a spicy red one that was excellent. The chocolates were about $2 each, which is pricy if you are planning to gorge yourself on chocolate, but as fancy chocolates go, it isn’t that bad. They would make excellent gifts!

The latte I ordered was delicious! An added bonus was that it came in a completely compostable cup.

Best Hidden Little SecretThis place is a true gem. The customer service is great and so is the food. I haven't tried anything on the menu that I didn't like. The added bonus is their selection of desserts and treats. I would highly recommend giving this place a try, if you haven't already.
