Limited menu but outstanding buttery French onion soup. Empanadas were tasty too. Very cozy place to eat. Very friendly attentive service. Cute place.

Such a cute gem. French onion soup was 10/10. The tamales and empanadas were great. The chicken in both the tamales and empanadas were very dry. Would recommend the ground beef empanadas and the pork tamales.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp entrance

Best food and service. Been there 2x and it was great both times. The pork soup was delicious. The crepes are big.

Quaint establishment with made to order crepe dishes, with lots of variety to choose from. The soups are absolutely lovely and delicious. The tamales are super filling and scrumptious. The empanadas are light and flaky with unique and tasty recipes. Expect to take the time to enjoy this dining experience, which will not disappoint.

This place is a hidden gem to out of towers like us. The lunch of crepes dishes with side salads was spot on. The mushroom crepe i had was perfect in flavor and portion. Tracy our server helped us select from the bistro style menu. The empanadas and the enchiladas will be had on a follow up visit! Reasonably priced and prepared to expectations. I recommend this for a date night or quiet friends gathering.

Such a cute little place. Very clean. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and specials offered. We shared a French onion soup, our entrees where the ratatouille, and stroganoff crepes, for dessert we shared the Suzette and the jambrod crepes. 10/10 Definitely looking forward to coming back.(Parking is on street, there is a free public lot about a block up from the restaurant. Worth the short walk)Parking: Parking is on street. Free public lot a block up

I came with my family and thankfully they had enough space to seat the 7 of us. The space is smaller, but they graciously combined tables together in the back room to accommodate our party. I ordered the La Paysanne crepe, which had eggs, Swiss cheese, turkey bacon, leeks, tomatoes, and cream. It was delicious! The crepe itself had a nice crispy exterior but was soft to the bite. The filling was very complementary, and I think all the ingredients went really well together. I was skeptical of the turkey bacon, but it was actually good. The size of the crepe was also very generous and I was very full afterwards. The dish came with a side salad which was a nice addition. Our service was very friendly, helpful, and accommodating, and the food came out in a fairly prompt fashion, given the size of our group. The space was small and quaint but clean. Overall, I enjoyed this place and would recommend trying their crepes. I can't speak for the tamales or empanadas, but the crepe I had was delicious!

If you’re expecting a nice French cafe with traditional French flavors, this isn’t it. The flavors are decent, I’m not sure what they were thinking with the buckwheat crepes, but it doesn’t blend together. I had the eggs Benedict crepe with salmon, for such an elegant dish the crepe completely ruined it. It was like eating a fishy sponge with eggs on it. I ordered the French onion soup which was their “specialty,” not sure why, because it wasn’t much better than what you get at Panera or another fast casual restaurant. It was like the forgot how to use seasoning in any of the food. Although the food was decent, my main problem with this place is the price. There is a crazy up charge for just being in this location. With the surrounding restaurants the up charge is there as well but, they make it worth it with amazing waitstaff and incredible food. My suggestion is just stop in if you want an overpriced cup of soup but go somewhere else if you’d like to have a nice meal and feel good about paying the up charge.

Went here on a whim for lunch. The food is outstanding. Some of the best French onion soup I've ever had. Their empanadas was tasty and flaky, just perfect. We will definitely return when in town again.

Interesting combination of French and Mexican dishes. Really good onion soup and tamales. The sauce brings most of the flavor to the tamales.

As someone who has lived in Bretagne, the crepe capital of the world, I can say this place is truly authentic and delicious. Atmosphere is lovely, service was wonderful, the crepes (galletes) and the French onion soup we’re sublime.

Everything here was 5 star. The ambience, jazz was playing when we arrived. We ordered vegetarian crepes (mushroom) and it was absolutely delicious! Haley was very attentive , kind, and gracious. The Americano coffees was good too! The crepes were just like they are in France!
