This restaurant is tucked out of sight behind other stores in a small mall. The offerings are numerous and well-prepared. The unfortunate part is that this quasi-upscale restaurant serves food in cardboard boxes and coffee in paper cups, rather than china. The coffee is dispensed from thermal containers and is lukewarm and stale as the day wears on (10:30 am). For the money, they should offer china plates and cups. They are also on the hidden charge bandwagon, adding 3.5% to credit card charges, but failing to disclose this clearly upfront and expecting a tip for essentially no tippable services (like McDonalds). The acoustics aren't great with a high level of noise from a few patrons.

This place should feel ashamed of themselves. I ordered a sandwich that had pesto in it and immediately after eating it I felt tingling in my throat and my tounge hurt as well. It felt similar to an allergic reaction except we asked them if the pesto had any nuts in it and they said no. This means that something else was wrong with the pesto and something in it must have been expired because my stomach was hurting very badly as well. I wound up on the toilet later puking because of the sandwich. I can’t recommend anyone to eat at a place if they can’t even do the bare minimum: serve non-expired sanitary food.

Very cute French-style coffee and breakfast shop featuring homemade, creative offerings that are delicious, decadent and enormously fattening.

Can't rate the food or atmosphere because we never got to eat there. We walk in, stand at the counter waiting for the girl behind the counter to take our order but she doesn't. What happens is some lady walks up to the counter and starts ordering her food. She just walked right up, didn't see us standing right there, grabs a menu and starts ordering! Unbelievable. Unbelievable that the girl behind the counter didn't even she us standing right in front of her and asks that lady if she can take her order! Cannot recommend such a place with such terrible service!! Service doesn't even deserve 1 star!!

The pistachio croissant is A++. I’ve been searching for one locally ever since a trip to Italy and I finally found a place that lives up to my beloved Positano croissant. Can’t wait to keep coming back for more!The parmesan-leek and strawberry croissants were excellent, too.

Loved the outdoor seating and my food came out quick and was packed with protein. They didn’t skimp on the inside of the Parisian ham egg and cheese and the coffee was smooth and delicious!

The French Market in CN is wonderful! The atmosphere is very enjoyable and fun, and the food is always excellent - everything is made fresh and very well. You can tell all is made with love and care, especially when little flowers are presented as garnish and tucked in to your order for a delightful surprise!

Beautiful interior design & atmosphere. It feels very french cafe. I got the veggie burger. It was tastier than most veg burgers. It was HUGE. I also have to talk about how soft and fresh the bread/bun was ...that alone was worth the price which was what stole the 5th star: the price. So expensive. The community is rich so I understand but it's $$$.

Croque mansenuire was very disappointing. It was made with a cheap store white toast, was very dry and cold inside. Ingredients were below the quality. Its supposed to be a delicious soft sandwich with a nice touch of beshamel souce and melted cheese on top, instead it was the worse version of the grill cheese. We ordered to eat inside and were giving a to-go boxes that makes is challenging to eat.I am not sure how they call themselves a French gourmet place... They have nothing in common with a French cuisine.
