All around, I could not have asked for a better experience! I had the Lion's Mane Quiche and French Onion soup. My wife had the Gnocchetti and Frites. I am a sucker for French Onion soup and it did not disappoint! Everything was delicious! The total bill included alcohol.

I had been eyeing this place for a while craving French food, and I’m so glad I came. This simple, cozy yet elegant restaurant combines a coffee shop vibe with breathtaking food presentation.
The tartare was a great starter. There was a subtle sourness from pickled elements and a saltiness that wasn’t overpowering. Often tartare is served with bread that I find too buttery, so the use of crackers was a plus for me. The nuttiness of the seeded crackers paired perfectly with the raw meat.
The Sweet Corn Gnoccetti perfectly blended the natural sweetness of corn, the creamy sauce, a tangy pickled note, and refreshing mint that brought it all together. The pasta itself was cooked to a wonderfully chewy perfection.
The almond croissant was the only slight disappointment for me. Though the buttery and flaky crust was excellent the filling leaned more salty than sweet, which isn’t my preference.
Overall, the meal was a feast for both the eyes and the palate, with dishes that showcased an impressive attention to detail and flavor. Despite the high price, I’d highly recommend this spot.

Consistently a total banger. The pastries are the stuff of drama, and the seasonal menu always delights me with new surprises celebrating local ingredients. Plus, one of the very best burgers in Austin. I've enjoyed raucus family dinners, intimate date nights and nourishing ladies lunches here. It's my staple go-to for visiting friends and the perfect spot for any occasion. Simply put, I love it.

Firstly, thanks so much to Rachel for amazing service and the entire staff for their positive energy and kindness! Beautiful space. We loved sitting on the patio and sharing dishes and pastries. We so look forward to coming back! Loved the atmosphere, love the concept as well. I am a biscuit snob and these were the best I’ve had in Austin. Thanks épicerie team for fantastic hospitality and stellar food! ❤️

Meal type: Afternoon coffee & sweetness.
Ordered: - Cappuccinos - Espressos - Beignets - Choco chip cookie - Cinnamon Short bread - Frozen Pim’s cup
The coffee served here is by a local roaster named “Sightseer”. Highly recommend these beans for a coffee connoisseur’s palate. See separate google review for “Sightseer”
Lets get to the desserts….
- Beignets: hands down brag worthy! A must try. The inner dough is light with a 2-3 second recoil, not greasy, and provides more of a Japanese milk bread texture. This contrasts nicely with the outer fried dough topped with just the right amount of sweetness level by the powdered sugar. These beignets are solid enough for dipping and/or a cozy accompaniment to a warm drink. The mood: perfect after a day on the slopes next to a fireplace.
- Chocolate chip cookie: A chocolate milk lover’s fantasy. These cookies are packed with chocolate and still perfectly baked. Im more of a dark chocolate person, so felt these were a tad bit too sweet. I suggest balancing it out with a dark roast or bitters.
- Cinnamon shortbread: A Buttery dense not-too-sweet treat that melts in your mouth. A citrus or herb icing, or preserve will complement nicely.
- Frozen Pim’s Cup: An extremely refreshing cocktail for gin and ginger fans, otherwise requires an acquired taste.
Additionally: Bar service was helpful and pleasant. Restrooms clean and thoughtful. Worth a revisit!
This was my post church dining selection last Sunday. It’s a cute spot with a surprisingly good amount of parking options (off-street and street). I had the beignets and the lion’s mane mushroom and Gouda quiche. The quiche was so cream, flavorful and the serving portion was adequate, I actually had a bit left over. The oldie but goodies playlist kept the vibe upbeat and I was feeling fancy with my table by large picture windows and the entire patisserie feel.
As someone with Louisiana blood in her veins, I have to disclose that the beignets fell short of my palate’s expectations, they were warm and perfectly formed but it tasted like a Costco croissant with powdered sugar on top.

We indulged in the pork rillette, gnocchetti, and the beignets, expecting a culinary adventure. The rillette had its moments, but alas, it didn’t quite inspire a return visit. Now, the gnocchetti—oh, it had such potential but a surprising sweetness overshadowed the dish, leaving me craving more balance. In fact, both of our main courses leaned far too sweet for my palate. But redemption arrived with the beignets, delight and crisp, and the iced black tea—a refreshing companion to the meal.
The atmosphere was wonderful, and while the food was a bit of a mixed experience, I would still go again.

TAKE YOUR GIRLFRIEND HERE!
Absolutely incredible food, oh my lord. Beautiful, fun atmosphere, decent prices, and the best pastry in town (coming from a bakery employee elsewhere!) Xavier was a delight, and he had a good time because we were having a good time.
10/10 across the board, magical experience.
Vegetarian options: A vegetarian could eat here very comfortably, and I'm certain vegan accommodations are also possible
Parking: Smallish but we found parking easily
Kid-friendliness: Lots of kids were here having a great time!
Wheelchair accessibility: Close tables, but a ramp out front

literally the best beinget I’ve ever had. relegious experience. Our server Xavier was so happy that we were happy, very friendly, and fun! quick service, awesome atmosphere, and fresh flowers on every table. Will ABSOLUTELY be back.
Parking: plenty of spots in tiny parking lot, maybe 20 or 25 spaces
Wheelchair accessibility: has a ramp, parking lot is flat. Im not a wheelchair user, but i think it might be a bit tight around Some of the tables, but everything moves and the staff were super accomodating about everything else, so i think it would be pretty accomodating!
