Amazing service, surprisingly great crepes. The young cashier always had a smile, and the older lady knew exactly what I needed ?

Do not pass up a visit to this place!! We had the most delicious crepes brunch here. My (gluten free) boyfriend had the gf turkey pesto savory crepe, and I the croque madame crepe and they were both perfection!! Tons of flavor and high quality, fresh ingredients. I also had their delicious peach tea and my boyfriend enjoyed his americano. This is definitely a gem of Austin (the kind chef, original art deco lobby, outdoor seating availability and the fact they also serve cocktails was a bonus!).Dietary restrictions: Gluten free crepe option was five star!!

Everything we ordered was perfectly executed. The shakshuka was deeply flavorful and light, the lone star benedict was amazing. The hollandaise sauce tasted like cheese fondue and the pepper added brightness. The creme brulee croissant was decadent and the crepe was delightful. We could taste the chef's love of food in every bite!

Great casual spot for a couple of people to get breakfast/brunch. I went with a friend after church on a Sunday and it wasn't too crowded. It is small, and in the entrance area of an office building. But the space looks cool and is nice for a short meal with a friend. The food was delicious, as well! We got a savory crepe (Huevos Días) and a sweet crepe (Crepe Tatin), and they were both really tasty. The employees are friendly; service is not really a thing, as you either order the food up at the counter, or via your phone by scanning the QR code on your table. Also, water is self-serve. Nothing bad, just don't expect table service like in a normal restaurant; this place is more in-between normal restaurant and fast food environment.Parking: You have to find street parking, which is free on Sundays and also quite easy during the morning/afternoon time-frame.

Perfect for brunch! The truth is that we really liked the croissant, salted caramel latte and shakshuka.
