    Raspberry tart for 8people ($40)
    Claryssr B.

    Quick recap: - Food: Tasty - Portion size: Average - Service: Nice - Environment: Bakery with tables inside and outside - $: Average - Perks: N/A Overall? Excellent French bakery, from a French patissier! More details: Morning of, I thought no French bakery would be able to make a cake for later in the afternoon, when we were celebrating a birthday. After a quick call, the French owner advised me on which fruits were in season and would taste better, and we settled on a raspberry tart (a French classic). He baked it that afternoon and called me when it was ready, around 4pm. I am French and can attest the quality of the food and the work. Will come back soon!

    This place is high on my list of the Best Mom n Pop Places in L.A. for Flavor and Value! Keep supporting these special spots of joy in our communities!!! Love love this place for their croissants - Chocolate almond today - one of my favorites croissant places in all of LA. They will gladly warm it up for you so tell them nice and warm all the way thru! Good espresso, latte was a bit weak for me BUT that's prob bcs of all the espresso I normally drink. I am a quarter French and that part of me is making this my go-to spot.

    Croquembouche

    My mom is still raving about her 80th birthday "cake", days after the event. This beautifully crafted Croquembouche was so unique and every bite was delicious. The hand made marzipan flowers and spun sugar swirls were just gorgeous and the overall presentation was amazing. It was truly a work for art. Well worth the price for something so unique to celebrate a milestone birthday!

    The location and patio

    Omg this place is a little hidden gem. Custom cakes and sandwiches. I had no idea and I live down the block. Woohoo. Super excited.

    Good display of pastries and menu

    The Adore cafe is well located with ample parking and plenty of seating space both inside and out. I found the restaurant to be very clean and pleasant on the eye. This was my first time at this business so I didn't have time to make an overall impression of their baking products. However, I wasn't really happy about their cappuccino-- it tasted very much like it wasn't made with whole milk, so that was disappointing, plus it was way too hot. I also purchased the almond croissant which for me wasn't that good either. The owner was very talkative and gave us an insight to the business and also the process of making their products which was really interesting. I think they could definitely improve things here by taking away the dirty dishes drop point which is at the door. I just get a bad vibe when you walk into a restaurant and immediately see the dirty dishes. Coffee wise -- maybe I caught them on a bad day but it wasn't really something I'll want to repeat. The other problem with Adore is that they have competition from a few other French-styled bakeries which offer more authentic dishes-- just my opinion. But overall the plusses perhaps outweigh the negatives.

    Authentic French patisserie with yummy sweet and savory options. If you're looking for authentic French items and flavors come to Adore. The flavors are definitely truer to what they're supposed to be vs. what you taste (and may like) at a more mainstream bakery, so it's helpful to know which your palate prefers. Or you can come to Adore and find out! There is an afternoon tea set for $35 that comes with 6 sweet and savory items (chef's choice) and a drink. The staff are wonderful and accommodating and the cafe is adorable. Love both the indoor and outdoor seating. Perfect for a coffee and small bite or lunch meet up with friends.

    Pain au chocolat
    Elaine T.

    So nice to have an expanded menu at my favorite French pâtisserie! Stopped by for lunch of soup (today's choices were curry carrot and mushroom), salad and quiche. Everything was delicious as always, (with the quiche heated top your preferred temperature of piping hot or warm). I took home some chocolate macarons, a baguette, mushroom pâté, black forest ham, ham and cheese croissant, and my favorite chocolate dipped sablé cookie. You really can't go wrong with anything here, just take something to go if you can decide what to eat!

    3rd time trying their pastries
    Julia H.

    Was looking for any new dessert places in the area. Came early in the morning and later on at lunch hour. There were a few more pastries were ready at lunch time. Sweets: 1. Redwood: Chocolate mousse cake with raspberry filling. Chocolate is more overpowering. Can't really taste the tangy sweetness of the raspberry. 2. Emerald: Pistachio sponge cake with cream and raspberry coulis. I liked this one better because you can taste the raspberry. Can't taste the pistachio though. Got this as a a whole cake. The writing on the cake wasn't a bit inconsistent/thin. 3. Cream puff: very good and full of cream. Tried the vanilla, black sesame and pistachio another day but for some reason the custard/cream wasn't as good. 4. Chocolate eclair: there was a good amount of filling. pretty good 5. Tiramisu cups: Overall well balanced for the coffee flavor. 6. Panna cotta cups: The raspberry was dominant in the panna cotta and the panna cotta might be a bit thin. Still good. 7. Creme brulee: the toast it on site when you order. not too sweet and was creaminess was just right 8. Pear tarte: I think other people might like this. has a slight almong/marzipan flavor that I personally don't like much. 9. Napoleon: flaky crust. Custard was good. Savory: 1. Onion mushroom quiche/Veggie quiche: a little bland 2. Spinach quiche: not bad but the cheese here is a bit too strong. 3. Pork shallot puff: The filling/flavor wasn't to my taste. 4. Cream of mushroom soup: Thin and not thick creamy. Still has a lot of mushroom flavor. Would recommend adding a bit of salt. 5. Green pea soup: Similar consistency to the mushroom soup. Not bad, but I think the mushroom is better. 6. Potato au gratin: didn't really like this. A bit expensive too. Service was good every time I've gone. The lady at the cashier is always nice and explains how to reheat the items. They seem to source their ingredients from Italy and other countries for better quality. The only negative is with the boxing. At some pastry shops, if the cakes don't fill the box, the empty space would be filled with a circular cardboard filler or the cakes will be taped down to prevent them from moving around. I mention this because one time the cakes didn't quite fit the box and the tiramisu cup tipped over and got all over some of the other pastries. There are still quite a few items to try especially the dine in foods. The sweets are better than their savory. Overall, 3.75.

    So very glad to have found this gem of a place, I just do not understand how I missed it before. Finally! a real patisserie, fine pastries and tastefully made baked goods without the overdone, bigger is better madness. I was having a rotten day, pulled up to their parking lot to gather my thoughts, then I saw this place and was immediately intrigued. I had an Americano, their rum dessert and the sand cookie. The coffee was made to perfection, perfect ratio of espresso and water. The dessert was to die for, so moist and every bite I took and sip of coffee healed my heart. Service: Engaging, friendly, treated me like a person, not the dismissive standoffish places across the South Bay. She was super nice, I believe she and her husband are the owners. Everyone was pleasant and the ambiance has great Feng Shui, good vibes and tastefully set up. I'm looking forward to returning.

    Ordered chai tea latte with a few small desserts while waiting for lunch.
    Local L.

    My friend and I went to this cozy adorable dessert shop on Friday afternoon. We each had a soup- and split a sandwich. My french onion soup was amazing- by far the best I have had. We ordered chai lattes, the offer variety of drink/ coffee options. The desserts- The display case is first thing you see when you walk in! Everything looked so good. Homemade- delicate- pastries, ganache, cannoli and so many more. After eating we had to take dessert to go- but we had tried a couple small items with our tea. Nothing was not amazing. I can not wait to take more friends! Its a perfect place for a girls day, lunch date, afternoon meeting, or a solo break! Just go try it- it wont dissapoint!! Oh- how did I forget- the staff, all were kind, knowledgeable, helpful, friendly and love their job-

    Mix Berry Tart
    Michael T.

    This is a bakery/café in a strip mall. The premises are of moderate size with plenty of seating, including outdoor seating. The have a cashier stand with bakery shelves to both sides and books detailing their (non baked) food items. The service was really friendly with whom I presume is the owner talking lively about their baker, a 3rd generation patissier from France and the authenticity of their baked goods. She described the importance of technique and value and origins of quality ingredients. The food was fantastic. I had a creme brulee cake that had a light sweetness (along the rest of their baked goods) and could taste the hints of cocoa and cream used in the layers between the pastry. The croissants were deliciously crispy and sufficiently airy while providing a rich buttery taste. All in all, something worth checking out in the area. As an additional note, they offer a tea/coffee time, including a mix of pastries (min 6) and coffee/tea 2pm to 5pm everyday they are open for $33 at time of writing. I hope I get to check it out sometime.

    Food, coffee, outdoor space and service is great every time. I come here in passing or when I bring my car for a car wash.

The staff were still very pleasant and patient with us even though were came around closing time. We purchased the items that were on the tray. The matcha and chocolate mochi donut was one of my faves. Delicious, chewy and packed with chocolate flavor. Had a thick slightly crunchy coating of Chocolate on the mochi donut and a powdering of matcha on top. Bomb! The blueberry donut filled with lemon curd was absolutely divine. So good and the filling was way better than I anticipated. The chocolate croissant was filled with a chocolate creme, loved it so much!. The red bean past donut was not a fave of mine but I also don't enough red bean paste very much to begin with. The other two I didn't get a chance to try but I'm sure they were great as well.

They close at 8:30 and I came in 2 hours before. The pastries leftover were scooched over and the labels did not match entirely what they were. It was difficult to know what I was picking up onto the tray. There was also a small fruit fly or gnat flying around inside the bakery case as well. The icing of the orange donut thing also got stuck to the box and we had to scrape it off... Out of 4 pastries none of them were really that good, it really made me not want to come back. I also ordered a plain iced coffee and the coffee quality is not good at all. Tastes like it was made from a Mr coffee machine at home. Service was friendly. She explained each pastry when we asked what we picked up. Small location inside the market. Parking in the plaza. Restrooms are located within the building.
