I decided on the French Carmella, which he said was his best seller and a slice of Citron cake, which he said was his favorite. They both were amazing... the Citron cake practically melts in your mouth while sending you to heaven. Packed with subtle lemon flavors bursting on your palette. It was amazing!! I will definitely be back to try more of these authentic French pastries.

Their sugar free keto chocolate chip cheesecake bar was absolutely amazing. They said that you could taste the difference between it and their regular cheesecake bars, but you could have fooled me!

The shop is cozy and the staff are incredibly nice as well. :)

Everything looked so beautiful and delicious, but the looks were deceiving. The banana cheesecake cupcake tasted like artificial banana extract was used. And the s'mores doughnut went right in the trash after one bite. It tasted like wet sand, dense and oddly dry at the same time. We had such high hopes for this cute shop but we will not be back .

I always say I wish they were closer, but I probably would be in weekly if they were. Nice spot in Plaza Midwood so I don't mind coming here. Great Italian bakery.

Good amount of seating inside (mostly 2-seaters; one larger table reserved for bigger groups). Helpful and friendly staff who were amazing with my little one. You have to try a slice of the basque cheesecake. The plain slice (with no whipped cream or fruit topping) is not overly sweet and the perfect amount of "burnt" & creamy. We also tried the madeleines, which - as the café's name suggests - were on point. And the garlic bagel is a garlic + cream cheese lover's dream. The iced dalgona latte was such a treat. Sweet with a creamy foam and topped with crunchy cookies - very well balanced and delightful to drink. The prices reflect the care and high quality of the products. Come support this amazing local spot and enjoy their unique, thoughtful offerings!

The café is decorated charmingly, with little Madeleine cookie designs stamped throughout the space. They have a small section with some gift items for sale. They also sell Madeleine cookies, of course, though we didn't get any. The service was given with genuine smiles. The prices were normal - not a deal but not over-the-top. We enjoyed our breakfast and will happily come back!
