    Tuna Melt Sandwich
    Marvin S.

    We decided to stop here for lunch. The restaurant was spacious inside and nice. Definitely a mom and pop own restaurant and the environment was nice. We got the mocha coco ice coffee was good if you like that stronger taste of mocha. The tuna melt was delicious with Tapatio. The pesto chicken panini was nicely toasted and was very savory. I decided to get the chicken buffalo fries with the ranch and buffalo sauce on the side. The chicken was nicely cooked and was soft. The ranch and buffalo sauce mixed really well with the fries and chicken. Only reason why I didn't give the 5 stars was because they forgot my order and I had to wait 30 mins extra to finally get my food.

    Great service and the wraps are fresh and delicious, however I was a bit disappointed that DECAF coffee cost an additional 50 cents. I have never seen that kind of surcharge before! Also the menu is now abbreviated and not as extensive as the older posts show.

    Latte on the local train

    Quickly they do serve hot and cold meals. Offe several milk alternatives Been there a couple times and everything I've gotten is quite nice. Just today while waiting for the train I got their normal latte without any syrup and oatmilk and it tastes quite nice! It seems like actual espresso shot that goes in there is pretty good. It also came with nice latte art heart I wish I snapped a pic of. I only wish they opened a little earlier so I could have eaten breakfast before the train.

    the police officer approaching the elderly, w the owner in the back with a'La Gare Café' t-shirt

    I had a really upsetting experience here and feel the need to share it. While I was at the cafe, the owner went outside and called the police on an elderly man who wasn't even in front of the cafe. The man was in a wheelchair, appeared to be homeless, and was doing absolutely nothing harmful, he wasn't asking for money or bothering anyone. When the police arrived, the officer spoke with the owner (who was wearing a brown shirt, as shown in the picture), and then pulled out what looked like a taser. The elderly man even tried to speak, and the officer pointed the taser at him and proceeded to search him, while the owner stayed outside watching and waiting. I found this extremely unprofessional and honestly disturbing. It made me feel very uncomfortable witnessing how someone so vulnerable was treated despite not causing any issue. Especially considering this cafe is near an elderly home, the lack of empathy is shocking. This was a place I would have recommended to others, but after this experience, they've completely lost me as a customer. We're all human and deserve basic decency. I will not be coming back. Boycott this place.

    So first time here and I ordered two drinks. This place is super clean. I will be coming back to work from here during the week. I have high hopes for this spot. The food selection looks good and I'll try that next time. Here is what I ordered Affogato- $4.00 very good. I'm not sure where the ice cream comes from but they only have vanilla. 3.5/5 stars Iced Sunrise with tea and orange juice. The tea is red and I'm assuming it's raspberry. It's delicious and looks really cool since the tea floats in top of the orange juice - $16oz 4.75 and 24oz is $5.75- 4/5 stars I will be back soon

    Buffalo Chicken Wrap
    Jose M.

    Buffalo Chicken Wrap is my favorite item here! I love this wrap!!! This is a great place to chill and sip on some coffee while enjoying tasty food. Service was a little slow today, but the workers here were friendly and were working hard to push plates out. I'll definitely come back, but at a different time when it's not too busy! Oh and the Banana Nutella crepe hit the spot I love the Lavender Mocha! I didn't get to take a picture of it , but I did get a shot of my Turmeric Lemonade that I ordered for the road, so refreshing!!

    Turkey Breast Panini with fries.
    Lisa B.

    I got a bunch of takeout paninis and one order of crêpes. The Panini came with fries or chips. The French fries were really good. Thick cut with the skin still on. The bread on the Panini's is crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. It complements the sandwich and is not overwhelming. The sandwiches have a nice amount of fillings. We got the turkey breast panini, ham and cheese panini and the portobello cheese panini. All are delicious. The crepes are banana and Nutella. The crêpes are tender and flavorful with fresh bananas. The Gorgonzola Pecan salad is well constructed and there's enough to share. It has fresh strawberries, dried cranberries, chicken, and Gorgonzola. The vinaigrette was tasty. It makes a healthy addition to the sandwiches/paninis. The service was very efficient and friendly. Shout out to Ariana. The place is very large with lots of comfortable seating. Cutely decorated. This is a very cool place for lunch or breakfast if you're in the area.

    I love this place! Went a couple weeks ago with a friend…read moreand had the Croque Madame which was great! This time I brought 4 friends in for lunch and they absolutely loved it! Two of us had the Crab Melt and it was AMAZING! I'm definitely a regular with this little hidden treasure in Menifee!

    Well, let me first state by saying that I haven't had a meal there yet. I went to check it out but…read moreI had just eaten so I had a beer. I met one of the owners and he was very charming and we had a nice chat and he handed me a discount coupon for a free appetizer or something for my return which is a clever move. It's a refreshing nicely curated interior, unseen in the Menifee area. This brings a little "elevated" sophistication to retirement central! A ray of SUN in the CITY one might say. Applebee's regulars be prepared for a new experience that might shock you if you can take the leap. The lovely plated dishes coming out of that kitchen were top-notch architectural masterpieces. I will have to return soon, but I'm vegetarian so I might have some limitation, but we'll see. Maybe they'll whip something up? The interior is trying to be real hip and it sort of works in a positive way but a little bit of that modern gauche. You know, kind of like Z gallery meets mid-century with a slight Lichtenstein tribute with a cartoonish flavour. It does work though, and carries to the exterior or the exterior carries to the interior? With the limitations of a strip mall it's a little bit hard to put lipstick on a pig. But they've executed it well and it's inviting and a departure from the norm. I'm excited to get there soon.
