Overpriced and inedible food - and when you bring it to their attention, they just say that's how they make it and there's nothing wrong with it. I can tell you there's something wrong with it if you can't fight into a sandwich because the bread is too darn hard because of over toasted and burnt. read more

Food is solid, but have only tried a few breakfast items. Ambiance is way too crowded, chaotic, and overstimulating. Workers aren't very nice probably because it's always so packed. read more

This place is very cute and part of a small group of restaurants/shops I enjoy. I've mainly come here for the beverages or a few to go items. Every latte I've gotten has been good but I do wish they expanded their menu a little. Maybe adding matcha or other teas like an earl grey. I think that would make a big difference. Also the drinks in the little mart are quite overpriced (I'm talking 12$ for a soda prices). I have tried a few interesting things but not worth the price. Their salad which is to go is actually great quality though! I would say overall I love this spot but it can be overpriced and their drink menu can expand a bit. read more

I never skip coming here when I'm back in town. It's my favorite grab and go spot. I crave their kale salad everytime I'm away and their sushi is so fresh. I also never leave without their passion fruit tea. So refreshing. The service is great and the inside is so cute. I always need to buy something from the shop. read more

La Grande Orange - Sushi, passion fruit tea, kale salad - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

The food here is really healthy and nicely made cooked, and the serve of the staff was really friendly

This is the ultimate Arcadia gem. I always bring out of towers here. From the food to the gift shop, I've never been disappointed. Also, their orange blossom and holiday candles are to die for- they're legit the only candles I burn in my house year round. My only complaint is that I wish they had a bigger parking lot because this place is always slammed, but that would obviously take away from this sweet little neighborhood spot. Love. read more

TL:DR - cute place that seems to always be packed I came here for a quick coffee the other day, but I have tried some of their actual food. The Honey latte was really good, if a touch sweet for my taste. Their English muffins are so so good, but they are quite expensive considering I have a starter at home. The commuter sandwich is a really great combo, and their pastries and desserts are all pretty solid. read more

This review is only for the cakes at La Grande Orange. I came with a weekend dessert hankering with two of my girl friends to sample La Grande Orange's decadent cake selection. I'd heard of this cute little shop before, but hadn't had the chance to come in. It's a sort of brunch-coffee-dessert-indie store hybrid. Really cute, pretty crowded, and somewhat cramped with seating. Service was friendly and quick. Red velvet cake: The six layers with even cream cheese frosting in between in each layer looked so inviting. The layers could have been a touch more even, especially the middle layer, but that's difficult to do. The cream cheese frosting was less on the tart side, which made this cake suuuuper rich. I liked the crumble on the cake, but it was a touch dry. Berry compote cheesecake: This was an incredibly dense cheesecake with tart berry compote on top. I thought the berry compote was a great idea, but it was so solid that it was more of a jelly. I would have preferred a jigglier berry compote to ease some of the denseness of the cheesecake. The little chocolate swirls on top were a nice festive touch, but I wish they were a peppermint flavor rather than just plain white chocolate, as I think that would have been more refreshing. Lime meringue pie: I was really impressed with how the meringue had been shaped in this pie, but quickly realized that it was not meringue, but whipped cream. I rather liked the combination, as the tartness of the lime was balanced with the creaminess of the whipped cream. The whipped cream was solid heavy cream though, barely any sugar or vanilla of any kind. The first few bites were great, but it got one-dimensional pretty quickly. Had there been some vanilla or sweetness to the whipped cream, I think it would have held onto my palate better. It's also a hefty tower of whipped cream to lime curd ratio, and I would have preferred a more even spread. Cake slices were $5.25 and up, with the six-layer red velvet cake being more expensive. I think for the price I was expecting a little more, but I'm glad I got to try La Grande Orange. read more

Another Arcadia Lite staple nestled in a cute neighborhood with a plethora of offerings for breakfast, lunch and dinner. They truly have something for everyone. Personally, I'm more of an LGO dinner fan. Their pizza is top notch, and as others have mentioned before, their crust is out of this world. Its thin and crispy, but also has a doughy-ness to it that makes gives it a wide variety of textures. Plus, the flavor is stellar! Highly recommend their corn pizza. It might sound a bit different than traditional pizza you're used to, but it's really out of this WORLD. Breakfast and lunch is overall decent. They have great coffee, but I've always found the food to be incredibly mediocre and overpriced for what it is. Although, I'm willing to look past this as I shovel my Commuter breakfast sandwich in my mouth while perusing the trinket and knick knack area (it's wonderful and there are some great finds if you look close enough). As for the negatives, there aren't many things that are truly outstanding or consistent. There are only two things I'll point out: 1) The parking is always a nightmare. Tip: instead of parking in the front lot, park in the back in the lot next to Postino and walk in through the kitchen. You're much more likely to find a spot, and won't be stuck sitting on 40th street blocking traffic while waiting for a mom and her 6 kids to pile in their minivan and then drive the wrong way out of the parking lot. 2) The customer service is extremely hit or miss. One day, you'll walk in and be greeted by a friendly cashier who's eager to hear about your day and be your best friend. The next day, you'll walk in and observe the entire staff wanting to simultaneously swan dive off the roof. It's truly bizarre, but also understandable. If I had to deal with the middle aged entitled Arcadia mom crowd day in and day out, I'd probably feel the same way. Ending on a positive note, I'll also say that their gelato is absolute FIRE. They always have a few rotating flavors to accompany their standard flavors. If they have the raspberry cheesecake gelato, game over. Overall, if you're in the Arcadia Lite hood, this place is a must. Just be wary of the front parking lot and swan diving employees. read more

This charming cozy spot is a little market/cafe/pizzaria/bar. I especially like their ready made, to go items when I need to grab lunch to take somewhere. Love the Evil Princess Thai Salad or the Spicy chickpea wraps and of course the Pimento Cheese is awesome. NOT crazy about the counter service. Parking is limited so I always have a backup place to go to when I can't get a spot. I just don't want to deal with the hassle. read more

I come here quite a bit for a coffee or lunch. The food is great and I like the cute gifts. The parking is tough, but it doesn't keep me away. However, some people that work there though make me want to take my business elsewhere. One girl at the register has zero personality or communication skills. She got my drink wrong because it's loud in there, and instead of clarifying anything, she just puts in whatever she thinks she heard and says nothing. Another was super rude when I pulled up to curbside, before I could even communicate what I ordered, she cut me off and scolded me for parking in the curbside space (which was also the only space) and walked away. So I still had to go in and pick up my to-go order. And she still got a tip. You're welcome! What's with this generation? read more

This place is the real deal. I made a stop here after discovering them at the Phoenix airport. The margarita pizza was delish and the cookies are worth the trip by themselves! read more

We moved away from the Arcadia area and wished we had a La Grande Orange in North Scottsdale! Always a clean place with friendly staff and plenty of healthy food options. We always pop in anytime in the area and snag ALL the cookies and pastries and coffee. La Grande Orange is the perfect place to meet up with a friend or colleague to have a casual catch-up. You can grab a sandwich, parfait, or salad from the grab n go fridge or order a shareable lunch item from their walk-up counter. Forever and always been a fan and wish there were more multi-use grocery, bakery, and pizzeria concepts around town. Check out La Grande Orange and show them all the love! read more

I just ordered La Grande Orange off of DoorDash and was pleasantly surprised. I ordered the Croque Madame and the French Pancakes and the food came hot and right on time, and they gave me lots of utensils and napkins which was a nice touch. The Croque Madame was amazing, the flavors and texture paired perfectly and it was one of the best Breakfast Sandwiches I've had in a while. Even the presentation was beautiful. The French Pancakes are actually Crepes, they were good but not great. There wasn't much to them. I would pass on those next time. I would definitely come back for more! read more

The first thing that sends out about this place is the atmosphere. It's super fun that it's connected to a small grocery store and coffee shop, and gelato place. The menu is fun and creative, with great pizzas of all sorts. I'll be back! read more

A staple in Phoenix. Pizza is superb. Sweet treats on the cafe side are to die for (carrot cake was so good). Have given many gift cards to friends to this place and they love it. Come here!!!! ESP if you are visiting Phoenix. read more

Blonde Bartender with glasses was very rude. Was not very welcoming and made us as customers feel like we were an inconvenience to him when we wanted to order a quick drink he rudely asked us not to sit in the seat because it would deter other customers even though we had our own table and we were just waiting for our drinks. Not a good way to earn business. However the pizza was phenomenal and delicious ! read more

Sourdough pizza crust? Ho-Hos but homemade? Yes please! Love this local eatery and all the yummy desserts!

One of the best sourdough pizza doughs I've ever had. Their baked goods are some of the best I've ever had. Kale and quinoa salad is a must try. read more

Let me start of with a few recommendations: The salads at La Grande Orange are so uniquely delicious. You have to try the kale/quinoa or the Sonoma chop salad. If you are in the mood, they have a great selection of sommelier-selected wines at a good price. Alternatively, you can't go wrong with the margarita or the aperol spritz. Next, try the wood grilled wings or any of the specialty pizzas. LEAVE ROOM FOR DESSERTS! They make them fresh at the bakery next door - and you can't beat that! To top it all off, the service here is great. The atmosphere is eclectic and energetic. It is a great place to take the whole family for dinner or take your friends out for drinks! read more

Pretty good place for a quick bite, coffee shop vibe, has a Pizzaria attached to it, and brunch. I ordered their potatos and the French pancakes. The french pancakes are actually crepes. I guess that's what French pancakes are. For $10 the crepes are a bit small in serving...it doesn't come with any sides. read more

One of our favorites!! Best fired pizza pie!! Amazing bakery. Wait staff are constantly stellar!! We're there at least once a week!

Two sandwiches, two drinks, almost $50. The staff also asks for tips when you have to pick up your own order and clean your own table

Prices went up and quality went down. Ordered a salad through DoorDash and I don't even know where to begin with the grossest part. The avocado is black, the Turkey is dry and rubbery, they gave me an end piece that looks anything but edible. Will not be going back if this is the quality for a $16 salad read more

i got a margarita pizza and it was very good! a little on the pricey side, and the layout of the restaurant makes for a bit of a tight fit when ordering (before 5pm) some bitch named chad stole my pizza. but other than that i enjoyed! read more

Very cool atmosphere with all the beautiful people. Feels like you're in French market in the out skirts of Paris. Great variety of food.

Expensive sandwich for chicken that was dry and under flavored. The sauce on the side that came with it was actually good. Tangy and I think it was homemade. But the rest couldn't make up for it. Coffee was ok too. It's a pretty location and the gift shop is cute but the food was disappointing so I'm giving a 3. read more

Second time we've found a hair in our gelato. We live in the neighborhood and want to support local businesses. This place is already overpriced. Now we can't even rely on quality products that are safe for consumption. Please do better LGO! We love you and want to see you do better. read more

Sonoma Chopped Salad was disappointing. Minimal added ingredients. No table service, but an 18% minimum recommended tip? I don't think so!

English muffins for sale for 1250 per package of five. I think they are overpriced however they're good.

One of my most favorite places to get pizza in Arizona! The store itself is soo cute with cute gifts and groceries. There are plenty of gf options, too! My favorite is the avocado pizza with prosciutto! I also tried the gf chocolate cake this time and it was incredible. If you are out in this area of Arizona, this is a must. The employees were so kind and helpful, as well! read more

Sigh....I hate it when business owners/corporations focus solely on the bottom line and ruin a place in the process. Enter La Grande Orange. Yelp recently published a list of the best chocolate chip cookies by state and Arizona's was La Grande Orange. I'd never heard of it and knew that I had to check it out, especially after visiting their website. "How cute!" I mused to myself. La Grande Orange should be everything Yelpers love. It's located in the heart of Phoenix's Arcadia neighborhood, brings together a community vibe, and sources a lot of local products. The gift shop IS adorable. Unfortunately, this place is totally chaotic. They've taken a small space (I suspect it has spread out over the years) and eaten up literally every square inch with product. I dare you to walk through this place and not bump into someone (not figuratively speaking) or something. To add to the chaos, you have weird systems. You order at the counter ("any register" according to the menu). I found a menu and stood at the register...for about five minutes. Finally, a server came over, "Have you been helped yet?" Nope! I ordered an iced coffee (a very nice Thai Basil & Mint with Coconut foam) and my food items. I was told that my name would be called out "about five minutes later." Not exactly true. My iced coffee was put at the end of the bar but never called. Then came the sh#$show with the food items. Two of my food items (bacon and oatmeal, if you must know!) were sitting on the counter along with my ticket. I kept waiting for the yogurt to come out. I finally walked up to the counter, "Should I just take these while I wait for the yogurt?" I was then informed that the yogurt was grab & go in one of the fridges in the gift shop. Would have been nice to know! The dining room is unattended and you just grab a table or one of the seats at the long chef's table. This was fine other than the fact they were pumping the music up. Unless I'm going to a place to get hammered at a boozy brunch like Hash Kitchen, I don't want music blasting during breakfast (they do serve alcohol but not even till 4!). A man sitting next to me had his laptop out and I seriously was mystified at how he was able to concentrate with the annoying background music. Undoubtedly, the vibe must be different in the evening, but this was 9 am on a Saturday! I want to slowly wake up and have a conversation with my breakfast companions. Then it was time to use the restroom. I looked around for signs. None up. I navigated the minefield back into the main room/store. Didn't want to trip and knock over a rack of wine that I'd have to pay for. I finally found an employee. When I asked her where the restroom was her answer floored me: "In the kitchen." Yup! You walk THROUGH the kitchen to use one of two restrooms (kudos on them being gender-neutral, though!). The whole thing felt unhygienic to me. The kitchen staff seemed pleasant enough. "Those pancakes look awesome!" I said to a chef on my way out. When I realized that the food pick-up area was so close to the restrooms that also kind of freaked me out. Not to mention all the other customers who loiter around, waiting for their food. I'm not super picky but we live in an era of coronaviruses and other weird stuff (Monkeypox was just declared a THING by the WHO this very morning!). I don't want other people hanging around my food! A cough and a sneeze with your avocado toast? No thanks. Hey La Grande Orange, ever considered giving diners a table card and bringing it out to them? Another perk? Less foot traffic in your already-crammed space! It was obvious that the employees hate working here. Can you blame them? They want to work in a cool cafe and mingle with cool guests. Instead, they work in a zoo which must be mentally draining. On my way out, I bought Yelp's recommended chocolate chip cookie. The employee who sold it to me looked like she wanted to murder me. They don't like getting bumped into themselves or giving directions to a restroom that should have clear signage. Shame on the owners of this place for creating such a bad environment for their employees and guests. How was the food? The cookie is still in a bag in my kitchen (I also bought a slice of carrot cake that I haven't tried yet). The yogurt and granola were lackluster and the fruit they curated in it was disappointing. The bacon was perfectly crisp. The oatmeal was awesome and a steal at $6 (generally, price points look reasonable). I was exhausted after my 30-minute visit here (Happy Saturday!). Navigating the restaurant and its unique processes was not something I was up for today (note to self: arrive drunk next time and it'll be funny). My advice if you decide to venture here is to come when they first open at 7 am. Get here before it gets packed and before the employees get surly. In cooler weather, grab one of the few tables outside. It would remove the loud music and the impact of so many people packed into a tight space. read more

The food was good but costly considering the portion we got, the music was way too loud along with everyone talking around us and the music didn't match the surroundings and/or demeanor or ambiance of the place, the service was good but it was very hard to hear. read more

Parking, parking, parking. Crap, not enough space! The greatest drawback of eating here is the severe lack of parking. Otherwise this is a charming eatery with great tasting coffee. When we were there in the late morning, before the lunch crowd arrived, it was already bustling with energy. We ordered our cappuccinos and perused the merchandise while we waited for the barista to make them. Interesting knick-knacks and gifts for all. By the time we had finished our cappuccinos, there were lines of people waiting to pick up food and we noticed many people ordered their food to go. Finding a table depends on luck. As we were served, an empty table materialized because another group was just leaving. We enjoyed the whole experience and only gave four stars because of parking. Eat, drink and enjoy this local establishment. read more
