    Venue 5/5 Same as always, easy to find parking, garage across restaurant for rainy days. Lovely cafe to catchup with friends or chat business. Wait times can be long (20min+) on weekends if you don't have reservation during lunch hours. Service 5/5 Staff are very attentive, food comes out quickly and water refills or check ins are great. Food 4/5 The toast sandwiches have gotten a little bit less ingredients in it, the bun is still the same but the meat portion has a little bit less now. They have added more pastas and entrees for a more filling lunch/dinner menu. The bakery I'd recommend to come earlier in the day as they will sell out in the afternoon for the popular options.

    We were trying to find a new place to go. I remember Yelp had an event here long time ago. So we came back. We like the dish display here. And the atmosphere was so relaxing. It was pretty good for the friends' reunion, or quiet moment for the singles. We had ordered the Taiwanese Chicken Teppanyaki Noodles and Shan Shan Omurice. The sauce of the noodles was like black pepper sauce, it was over salted, but it's tasty. I like the sunny side up egg. The Omurice was egg over the fried rice. I like the well done beef, not over cooked, just right to me. The sauce was dark, but it was not salty. Perfect! I would totally love to come again.

    We came here on the Family Day Monday holiday and the wait around noonish was not too bad. While waiting we were enticed by their baked goods and each got a bag full of goodies. They had a lot of unique and delicious pastries that we don't often see elsewhere. The seating area once we got inside was pretty small and compact. The service was a bit slow despite having a lot of wait staff. I ordered a beef noodle soup and an osmanthus latte. The portion size for the entree was a good size, but also seemed a bit pricier than other places. The flavors were a bit mild, but eating it with the sides helped a bit.

    This place? A hidden gem in Scarborough. It's such a cute cafe with a proper dine in area and the menu is elaborate starting from hot to cold beverages and lots of food and sweet options as well. We ordered their iced tiramisu latte - came with a ladyfinger biscuit and it tastes so good, perfect drink if you're in need of caffeine to wake you up. My boyfriend got a buttercream espresso latte and he said it was delicious. Plus the small cookies/biscuits that came with it? YUM! We also got their milky filling bun which was not too sweet but so tasty and their Shan Shan special pork floss sandwich which was also really good. The staff were super warm and quick with their service and I'd 100% go back to try other menu items even though it's a 30 min drive for me!

    I think it's a bit pricy as the portion is not very big. I had the creamy bulgogi linguine, it was a bit on the sweet side for me. My friends had the beef omelette rice and pork strips skillet with a fried egg. Service was normal, they tried to sell us $120 gift card for $100. My friend's husband bought it as his parents would want to get the bakery items often. The bakery items had pretty fluffy pastry which I enjoyed. I ordered a latte too to finish off the meal. The dining room is bright, it's not too big but during lunch time we didn't have to wait to get seated. I didn't have to pay so I the experience was okay. I just wouldn't go back again because of the price, and it's far from me. The taste didn't wow me.

    Found this little gem online when looking for a place to meet a friend for lunch in my area. No idea what to expect, and it certainly did not disappoint! The interior is bright and was a good level of busy & full. Lots of big groups or people on 1 on 1 dates The Shan Shan omurice was DELICIOUS, great flavor! The steak was excellent, cooked medium! The omelet was very buttery. The Korean sandwich was just ok. Our server was cute and nice!

    Their pastries and seasonal desserts are always fresh and delicious. We also love their eat-in menu such as their steak omurice and bolognese. Their bruleed latte is also a great treat after a meal without opting for dessert.

    I was served my appetizer after my main course. The plating looked like it is fusion cuisine but it is really just Asian food dressed up nicely. They specializes in drinks, deserts and baked goods. My experience is lukewarm although the service was prompt. My appetizer was so salty it literally had salt crystals while I chew through it. Informed the servers twice and seems that they could not be bothered. Atmosphere is causal. Lots of improvement needed for the food and it's menu offering. I am leaving with dry mouth and thrist for water after the big intake of salt.

    I've been meaning to try out shanshancafe for the longest time! They get pretty busy, so I highly recommend making a reservation in advance. Luckily, I managed to walk in and get seated right away! They're so aesthetic! The interior is cute! Here's what I tried: Shan Shan Omurice (medium rare) Iced Matcha Lychee Soda Thai Tea Basque Cheesecake (Slice) Ice Cream Mini Pineapple Bun (takes 10-15 min to prep) Everything was delicious, and the food arrived quickly (except for the pineapple bun, which takes a bit longer). The only thing I probably wouldn't order again is the Thai Tea Basque Cheesecake--the Thai tea flavor was too subtle for my liking.

    I remember such a great experience from a Yelp event in the past so I had to revisit. It even satisfied picky kids like my little cousins. La Petite Colline / Shan Shan is super popular for brunch and reservations are full on the prime time on weekends. So, I recommend checking them out for dinner as since their dishes suits for dinner too and easier to get reservations. If it's full, you can also call in advance to be added to the waitlist to avoid the longer wait times. We ordered the steak frites, steak omurice, chicken katsu, smoke salmon toast and chicken udon carbonara. I recommend the chicken carbonara. The chicken may look a little pink, but has ham in it and seasoning is well infused into the chicken and the udon is delicious without being too heavy. All the egg toast and bakery section is a 5-star all around and we also got some bread to go. The drinks and desserts were also amazing. The steak dishes are probably the only slight let down. While they are perfectly cooked to medium in presentation, the meat was still a bit tough to chew through. So I'll recommend skipping the steak dishes. Overall the food, bakery and ambiance will still get me coming back for more. Make it a trip and hit up an escape room or VR game area a short drive away.

    This place is so cute. Parking: there's a bit of "on street" parking. A lot on the side of the building (that extends behind) and what looks like a covered parking garage when you first drive into the area. I'm. It sure if the garage is free but the rest are, so it should be. Building. There's a few eateries in the building. They are all accessed from the outside. This place is both bigger and smaller than I thought it would be. I think that has to do with really high ceilings. This is a place where you really need to have reservations of you want to sit in. I noticed take out is very popular. Everything on the menu sounded delicious. We ordered a couple of things my absolute favourite? The Brussels sprouts. They were the best I ever had. Their pastrues and baked goods sell out quick but they have bakers working all day so if something is sold out just wait a bit and it'll probably be back in stock and super fresh.

    Overall a really cute cafe. I think some of their items can be a bit pricey but I've enjoyed my food every time I've come. They have a lot of fancy and unique drinks. If you decide to go on a weekend, definitely book ahead of time as the cafe isn't super big. They only have one big table for large groups so if your party is over 6 I would definitely call ahead of time.

    Cute foods and drinks presentation, great lighting and interior, photo worthy spot! It feels like this place is always super packed, but decent customer service, and easy to find parking.

    I generally don't do coffee shops, but may have to start a new habit…read more I popped in one blustery cold morning and had a flat white with one of their chocolate chip brioche buns. It was perfect. Not too sweet! Just enough chocolate that had the bitter edge to it. The service will great, and the ambiance was calm and elegant. Definitely will be going back again.

    walking toward chinatown, this little french pâtisserie on the corner of queen st west and mccaul…read morecaught my eye. the black and white decor, french lettering and, most of all, that absolutely gorgeous chandelier were enough to pull me inside. the enormous crystal chandelier is almost theatrical, with layers of sparkling drops and ornate gold toned arms hanging in the centre of the store, over the pastry counter. between the marble like counters, glass display cases and big front windows looking out onto queen street, the whole space has a polished, old world french pâtisserie feel. no matcha here, so i switched things up with an oat milk latte instead, which was actually a nice change of pace. for the pastry, i went with the chocolate almond croissant. it looked every bit as tempting as the setting, with icing sugar and topped with a generous scattering of slivered almonds. after finding a table, i could also see an artisan baker working behind the glass, making what looked like raisin scones, which added a nice sense of theatre to the experience. aux merveilleux de fred is a french artisan pâtisserie known for its signature merveilleux, along with cramiques, waffles, meringues and viennoiseries, with the pastries made on site using traditional methods. texture wise, though, this one didn't quite hit the mark for me. there wasn't much lamination, and it lacked the crisp, flaky exterior i look for in a really good croissant. the slivered almonds also weren't toasted enough to give that extra nutty crunch. on the plus side, the chocolate and almond filling was generous, so there was no shortage of flavour in the middle. it just needed more of that buttery, layered pastry texture and a little more toasted almond flavour to really bring everything together. there was no cutlery provided, so this was very much a pastry you eat with your hands situation. fortunately, the icing sugar and filling were manageable with a few big bites and some paper napkins . sometimes you just have to commit. overall, this is a beautiful little stop on queen street west, especially if you're drawn in by aesthetic pâtisseries and elaborate interiors. the chandelier alone is worth looking up from the pastry case for, and being able to watch the bakers working behind the glass adds to the charm. i enjoyed the generous chocolate and almond filling, but for me, the croissant needed more layers, more crispness and more toasted almond flavour to make it truly memorable.

    My wife wanted to go there so we went on 2023-01-31 mid-morning when there would more selection…read more They definitely have quite a selection of pastries and savoury food. My wife always judges a French Cafe by their Butter Croissant ($3.00) and she liked it! She also noticed all the  staff speak French sp it gives it even more legitimacy.  She also ordered a Flat White ($4.50) which was also good. I ordered a Plum Almond Tart ($7.25) because it was the prettiest. It was super delicious so it was definitely a good choice! Service was courteous and friendly. You place your order at the counter and bring it to your table. Someone will come around to clear the dishes when you are done It is a great place to have a nice casual time eating and socializing. They make all their food in-house in the basement. There are products for sale such as coffee beans, fruit syrup, maple syrup, smoked sauces, olive oil, scented soap, wine glassware, etc. I will definitely come back again to try other items. There is free WiFi. The neo-bisto is not wheelchair accessible since there are stairs leading up to the entrance. There are two gender-neutral washrooms. There is free street parking on their one-way south-bound street. Review 2023-017

    Amazing place! I…read morecalled ahead to find out if they had this plum tart I purchased the first time I was there. Yet no one answered the phone. No problem. Hopped on my bike and a half hour later I was there. The friendly staff helped me by answering my question regarding eggs and which items did not have any in the recipes. This place was also super poppin' when I got there. It was earlish in the day around 10:30am and it seemed all the tables were pretty much taken. They are adding a dinner menu which is very exciting. Their pastries are phenomenal!!! Picked up a plum and pistachio tart, a chocolate mousse cake and an apple Danish for my mom. Plus a chocolate caramelized croissant. So much butter, and yet so good. Brought my container, which they happily used. The last time I visited this spot back in 2022, I vowed I would come back and take up space in that beautiful bay window seat. Yet I haven't followed through with that yet. One day. They also changed the name, since I was there last it was called Le Conciliabule Lab. Le Conciliabule means, "speak easy", as their website says. It was used back in the day to describe a place where people would come together and talk about everything and nothing. I can definitely say that happens here. What a beautiful concept, "everything and nothing". Now named Bisou, which means kiss. That's actually really simple and sweet. Since every pastry and any food item or beverage enjoyed here is a kiss for your tastebuds. Love it. Keep going team. You are amazing!
