If you've ever dreamed of wandering into a Parisian patisserie, this charming little gem is about…read moreas close as it gets without a passport. The space itself is chic and impossibly cute, a mini cafe that feels like a hidden boutique find, quaint in all the right ways. The croissants are the genuine article: buttery, flaky layers with that perfect golden exterior that only comes from someone who truly knows what they're doing. Every pastry here is crafted with care and it shows in every bite. And the mocha coffee? That alone is worth the trip. Rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced, it pairs beautifully with anything in the pastry case. The staff are warm and genuinely welcoming, making the whole experience feel personal rather than transactional. One thing to keep in mind: this is not a drive-through. It's a small owner-operated cafe where everything is made with intention. Come with time to spare, settle in, and let the experience unfold. Good things take time, and here that philosophy is baked right into everything they do. Yes, prices lean a bit higher than your average coffee shop, but this is quality you can taste. You're paying for authentic French technique that honors the tradition. La Princière is a Thousand Oaks treasure worth every unhurried minute.

It's too bad that this review is only listed under bakeries because there's so much more here. The bakery items are wonderful. My personal favorites are the little individual tiramisu and their chocolate covered coconut balls, which I've never seen any place else. They're huge! All the routine pastries are available and freshly made, as well as as a couple Persian delicacies. Try the cream puffs! But what I also love about this place is their breakfasts. Some of the local breakfast places get too crowded with long rating lines but here you can be seated in a covered shaded area outside or Next door at the restaurant that they're attached to. Some of my favorites are their omelettes and scrambles, and although I can probably make those myself at home, they somehow make them taste better than any place else. I particularly like the vegetable omelette. Of course they have a tasty avocado toast that seems to be a local favorite. The eggs Benedict are perfectly prepared and the.Challah French toast is definitely worth breaking a diet over and what is an excellent breakfast without a great cup of coffee? You can get that here including American coffee, cappuccino, espresso, and even Turkish coffee. I love this place! And if you miss breakfast/brunch time, Maral Cuisine is great for their shish kebabs, salads, and traditional Persian cuisine.

My wife and I specifically went to this restaurant for breakfast based on yelp reviews. First…read moreimpressions; the main dining room I felt was slightly 'stuffy' if that's the word- it looked more like a dinner dining room rather than a breakfast / lunch location in a strip mall. They have done a really good job with the patio and I could see that getting really busy, it wasn't the day we were there as it was a colder day. I ordered the avocado toast that came with a couple of poached eggs and the side I got was a cup of barley soup, my wife ordered the french toast with a side of bacon . The quality of the food was excellent in both cases, tasted good although I felt my food was on the colder side for sure when we finally got it and it was very plain; food took a while considering they weren't that busy. The service was good but not excellent, our waiter came back to check on us once when I thought maybe I caught his eye . I think there's definitely some room for improvement but it won't hold me from coming back... I will definitely give it another try; footnote- a lot of their ingredients are organic and of what I understand they bake all of their bread and pastry items in house. definitely worth a try. Oh, my caffe latte was superb!

Wow was I impressed! The regular cupcakes are delicious; the frosting is impeccable; not overly sweet, delicious and light. The gluten-free?!? Honestly, that was my favorite! The gluten-free one that we tried was the cookies and cream. The four pack was vanilla, birthday cake, coconut, and lemon. The gluten-free thing is new to us, as my kid was recently diagnosed celiac. One of the first things that my kiddo was worried about with celiac disease was not being able to have birthday cake. We are 1000% getting all birthday cakes here. (sorry about the lack of photos, we couldn't stop eating them)

Hah! Viktor Benes = Mamolo Different name and packaging. Same quality same taste. Still loving it…read more Feeling like wanting to get a good eclair. Stumbled upon Mamolo's fine pastry. Drove here and couldnt find the place. It was inside the Gelson's. I wonder why there? Gelson's have Viktor? Then I read the announcement. ( duh, didnt take picture of the poster ) anyhow. Glad that its the same bakery. The ladies are super nice and polite. Love the new design too.

My first time stopping into Gelson's to grab some desserts from Mamolo's Fine Pastries was great…read more There were so many options to choose from. There was a variety of cookies, muffins, pastries, cakes, etc. I decided to buy their small fruit tart, chocolate fantasy, chocolate eclair, and chocolate cake pop. All of the desserts were bought were delicious. The chocolate fantasy is for chocolate lovers. It was very rich with all chocolate flavors. The fruit tart was refreshing with a great flavored crust. The eclair had a lot of custard filling. The chocolate cake pop was very rich and moist. This bakery makes delicious items! It is on the more expensive side so be prepared to spend a little extra money. The items I bought were $8 each and the cake pop was $5. I would come back to try other items!

Drove all the way from Burbank just to check out Carrara's Pastry Shop in Agoura Hills--and wow,…read morethey absolutely did not disappoint. It's a small, charming café with a cozy atmosphere, featuring old-school car collectibles displayed on a shelf that add a unique touch. They also offer outdoor seating where you can enjoy your desserts surrounded by lush greenery, natural foliage, and a peaceful little waterfall pond. The service was great as well, they were friendly and welcoming and answered all my questions. suggested I definitely I ended up picking up a chocolate and hazelnut cake with an incredibly soft, spongy interior that was perfectly balanced and rich without being overwhelming. I also grabbed a single serving of the blueberry cheesecake, which was light, airy, and still decadently satisfying--definitely worth every spoonful. The rum babas were a standout: bite-sized, soaked in Jamaican rum, filled with Chantilly cream, and topped with a raspberry. So flavorful and unique--each bite was indulgent without being too heavy. And then there was the Velina cake... oh my goodness. A beautiful sponge layered with chocolate mousse and hazelnut mousse, all covered in a glossy dark chocolate glaze. It was so rich and decadent that I had to slow myself down just to fully enjoy every bite. Everything tasted fresh, thoughtfully made, and worth the drive. I'd absolutely come back again.

We were greeted right away, and we let one of the people working there know we wanted to take a look around as it was our first time stopping in, which was okay. The shop itself was empty. We took a look at the ice cream selection, the full cakes, and then the pastries. Everything looked really good. We decided on a chocolate trilogia pastry and a red velvet pastry to go. The transaction went well. When we got home, we ate the goodies. The trilogia was fresh and had great flavor. The red velvet, unfortunately, did not meet expectations. The cake part was dry, and the frosting was dense and had little flavor. Maybe I just ended up getting an older one, but at $8.25, I had expected a much better item. The service was great, but as a red velvet lover, the flavor was not as expected. I would potentially try again but would sample some other treats.

Loved this little spot!…read more If you're looking for a coffee place with a view and tchotchkes to throw money at, this is the place! They are so much more than a coffee spot though. They have small bites like cookies and sandwiches as well as a WIDE VARIETY of tinctures -which was really unexpected. I got an iced dirty chai and it was pretty good. Parking is free and easy to find. Order/pay at the register. Service was fine.

Besides amazing coffee drinks, they offer so much more, and are always changing menu items based on the seasons. For instance they have a summer menu that includes a frozen espresso drink, frozen matcha drinks, and an affogato drink! Yum!! The pastry chefs are also amazing, and the dessert creations are not only beautiful to look at, they also taste great with clean ingredients. They have the best chocolate chip gluten free cookie around!! They also have a delicious breakfast burrito!! And if you love gelato, they have that too! Amazing flavors and taste!! This is also a great place to study, work, or meet friends. The staff is always attentive and professional and the ambiance is wonderful!! They will also validate parking with a purchase!!

The location makes it easy to grab coffee and breakfast without having to go far, and the staff were genuinely friendly and welcoming. The pastries were surprisingly amazing and definitely a highlight. I also ordered a latte, which was smooth, creamy, and well made. The only downside is the pricing, as items are noticeably more expensive compared to most local coffee shops. That said, the quality and convenience make it a solid choice, particularly for hotel guests.

This location in Westlake Village didn't have that, so it's on it's own. Sigh. Robust and delicious-sounding menu with variety, I already had my morning coffee, and was meeting some family for a late breakfast. I pondered and pondered, and decided on the Sweet Potato and Feta Fritata, served with a salad and 2 kinds of bread (the real reason I ordered). * Bread, awesome. * Salad, really good. * Fritata, dry and no seasoning (needed salt big time) Still, I ate every bit.

The partially cooked bacon was $6.50 for four small slices and the service non-existent. Our water cups ran dry after the first fill and no offer to refill. Our friend at the table made the unfortunate mistake of substituting the peaches on his French toast with strawberries. He was charged $6.95 for a fruit bowl plus and her $3.95 because the fruit bowl was all strawberries. This was in addition to his French toast breakfast. Our final bill for two was close to $70 and we had no beverages other than water. Way too pricey for this weak breakfast experience.
