Food items were left on top of the case uncovered and flys were landing on the food. Another customer pointed this out to the employees working and they didn't seem to care, they made no attempt to put the items in the covered case. I respect a business being busy, however, I imagine flys landing on food and it still being served has to be some sort of health code violation. read more

This macaron pastry was tasting pretty good, but there was MOLD on the raspberry. I bought it today in the late afternoon around 4pm. Good selection but I wish they made sure the fruits were fresh. read more

Honestly one of my favorite places to grab a coffee and croissant. Every time I have the intention of picking something up to go, I always end up staying because the environment and the service is so welcoming, I can't help but want to hang out there a bit. Today there was a new person behind the counter making drinks named Cristofer. I ordered my fave, the "OMG Latte", and I was sitting down at my seat when I glanced up and watched him put the finishing touches on my drink. The effort and enthusiasm he had when creating my drink, made me eager to taste it even more. When he finished my drink, the pride he carried behind his smile as my husband picked up my drink, defines what good customer service looks like. Of course the OMG latte made me say "OMG" as I sipped my first sip. Thank you Cristofer for enjoying what you do, you made this experience an even better one Forgot to take a picture because it tasted so good! read more

I patiently waited for Pandor to move into the Marketplace during the pandemic... I wasn't sure what to expect and wished it might be a bit like Porto's, but it's not. The logo and decor have a subtle Parisian style, but I'm not sure about the "Lebanese influence" other yelpers have mentioned. Something is missing from the ambiance; I cannot pinpoint it, but at least the ambiance isn't bad. There's a bit too much going on in this small retail space... but the diverse offerings may help with survival during this economic time. Between the display case / counter and dining tables, retail displays feature packaged tea and packaged breads for gifts and takeaway, respectively. I stopped by in the afternoon, after any lunch rush, and browsed the display case with its beautiful macarons and decadent pastries. But gelati was more attractive on that sunny day and I got a scoop of the stracciatella. The line wasn't too long, but I was surprised to find a line mid-afternoon. The server politely provided a few tasting spoons to ensure my selection. As I enjoyed my dessert, I knew I'd return to try the cubano sandwich as well as the coffee station at the front of cafe. read more

If I could put zero stars I would. Went to have a pastry with my daughter and she ordered pumpkin spice latte. We got cappuccinos with no flavor. We had to ask for plates, utensils. We asked for dining in and they put our pastries in bags. We understand they were trying to close early, but we weren't the last guests to order. We won't ever come back. As someone who worked in fine dining, the way of cleaning was disgusting and not correct. What I saw wasn't up to health code standards. read more

Delicious! Amazing lattes regular and lavender honey lattes are so creamy and delicious. Customer service is great in this cozy cafe. So many pastries to choose from as well as other breakfast items. Will definitely go back to try crepes and some of their pastry items and quiche. Yum! read more

The best almond croissant I've ever had. The lavender latte was so delicious. I had it with oat milk which is optional. We also tried the OMG butter cake which was OMG literally. My husband had the chocolate hazelnut cake which was tasty and fresh We were lucky to get there before a line formed and I did notice the line was moving slow but they were well staffed, but well worth the wait. Next time I'll try something from the breakfast or lunch menu. They also have gelato, beer and wine Highly recommended read more

Great food, reasonable price and good quality, really enjoyed each visit to Pandor Irvine

I love every single dish . And desserts They just need to hire , people that can understand . read more

Honestly this was a rather disappointing meal experience. The food descriptions sounded very impressive but the reality was very boring, dull and flavorless. I had an omelet that was over cooked, not much of the bacon, onions or cheese. The potatoes they offered were terrible, no flavor and way too many peppers! When My friend received her omelet she had a nice piece of white-type bread, when mine came I had something that looked like Rye.... I asked if I could get what my friend had and they said " they give you what they have available" WOW!! Really? Not exactly customer friendly! I will not go back it was not how I would spend my money in the future....sorry read more

So I've visited this bakery at least 6 times before writing this review and the conclusion is that this place is inconsistent. Sometimes you'll get a superb meal (which is why I kept going back) but other times the food is passable, but the last time I was there today was simply bad. They put so much sauce on my sandwich it was inedible. Interestingly, I've ordered the Via Havana sandwich at least 4 times and each time it's different. Sometimes it has pickles and jalapeños, sometimes it doesn't, other times it has sauce and sometimes it doesn't. They don't seem to follow their recipes so the meals are just random. Also, I understand everyone is short staffed so I don't judge that part of the service but when you're served, staff isn't necessarily friendly. I get that they're busy but doesn't mean you have to act annoyed. This is not a one time observation, it's always been like that. After today, I've decided I'm not returning. It's too inconsistent and lacking customer service. Hopefully things get better soon. read more

My favorite place to get breakfast. The bread is so consistently delicious. The coffee is next to perfection. The eggs could not be cooked better. read more

This 8-inch cake I paid for apparently shrunk to 6.5 inches. However, it might be that I bought a cake that an 8-inch box would hold. If so, that is clever advertising on Pandor's part. Otherwise, paid $12.19 ($8.13 per inch) too much for this playdoh art cake. read more

Great turkey and brie sandwich. Their pastries looked great. Nice atmosphere and you can have wine there, too.

Gina S makes a great semi-sweet almond mocha - not too sugary and not flat tasting. Located at the Tustin Marketplace next to BJ's Restaurant read more

Very excited to have this open in this neighborhood. We've been patronizing the original location in Newport since it opened. Was a little disappointed with our recent visit. I ordered an omelet and asked to substitute the side salad for fruit. I was told that there was a $3.50 upcharge for the fruit. I was ok with that knowing that fruit costs more than lettuce. However, the "fruit" was a few pieces of banana and berries. I'm OK paying extra for fruit but I expected better for the $3.50 upcharge. read more

I really like the food at this place but today I ordered an omelet with potatoes, the omelet as always delicious but the potatoes had something that was very spicy, it seems they threw a lot of pepper on the potato, my mouth was burning too much, after several visits I left frustrated why did i have to drink a lot of water because my mouth was burning read more

The best and unique pastries. My BF loves the lattes. So happy when i moved i found one closer to home.

The baguette was the surprise of the day. It was really good as is but when toasted it was even better. The fruit tart was good but the almond croissant was the winner. As soon as you bite into the croissant you do not want to put it down. The ice chai latte was delicious as well. I would definitely come back here and have some of their food in the near future. read more

The staff was friendly. I asked for no onion and chives but they ended up putting chives in one of my dishes. When they took it and brought it back, it still had chives... It seems like they tried to take it off instead of make a new one. Not very professional in that I could have been allergic to chives and had a reaction to them leaving it in there... I had to manually pick it out myself, for the ones that were still left there. The matcha latte was extremely sweet. When asked if they had sweetened it, they said no, and asked if I wanted it sweetened. At first I thought it may have been the milk that they use, maybe the milk is just sweet. Then later I realized it's the matcha they use because there was a granulated sugar that i bit into... Really bizarre and strange. I don't like my matcha sweetened nor added sugar to it. They had a nice sitting area outside, but just unfortunate that the experience was just meh. read more

The pastries are great but drinks might be inconsistent. I love the honey lavender latte but today the person who helped me seemed to be new. I don't know how but the honey lavender latte I was given today was the most bitter thing I've ever had read more

I have yet to try their food or savory items but I had the almond croissant, almond chocolate croissant, cream puffs, and a couple of items that I don't recall the names for. Every item was delicious. Cream puffs weren't out of this world and although very tasty nothing special. The almond croissants both types however were the best croissants I've had. They have this filling that is neither custard or cream in consistency and texture but it is so addictive! I've been trying to take it easy on the carbs but this item totally knocked me off of my low carb kick single-handedly! You have to get the croissants. Although I will say in terms of aesthetic appeal the croissants if you only look at them might not seem appetizing because it looks more like croissant gloop than the traditional fluffy type. Service was self serve for pastries but good. Ambiance is just a traditional looking cafe nothing too special but I am definitely going back to try their breakfast items! Parking is easy in the same plaza as cha Chas. Go there and get the pastries but don't take all of my croissants! read more

Definitely recommend this place! It's adorable and elegant. Reminds me of a French bakery with all its classiness, and I feel like I'm in Ratatouille. Try the OMG Latte -- it's mouthwatering. And pair it with one of their baked goods or meals. French Toast was hands down my favorite! The fruit was so fresh and the cream was light and perfectly sweet. Will return in the future most definitely. read more

My husband and tried this place for Sunday brunch after we saw an ad. We both enjoyed our food and definitely recommend it to others. The cozy place, super clean along with yummy and affordable food. Definitely a place to come back to in near future. Thanks for your service read more

Food is okay but service is not good. Waited in line, no one takes order and was told to go back to end of line again.

Smells awesome as soon as you walk in.pastries freshly baked bread and coffee. I had a lavender latte and eggs Benedict and my girlfriend had a omelette with a side salad. I have to say the best part though was the staff.very polite and helpful,made you feel welcome. read more

It was a good experience. The food was great. So was the service. This location is better than the one in Newport.

First time here and I love it! I had the croque madame and it was so good. The eggs, ham, and bread was perfect. Their coffee is way better than Starbucks. I also got a box of pastries but too full to eat them now read more

I've been here a few times. Food are good. Service is fast and staff are always nice.

One of the best bakeries around, there's something for everyone here if you are willing to give it a try more than once. I tend to like pastries that have a bit more European flair (more fatty/buttery/flaky, much less sweet than a lot of standard tastes you might find in various other bakeries or cake shops), so my preferences are informed by that context. Some favorites: Chocolate almond croissant "French flan" - kind of hard to describe but it's kind of like a fatty custard pie, really good and highly recommend this Cookies - especially the peanut butter chip one Macarons Apricot tart and pear almond tart - really subtle flavors to the latter and doesn't have that artificial almond taste Bread! Definitely a good staple spot to visit several times a year/month/week (day?) read more

Overal not very happy with my visit here today. To start you order and seat yourself, which is totally fine but, the downside is the few employees that work here don't seem to clean tables so you are running around trying to interrupt their conversation behind the front counter to get them to clean. Coffee was very average and would have rather spent $5 at the drive thru Starbucks next door. My fiancé and I ordered the egg and bacon sandwich which was just a huge chunk of egg with non existent bacon and arugula ... just hiding in the egg somewhere. Side potatoes were extremely oily. The side salad was just a slab of lettuce. No effort was put into the food preparation or presentation. Bread wasn't warm on the sandwich. Overall you are better off going to trader joe and making you own breakfast. If you want a quick bite then it's fine but expect low quality for a high price read more

I can't believe I've been in OC for two years and just now visited Pandor! From the outside it's easy to miss but the indoor cafe is ridiculously cute. Though it was pretty busy for Sunday brunch our food came out relatively fast and was delicious! read more
