“ Went for my birthday, Chris was amazing! Food was excellent, as was the pastry treat. Will definitely be back! Thanks to Chris for making it a memorable experience! ”
“ Cutest little place!! As a gluten free girly I have tried multiple macarons through the years! Nothing compares to the giant raspberries and cream filled one here! (Can’t remember the actual name! 10/10 would recommend ”
“ Always have a wonderful experience when we go here. Food is always fantastic, and service matches. The chefs here are imaginative and have a real flair for taking a staple like french onion soup and finding a way to reinvent the wheel. The only reason the atmosphere is receiving 4 stars is because they do need to better designate a space for larger parties. On our most recent visit, we were there trying to have an intimate dinner, and toward the end, it got extremely loud... like could not even hear each other speak loud. They had sat a large, very loud party near us, which made the experience no longer enjoyable. I am not faulting them for the volume of this party. I'm just not sure if they can find a better way to try and maintain intimate dinner seating and have an area for a noisier crowd. Desserts are always a delight here as well. A must try if you are ever in the area. ”
“ After enjoying dinner in downtown Tosa, we stopped by to satisfy our sweet tooth with some treats. A cozy little spot to get a good meal or some desserts. The display case was filled with an array of beautifully crafted pastries, all looking almost too good to eat. We decided to go with a selection of macarons, which came in a variety of flavors, including vanilla, hazelnut, pistachio, chocolate, and raspberry, along with a few surprise flavors that weren’t listed on the menu. Each one had a crisp shell with a soft, flavorful filling. We couldn’t resist and started snacking on them as soon as we got to the car. It was the perfect little indulgence to end the evening, and we’ll definitely be back to try more! I haven’t been in awhile to try their food but as we were picking out our desserts, the food going to the tables looked great! ”
“ Love the atmosphere but the space is small so you have hear every tables conversation. Food was great maybe the slightest bit too salty, but still amazing. I enjoyed the hanger steak and gnocchi. ”
“ The gnocchi aux fromages was so incredible, the cheese was so nice and melted, and the gnocchi itself literally melted in my mouth. The green beans with shallots were also amazing, although I did wish I had a bit of salt to add to them (there are no salt or pepper shakers on the tables). The cheesecake was good! ”
“ Best coffee drink with liquor I’ve ever had. Paired perfectly with our pastries. I really enjoyed dining here for dinner service in the past too despite hiccups with service, the staff is apologetic when it counts and strive to improve. ”
“ Wow! So worth the price and experience. Came here for my birthday celebration with friends, and it was a great first time experience. Our server was so nice, friendly and explained items on the menu for us clearly. The food was super delicious, seasoned nicely and tasted fresh. The dessert was the highlight. I tried a lemon tart and it was perfectly balanced with the sourness and sweetness. Definitely would recommend this place. ”
