This is such a lovely discovery amidst the already bustling and colorful Espanola Way... although here, the pace seems to calm, and the service is sincere and relaxed. The food is... French. And magnifique. My favorite foie gras in the area. A more delightful garden table could not be found. Thank you to the fine servers and chefs who smile warmly and offer beautiful service in this special venue.
A slice of Paris in Miami! We had the crepes the first day and came back for the sandwich and salad. the food was out of this world and the staff is so nice :) 10/10 would recommend.
I enjoyed to have breakfast at this place. I loved French style and soup was out of this world. I would definitely recommend homemade foie gras and French onion . Deserts are tasteful and very unique. I loved the rustic look of this cafe. I enjoyed reading the menu with the history of this place and some information about dishes served. I have to say thank to a very pleasant waitress who spoke French and added character to the whole experience.Great experience. I would come back without a doubt.
Truly French crepes experience! Wonderful joint on Espanola way in south beach Miami!
One of my few favorite spots in Miami Beach! Super cozy atmosphere, huge menu and crepes selection. Escargot for a very good price.
It was my final comfort while traveling in Miami. It has a special sense of serenity and slow pace, which is rather rare from the general Miami atmosphere.
The staff are lay back and cool. Food was delicious and clean. Not heavy and not feeling guilty on the ingredients. The music playlist is smooth and relaxing. The drinks are also delightful and this will be my chic spot. I love how everything it antique and sustainable. Even the menu has character as a Christian Dior newspaper. Love everthing.
