I had asked for the Chocolate Mouse Ganache pastry (to-go) The lady who was packing it realized that some part of the Chocolate covering on the pastry was nicked, so she was hesitating to give it to me. So, she asked her supervisor(via eye contact) and the supervisor just suggested she pack the damaged pastry. Even though I had noticed it, I didn't want to bring it up with them. The lady was trying to do the right thing for the customer, but the supervisor suggested to pass on the damaged product to the customer. Horrible behavior by the supervisor! Won't be returning to put up with such attitude!

Great Restaurant, wonderful staff, it's just crowded every time I go. There are tables outside, but they're usually taken too.

I'm a coffee fanatic and the cappuccino they made was great certainly a notch above Starbucks cappucinos. It has a nice atmosphere, but at lunch time it gets very crowded and you have to squeeze in. Anyway, I think it's a great place. Recommended
