Midtown Crêperie Café - Stockton

I hired Melissa owner) to cater my Daughter 's baby shower at Calivirgin in Lodi. This was in February of this year '24). The positive is she was very engaging and attentive, however in the midst of everything there were venue and product pricing changes and I didn 't appreciate the back and forth confusion. The day of the shower, there were a lot of people and she was a one man show , preparing and serving. There should 've been another person there with her. In the end, I had a credit with her, which I never received. Melissa is a nice person but because of the pricing change, miscommunication and especially not receiving my credit refund, unfortunately I cannot give her a fair rating.

I used to come to this place whenever I would visit Stockton. It 's been several years and I was surprised to find that there was a new creperie in the spot that this one used to be in, and this business was tucked into a bar, marked with signs.. no indication on the building that the place even still existed which was confusing. We were sat down and there were no other patrons. I ordered coffee, which was surprisingly good. To our dismay, many of the menu items were unavailable no romaine lettuce for Caesar salad, they didn 't have beignets, and they didn 't have fries.... But they had potatoes? The salad, fried potatoes (not fries), and coffee were fine, they tasted good. They served us (what they could with all the missing ingredients) in a timely manner and the food was tasty and the server was kind and polite. The situation though is very confusing and the vibe does not feel like a creperie like the old location did. If you are familiar with the old Midtown Creperie, this is nothing like that. It felt like the final dying gasp of a business that once was.... But the food was fine. Though, my friend ordered a savory crepe and asked specifically for no asparagus. And there was asparagus. A lot of it. I wouldn 't recommend coming here if you are expecting to have a crepe, French esque experience and some mimosas like when this business was in the old location with the cute painted alleyway... it 's just not the same. This is an evening spot and feels out of place and awkward.

To my surprise, it was located at a different spot than I previously thought. It's moved to a Bar spot, Ibiza. It's definitely a bar vibe, with a few tables and chairs for dining. I decided to order the crêpe Capito with bacon, egg, and potatoes. It's basically a crêpe breakfast burrito. I had a choice of sauce and they recommended the mushroom sauce which was delicious. If I can critique it, I will say the potatoes are a bit too big for this burrito but I'd order this again! The French toast was fluffy and flavorful. I recommend that as well. The eggs, potato and bacon plate was a good portion. The bacon was delicious with the brown sugar peppery flavor. I had to order the hazelnut crêpe to try and the powdered beignets. The beignets were so fluffy and good. The chocolate dip on the side was too rich for me. We really enjoy the crêpe. I expected more hazelnut filling inside but it was a Belgian style which I'm assuming it's different than what I had expected but I enjoyed it. It had a cinnamon taste to it. The service was good. I feel like it took a while to get the food prepared but I will say the food made up for it.

We walked by like 4 times until I had to ask where it was. It's now inside of Ibiza. There should be a clear sign stating where it's at. The owner served us and she was very nice and inviting. We ordered crepes, mimosas, and beignets to go. The service and taste of the food were wonderful! I don't like how the atmosphere changed though. Ibiza is a lounge/club atmosphere, so it doesn't give the French feel that it used to. The food is more upscale less food, more esthetically pleasing). My bill was very high : Unfortunately, I was not happy with the beignets. They were very rubbery and didn't taste the same. This also could have been because I ate them much later.

Here's a revised It's been a while since my last visit, and they have moved to a new location. Unfortunately, the service has taken a nosedive. Our waiter seemed completely lost, and the atmosphere was terrible. We were seated in the closed bar area, which was far from enjoyable. This place used to have a fun vibe, but that's no longer the case. It's disappointing to see such a decline, especially for a place once featured on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. This will be our last visit. So, onto the food. The beignet and gravy were good and just as I remembered. However, my wife was put off by the smell of the bar, so she only ordered eggs. Unfortunately, her eggs had eggshells in them. While the food quality remains the same, the ambiance at this new location negatively impacts the dining experience. We used to recommend this place to our friends. In fact, just last week, we told someone they had to try it because of the great food and its feature on DD&D. But while we were there, my wife texted them to say not to bother coming.
