We got lucky and didn’t have to wait more than about half an hour to get our order, but as a tourist, I wouldn’t have wanted to spend much longer waiting in line instead of exploring the city! The September menu’s miso mushroom croquiche was incredible I think about her all the time.

I wasn't sure really if the line would still be long but on a Friday, I got in line at 8:20 and was down at the block. Waited in line until they opened a little after 9. I didn't get in until 9:30ish. Needless to say, I was a tad late for work. Not sure why I waited since there wasn't anything in particular that caught my eye. But I wanted to say I tried it. I wish I was visiting last month since I like their menu more. It is nice they change it every month. Very cute decor inside. Not overly friendly, I thought it was just ok. I got the Pistachio Cardamom Croissant, the seasonal one with tomato-Tomato & Proscuitto bear claw, and double chocolate espresso chip cookie. Unfortunately though I didn't get to try them until later that day. So I would recommend you try them as soon as you get them. I really liked the pistachio croissant, flaky and great cream! The cookie was also soft and tasty. As for the savory one, I'll have to get back to you. I didn't quite like it but I'm going to try heating it up. :) I wish I had more people with me to try more items.

We waited in line for about 40 min and while waiting someone in a car shouted not worth it but we stayed and I have to say it was SO WORTH IT!! Pay no mind to the line if you’re visiting you need to try it!!
