Food

The menu consists of a variety of French inspired specialties such as breakfast crepes, dessert crepes, Quiche, specialty salads, French toast varieties, and more.

I was excited to order the Quiche du Jour, unfortunately, they were already sold out by the time we arrived in the late afternoon. I decided to go with a salad and dessert crepe; an odd pairing, yet both very delicious!

I absolutely loved both my Triangle salad (dark greens, dried cranberries, walnuts, and a raspberry vinaigrette) and dark chocolate crepe. I don't have much of a sweet tooth, however, I do love my dark chocolate! This crepe was absolutely delicious!

I would like to plan a return visit for a specialty coffee and crepe, or perhaps a glass of wine.

Mike enjoyed his buckwheat breakfast crepe (scrambled eggs and tomatoes). I tried a few bites myself and was impressed as well. Even though the portions were on the smaller side, we both thoroughly enjoyed lunch.

This is a great Cleveland brunch choice for vegetarians and anyone needing gluten-free fare. Great vegetarian entree selections include Shakshuka, Sweet Potato Hash, French Toast, Ratatouille Crêpe, and a Peanut Butter Banana Crepe. Veggie and gluten-free menu items are conveniently marked.

Service

Service was pleasant. Our waiter kindly assisted us with some of the French terms on the menu. Most of the menu is in French - how authentic is that!? Luckily, I have taken French courses, so I could figure out the majority of the menu myself. However, our waiter was there to assist us with any of the unknown items.

Atmosphere

Walking through the doors, I felt like I was stepping into a true Parisian cafe. The table setup, artwork, menu, and service all felt authentic. I really enjoyed the cozy, quiet atmosphere. In fact, had we more time in Cleveland, we would have planned a return visit for another French treat!
