Reviews describe Mamie Clafoutis as a cozy, welcoming spot with a broad range of pastries, breads and solid coffee that makes it a nice place to linger. The lemon tart and other pastries are frequently praised, with items like madeleines and pistachio pavés highlighted as delights, while some croissants and certain almond pastries are noted as not as fresh or as generous as expected. Pricing is a common point of contention, with several reviews calling some sandwiches and pastries expensive for the portion size and overall value. There are mixed reports on quality from visit to visit, including disappointing galette des rois with bitter almond cream and tough pastry versus moments of fluffy, flaky pastry and satisfying breads. The atmosphere and staff are repeatedly described as friendly and efficient, while seating can be limited and some customers observe others occupying space without ordering. Overall, Mamie Clafoutis is seen as a reliable place for tasty treats and a pleasant cafe experience, though price sensitivity and occasional inconsistencies temper the impression.View restaurant profile

Reviews describe Sae Low as a place with inventive, delicious dishes, a dynamic team, friendly service, and a convivial atmosphere, with guests praising bold Southeast Asian flavors, a strong wine and cocktail list, and a terrace that’s great in summer. A brief January breakfast window was deemed totally delectable, including a refreshing lemonade and a shooter, and many look forward to returning, finding Sae Low worth the detour and a place to discover something new on every visit. Lunch offerings include braised beef ramen which some felt needed more seasoning, while the spicy noodles and baos were enjoyed, and there is clear interest in trying the regular dinner menu. Prices are described as quite expensive by some, yet the overall quality earns high marks, with standout dishes like beef tartare, a sauté, and a cheesecake dessert cited. The chef is commended for accommodating dietary restrictions, and the cafe by day is noted for creative twists on drinks like latte or matcha. A few comments warn that bland food and small portions may frustrate certain diners, and a ramen visit did not hit the spot, but the consensus remains that Sae Low delivers exciting flavors, thoughtful options, and a desire to return.View restaurant profile
