Review Summary

Reviews describe Patisserie Rhubarbe as a superb and inventive patisserie with high quality products and refined execution. The mille-feuille and the lemon tart are repeatedly praised, and chocolate, raspberry and yogurt creations are noted as light yet intense and balanced. The shop is seen as both a delightful discovery and a must try, with lines forming from opening hours and no indoor seating.

Some feedback acknowledges changes over time, with fewer seating options and a perceived dip in offer or consistency for some patrons, though others still regard it as among the best patisseries in the area. Overall, impressions range from outstanding and top tier to balanced views, but the name remains associated with standout pastries and distinctive box design.View restaurant profile

Vimont

Review Summary

Boustan reviews highlight fresh ingredients, generous portions, a clean, modern setting, and consistently fast, friendly service that makes visits welcoming, with the vegan kebab and shawarma praised for tenderness and flavor and the garlic sauce and pita repeatedly a hit.

Overall the sentiment is strongly positive about taste and care in preparation, with occasional flaws noted but not overshadowing the appeal of Boustan.View restaurant profile
