Café Rì Yuè comes across as a small, cozy and visually charming cafe near Place des Arts, beloved for inventive drinks and beautiful pastries that range from matcha and hojicha lattes to yuzu and ube cheesecakes, macarons, and other delicate desserts, with many reviews highlighting the quality and presentation. The vibe is intimate and welcoming, with plenty of natural light and cute decor, but seating can be limited and at times the space feels crowded, sometimes requiring customers to share tables. The staff are frequently praised for friendliness and attentiveness, though a few notes mention variable service and occasional delays or mix ups. Prices are sometimes described as a bit high for the portions, though the menu of full cakes is noted as convenient for celebrations. The cafe is repeatedly recommended for a quick coffee break or to meet a friend, and fans celebrate its desserts as not too sweet and beautifully crafted, with standout items like the matcha strawberry cake, yuzu cheesecake, and white chocolate matcha drinks. Overall, Café Rì Yuè appears to deliver a consistently cute and tasty experience for dessert lovers and matcha fans, even as space limitations and occasional service quirks keep it from being ideal for larger groups or longer study sessions.
J'ai adoré ce café ! L'ambiance est cosy, les boissons & gâteaux sont délicieux (surtout les fatcarons !!), & les serveurs adorables. Merci encore ! Je reviendrai avec plaisir ☺️
Une ambiance cosy & sympathique dans un petit café à Place des arts ! Les gâteaux & cafés sont validés ! (Première fois que je goûtais un shortcake au taro ☺️). Sinon, les serveurs & serveuses sont agréables & souriants ! Les tables ne sont pas grandes pour travailler mais ça peut se faire !
The lady serving us was super kind, good energy, & welcoming & not over done or fake. The decoration was cute & feminine but not overwhelming. The corner spot to sit was so perfect to wind down & share food with a girlfriend & chat. 100% will come back for the Hojicha tiramisu. It was creamy, perfectly sweet & the flavor combination with the tea was amazing, light & airy but had a certain depth that had your tongue begging for more. We preferred it to the coffee tiramisu because we are more fans of tea than coffee but your average coffee lover would love the classic tiramisu. Can't wait to come back & try more desserts. Would recommend for a girl catch up meet up or a cute date with your bf or gf ;)

Très belle découverte ! Le iced matcha white chocolate latte étais délicieux & les macarons d'halloween étaient adorables. Personnel sympa & rapide. En revanche, l'espace du café est assez petit donc le peu de tables qu'il y a sont vite prises, il y a quelques tables en terrasse pour la belle saison.
I tried matcha for the first tome ever there & I LOVED it 🥰😍 I loved their little cute pastries too Cozy little coffee shop with lovely atmosphere & friendly staff I highly recommend it
I have order cakes from RiYue since 4 years ago & have always love their desserts as they're very visually appealing & suit my level of sweetness. My favorites are the Ube cheesecake, the Hojicha tiramisu & the Earl grey/Tieguanyin chiffon cake. I hope that RiYue will continue to develop more Asian flavours for their whole cake!
J'ai commandé un gâteau 6 inch au taro pour mon anniversaire & il était à tombé. Pas trop sucré, bien léger & qui sort des saveurs ordinaires, franchement à coup sur que je recommanderai un gâteau pour mes évènements avec eux (en plus la communication est super avec eux).
The coffee & desserts are roughly of average quality. The staff all have their hair down, which makes me wonder if this meets hygiene standards in the food industry. & their attitude was like very so so...The interior decoration & design lack aesthetic appeal. The reviews are overrated ...disappointed
Étant une adepte des salons de thé & café celui là est mon préféré leur macaron sont un délice surtout celui de cheesecake au fraises & celui au goût de crème brûlée c'est mon petit coin préféré j'approuve ❤️
I had chai latte & strawberry matcha cake. Both were decent. Strawberry matcha cake was moist & not too sweet, which was a plus for me. The staff were really kind as well. It was pretty packed as it's not spacious, but for some reason I felt relaxed☺️ highly recommend!
Love this cafe!! Honestly you make your own experience. If you're gonna go there demanding stuff & with an attitude.. you get what you give. Most negative reviews I see here are for people who need to work on themselves & be patient. Running a business nor working in customer service ain't easy. If it's about the food then that can be understandable, anyways I had a great time myself🙂 how about you?😂
