Overall, reviews describe Café Rì Yuè as a tiny, very cute and cozy spot with a charming vibe that can feel crowded and loud on busy days, making seating a common challenge but rewarding when a table opens. The menu earns praise for creative drinks and desserts, especially matcha and hojicha lattes, yuzu cheesecake, ube basque cheesecake, tiramisu, and oversized macarons, with some items such as the shortcake or the white chocolate latte receiving mixed notes. Prices are often mentioned as a bit high for the portion size, and a few guests report slow service or limited seating, though staff are repeatedly described as friendly, attentive, and accommodating. Location near Place des Arts adds convenience, and visitors frequently recommend ordering a slice of cake to go or bringing friends to enjoy the colorful pastries and decorative, light filled space.
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?😂

I really liked the cakes & drinks. Everything is so pretty & nothing is too sweet & I'm sure it appeals to a lot of people! (I could've had the cakes a little sweeter though personally 😋) The staff was helpful & friendly. My only real complaint is that it felt quite crowded & so squeezed - but it's a small, popular cafe so I guess no one can do anything about that.
Café moins sympa depuis la rentrée : les parts sont plus petites ... La carte a changé pour du banal. Ou est passée la tisane au juzhu qui avait tant de succès?
