Review Summary

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.

Finding a table here can be challenging, but the patisserie & drinks are worth it. I particularly enjoy the matcha cake & Japanese cheesecake here.

Little spot only a few steps from Place-des-arts metro station. Seems quite busy most of the time. Staff is courteous. Cakes & fatcarons (macarons) are great if you like Asian-inspired flavours (ube, matcha, etc.) & not too sweet. Portions per slice are quite generous & well worth the price. Full-sized cakes are available for order on their website.

Best matcha latte I've had in the city. I tried the white chocolate one, it was not sweet at all. Just a nice hint of mellowness from the white chocolate. On the very first sip, I knew my drink was made by somebody who understands how to work with matcha. I will definitely return to try other things!

Cute desserts & cute ambiance!

Asian style cafeteria with interesting drinks & desserts. You'll definitely have trouble picking what to get!

Good work place during the week, since on the weekends no laptops are allowed. It is quite small so you might not find a table.
It can feel a bit cramped, but it's good enough for a few hours.

Strongly recommend the macarons, strawberry cream cake & the ube basque cheesecake!
(Do not recommend black sesame latte, it's just thick & tastes like plain vanilla).

I don't have a sweet tooth & was recommended this place as their desserts aren't too sweet & you know what they say: "Not too sweet" is the best Asian compliment for desserts! My partner was a big fan of the matcha strawberry shortcake. It was light, not too sweet, the strawberries were fresh & the sponge cake wasn't doused in syrup!
