Andrew was an amazing server! The food was delicious. I had the fillet mignon Benedict & the dulce de letche croissant. Everything was great, I would recommend it!

Je veux partager mon agréable expérience au sein du duc de Lorraine. Les gâteaux sont frais & délicieux, le personnel est également très accueillant & attentif. J'étais bien servi par madame Sara Asma. Je recommande vivement cette pour tout les amateurs de pâtisserie française.
Super belle ambiance! Tout est excellent. FORTEMENT recommandé pour un brunch entre amis. Mention spéciale à Jonathan qui a été très agréable & attentionné. Un gros merci de la part de chemise bleue!
My lady took me & made me a Surprise on this wonderful place The experience was very great with a beautiful atmosphere in the outdoor sitting We tried a chicken sandwich with cheese, worth a try. & we also took the cocktail that is in the picture. I highly recommend it.
Superbe expérience! La terrasse est absolument magnifique & le décors est vraiment bien pensé. Nous avons eu la chance de goûter un peu de tout afin d'explorer le menu & les nouveautés. C'est absolument une expérience unique! Une mention à notre serveur, Mo, pour son super travail & ses conseils. Nous recommandons d'essayer cette pâtisserie lors des célébrations afin d'avoir une belle ambiance.

Rafaad est un des meilleurs serveurs que j'ai jamais eu. Le service est EXCELLENT. La nourriture était délicieuse & complexe. Je recommande fortement la napolitaine ainsi que le classique. La musique français est également très apprécié.
Couldn't try what I wanted, Got the Fraisier it was pretty but flavor wise underwhelming. BUT, I tried some of my friends orders (crème brûlée, cheesecake) & it was absolutely delicious, fresh. Honestly, I'll come back for sure to try more of the menu's, thank you for reaching out! I recommend! 5/5 :)) customer service is amazing!
Always love going here. The service is amazing (thank you, Andréa! 😊). The food is top notch! Cannot recommend this place enough! If you love great pastries, this is the place for you!
Brunch sans saveur, présentation quelconque. Placement à côté de la porte avec courant d'air froid, malgré une réservation. 36$ pour une omelette sans goût, dont les oignons ne sont pas cuits, assortie d'une tranche de brioche à peine grillée, trois demies pommes de terre non assaisonnées & un bol de fruit frais sans café ni jus de fruit....c'est hors de prix. Le service était incomplet : prise de commande très lente, manteaux mis au vestiaire, que nous avons décidé de récupérer par nous même car aucun retour du serveur. Même constat pour les 3 personnes présentes avec moi. Je ne renouvellerai pas l'expérience & ne recommande pas l'établissement.
Superbe expérience au duc de lorraine, avec charlie comme serveur il était extraordinaire. Je recommande à tout le monde de venir. 👍🏾 Très bon service! ☺️
Fantastic food but a little pricey. I came with my wife for a fancy (weekend-before-Valentine's-Day) dinner & we were well impressed. I believe the octopus appetizer is one of the best I've ever had. Amazing sauce with veggies & a super tender, fairly large (not chewy) octopus tentacle. The escargots appetizer was great, but had maybe a little too much pesto that overpowered the delicate flavour of the snails (a lot of pesto was left behind). For the main course we had the lamb & lobster risotto. The lamb was really good but I wasn't too impressed with the side of beans & potato...the potato specifically, just seemed like really large fries. I don't usually associate fries with fancy restaurants. The lobster risotto on the other hand was phenomenal. Tender lobster, perfect rice & an amazing sauce. For dessert my wife had a lemon tart (she loved it) & I had the cheese cake (delicious). I would definitely recommend this place for a special occasion, but for a regular dinner out, a bit pricey. We did have a cocktail & glass of wine each, combined with 2 appetizers, 2 main dishes, 2 desserts & a double espresso, our total with tax & tip was $360. Still worth the experience & I'd definitely come again...for a special occasion! :) ...definitely try the octopus if you like octopus...it's amazing.

Excellent choice of fine bakery. I haven't tried their dinner menu, so I can't comment on that. But the pastry items were delicious to say the least. Highly recommend. Their courteous staff & ambience makes it more delicious.
I came here with my friend & I enjoyed every part of our evening. The food, desserts & service went above my expectations (highly recommend the onion soup, seafood quiche & lattes). Special thank you to Titouan & his colleagues for making us feel at home :) We were indecisive on certain menu items & changed our minds on a decision we already made. Titouan was patient with us & offered great personalised menu recommendations. I highly recommend visiting this restaurant for the amazing food & service !
