Overall, OFauria is viewed as a high end French patisserie with beautifully crafted pastries, impressive trompe l'oeil desserts, and strong coffee and croissants that many describe as top notch. The atmosphere and presentation are frequently noted as elegant and visually stunning, making it a popular spot for a refined dessert experience. Many reviews praise the quality and freshness of the pastries and the skillful execution that elevates traditional French baking. At the same time, price is a common point of discussion with several readers calling it expensive and not always offering value for money. Some experiences mention slower or uneven service and occasional gaps in hospitality, especially during busy times, and a few guests raise concerns about cleanliness in the dining area. A minority report disappointments with specific items or day-to-day consistency, but the consensus leans toward admiring the artistry and the craft while recognizing room for improvement in service and upkeep.
Belle présentation mais la qualité ne suit pas. Les desserts sont très jolis visuellement, mais beaucoup trop chargés en colorants & crème, ce qui les rend difficiles à digérer. Pour le prix, je m'attendais à quelque chose de beaucoup plus équilibré & agréable. Dommage, l'idée est bonne mais l'exécution laisse vraiment à désirer.
1ère expérience ce matin. On a prit plusieurs desserts pour un dîner d'amis. Tous les desserts étaient incroyables ! Gros coup de coeur pour la crème de Pistache & le mille-feuille 🥰🥰

One of the best bakeries. Sitting there gives positive energy. I tried the cappuccino & the eclair dessert. It was the best ever. The service was excellent & the staff were respectful. At the same time, the prices were relatively high.
The quality of the trompe oeils are impecable. A literal piece of art. I loved how all of them had a great balance of sweet, tart & sour. I loved the different textures too.
My personal favorite was the lemon one, it's small, soft & sour. My partner enjoyed the cocoa one, because it had a rich chocolate taste. The mango one was refreshing & I loved the fresh mango cubes inside. The pear looked so realistic & the flavour is subtle, yet earthy.
We got coffee to go with our cakes & they were great too !
Overall, we loved the desserts & we will be coming back !
Bonne patisserie Francaise ! À commencer par le service, le café, les viennoiseries & la patisserie. Ma dernière découverte fût le Croustillant! Très bon dessert pour les amateurs de chocolat, un mélange parfait de croustillant & de mousse.
Les pâtisseries n'avaient rien d'extraordinaire comparativement a leur prix 😅
J'ai trouvé la tarte au citron trop acide, gâchant l'équilibre des saveurs & le dessert au chocolat n'avait rien de spécial. Nous n'y retournerons pas.

Ofauria is my go to place for all my dessert. I am a big fan of Chef Faure & have been visiting his previous pastery shop in the old port.
Some people can say it's pricey but you pay for good product & delicious authentic flavours.
The most expensive bakery in Quebec. The experience was good & the place was nice too, the service was good.
Taste was good similar to other competitors in the market. I am giving 3 stars because too expensive & customer deserve to see the price tag on all items. I was shocked when I got the bill. I over heard that the manago dessert was $18 per person !!!
I am glad I tried it, but won't come again.
Les desserts sont excellentes. J'ai commandé un gâteau en ligne & il était prêt à temps & super frais. Le charlotte au Multifruits était délicieux, pas trop sucré & pas très lourd.

Yummy desserts, good service & nice place. Those who keep nagging about prices .. you can always go to Tim Hortons. Everything comes with a price. We hope you open longer hours :)
Time Police! Be careful not to stay there over two hours while enjoying your coffee & dessert because a worker will come asking you numerous times if you would like to have something else. After the third or fourth time I asked her if she wanted us to leave & she said yes. She explained in a rude way that since it's the weekend, they usually don't accept people to stay more than two hours. It was in the afternoon, & there were empty seats! The desserts are excellent but the chef shouldn't hire people like that.
J'ai commandé en ligne mardi dernier le 26 mars un Oeuf de Pâques rouge pour ramassage le samedi 30 mars. Lorsque j'arrive sur place, on m'avise qu'il n'en reste plus de la couleur rouge. Je suppose qu'un des employés en a donné à quelqu'un d'autre ? Je comprends que c'était un weekend chargé, mais j'étais vrmt déçue de me faire dire sur place un produit pour lequel j'ai payé à l'avance, qu'il n'en restait plus dans la couleur commandé. Autrement j'avais commandé un autre plateau de desserts & j'ai rien à dire côté goût & présentation.
