On est venu manger un desserts & boire un chocolat chaud, les jeunes filles au comptoir sont très gentilles & serviable. Nous avons aimé nos desserts & l'ambiance.
The place was so clean. The staff were very kind & generous, & the desserts tasted amazing. I had the crepe with knefe on the inside. I would get extra pistachio sauce with it next time because it was so good. I feel like I found a hidden gem by mistake! Cannot wait to go there again!
Si vous cherchez des desserts extrêmement riches & goûteux, ceci est l'endroit où aller! Les items que nous avons pris étaient délicieux & léger! Vous ne ressortirez pas ballonner avec les sentiments de lourdeur à l'estomac.
Yuyang nous a accompagné dans nos choix & a offert un service incroyable! Sa bonne humeur était contagieuse!
Nous avons déjà hâte d'y retourner!

We were visiting from Toronto & this place was next-door, the desserts here are unbelievable!! Haya & her team were beyond friendly & offered our group some items to share. Will definitely be back for more I highly recommend the pistachio treats!!
Love this cafe! Great little dessert & ice cream options. I had a pistachio cheesecake, pistachio Baklava split inside with baklava ice cream & pistachio ice cream. Also with a pistachio ice latte. Everything was made internally & was delicious! My new favourite place!
GET THESE! Yummy! Amazing workers & so well informed on the menu! We got the lemon fruit pastry too & it was delicious. All made in house too! Thank you to the kind staff who made our dessert stop AMAZING!

Si je pouvais vous mettre 0, ce serait amplement mérité. Ce sont les pires desserts que j'aie jamais goûtés.
Le trompe-l'oeil fraise : à l'intérieur, un simple morceau de fraise congelée, même pas fraîche, sans aucun confit, gel ou quoi que ce soit. Le reste, ce sont juste des chantilly avec une goutte de vanille, recouvertes de velours 😂 Sérieusement ? Vous vendez ça 15 $ ?
Le dessert au arachide : à l'intérieur, uniquement une pâte d'arachide bas de gamme du supermarché voisin, avec des morceaux de fruits secs détrempés & mous. Même chose pour le'ganache', si tant est que ce soit réellement une ganache.
I am willing to pay good money for good desserts but $33.34 (no tip) for these 2 desserts was a bit excessive. The strawberry was better than the mango but not good enough. Although the presentation was nice the flavours are just not there… I think the place has potential but service needs to improve as well as the cleanliness of the place & I don't understand the mannequin in the window…
Tried this place & honestly loved it. The desserts tasted fresh & weren't overly sweet, which I really appreciated. Everything looked so good it was hard to choose. The vibe was cozy, & the staff were super kind. Definitely a spot I'd come back to.
Overall, fruit-shaped desserts are soft & creamy on the inside, with less sugar & a smoother texture. Lemon-shaped desserts, on the other hand, are slightly harder inside. Perhaps this is because they stay longer in the fridge & are very cold, making them a bit difficult to chew.
