I'd heard such good reports about this place that I had to give it a try, and I'm glad I did. I went early on a Saturday morning when the traffic was light and the restaurant was empty--perfect. I had an Almond Croissant and it was wonderful--flaky and light and a little sweet and I could have eaten four of them. The coffee was a little strong for my taste, but it was nice to be able to have available some chocolate and cinnamon to sprinkle into it and with some cream it was almost like a mocha latte. I also tried a bite of the walnut pie and it was as good as many of the reviews say it is.
