| - I went with my friend at 4:30 on a Sunday afternoon. It wasn't too busy and there were plenty of open tables, but we were waiting behind another couple, who left before the waitress noticed them because they were actually being ignored by the staff! I stepped into the further into restaurant and was seated a few moments later.
After looking at the menu, I decided on the crepe Florentine (with swiss cheese, tomato, spinach, and egg) and my friend went for Annie's Chicken Melt (swiss, chicken, tomatoes, sweet onion sauce). The Florentine crepe was so-so: a lot of spinach and tomato, adequate cheese (which ended up congealing into a rubbery consistency), and only a slight hint of egg. Annie's Chicken Melt was a bit better--the sweet onion sauce was delicious--but there was literally only one slice of tomato and the chicken was dry.
Our waitress was one of least attentive waitresses I have ever had. She hung around a table near us and held a fairly long conversation with the couple seated there while we waited for her to pick up our empty plates. After about 10 or so minutes, another waitress eventually came along. The next time our waitress came by, I ordered a nutella latte (delicious, with a very subtle chocolate flavor) and my friend ordered the nutella hot chocolate (also delicious, and not too chocolatey).
Overall, I think the staff here are not that friendly, and we did not feel very welcomed or valued. Needless to say, we didn't leave a hefty tip. The food was all right, but I would not come here again for a meal, it's much better for desserts. I wish I had gotten a sweet nutella banana crepe, or perhaps the sugar lemon, instead as I was still hungry upon leaving the restaurant. The crepes themselves are not huge, but if you want a small breakfast or lunch, they're a great size (I was STARVING when we arrived). What you see on the menu is what you get: there are no sides or extra flavorings in the crepes, which results in rather bland and uninteresting food. You can order soups, salads, and sandwiches, however.
