Valerie S: Incredible variety of delicious pastries and desserts! Can't go wrong with anything. Had the meringue and it was amazing- definitely will go again and try more.
Matt Benton: Vanilla meringues have a delicious almondy taste to them. It's seems like there's too many things to have them all. Bonus for gluten-free people, they have a few cheesecakes without the crust.
Dasha Kozhemyakina: Perfect cannoli and frutamisu (or smth like that), all pastries looks sooooo gooood. Very nice place. The only con is that coffee here is not that perfect (it's a tiny con). The place is awesome

Holly Chen: Start with Crispy Poached Eggs w/ Caviar & Vodka Cream, then Butter Poached Lobster w/ ravioli, end with Chocolate & Meringue. Sip the Raspberry-Lychee martini, say life is beautiful.
Susan J Campbell: The fig salad was delicious. The crusted ahi tuna ordered double with a side of broccoli was plenty for dinner, absolutely delicious and not spicy (yay!)

honeywhatscooking.com: Beautiful restaurant. Romantic and charming. Date spot. Spinach Ravioli was amazing. Tiramisu was delicious. The Truffle Mushroom dish was good but needed a bit more salt.
Tim Vetter: Try the restaurant where Lady Gaga, just barely pre-fame, worked as a waitress. (The staff famously made her cry)
Rewan Parti: Sit in the back garden, order the calamari with mint leaves and cauliflower appetizer. Along with spinach and buffalo cheese ravioli! Do try the tiramisu.
