Lissette A: The "Cereal Milk" ice cream is awesome! But you have to get the "crunchy corn flakes" topping. Taste just like a bowl of cereal!!! :)
Mike Chau: Try the Oatmeal Creme Pie Soft Serve - Very good, maybe the best one in the current rotation of flavors
Megan Johnson: Cereal milk ice cream - nailed it! Love the blueberry & cream cookie, and the Yuzu Cherryrita (with tequila). It's sweet! Also of note - they have Mexican Cokes here!

Ben Stern: Just fantastic gelato, as good as the best in Italy
Tristan Durand: Gianduja (chocolate hazelnut) and nocciola (hazelnut) gelato were very tasty and not too sweet. Real Italian taste, not overly sweet American ice cream. The portions are big, I recommend the small cup
AmateurConcierge: Lovely texture on this gelato. Interesting flavors that rotate regularly. The mini cone and perfect whipped cream are a nice touch

Cristina F-M: seating is cramped but the hazelnut rosemary choc chip cookie is worth it. and the pain au chocolat is awesome, first one I've seen where the chocolate was still gooey.
Corinna P: You can't go wrong with the apple cider flowers, the herbal (usually rosemary) salted chocolate chip cookies, or any of their various brioches.
Renee Bradbeer: Delicious iced coffee and the softest coconut macaroons I have ever had!

Evan Bartlett: Solid brunch, donuts where a great appetizer. Check out the rose selection
Fodor's Travel: Save room for desserts: the pastry chef likes to cut loose, drizzling ice cream with olive oil or sprinkling marcona almonds on a lemon ice cream tart. Read more.
Ridhiman Reddy: Truffle egg toast and the flour less chocolate cake are amazing. Everything else we ate was really good too. Perfect for the price. Really good for dates

IrmaZandl ZandlSlant: Pastas are fantastic as is the soft serve ice cream. Great time list, superb service and absolutely gorgeous space
Ashley Delose: Everything was delicious! Wood oven flavor...my favorites: whole artichoke, squid, and broccoli pesto gnocchi. Save room for dessert and get the olive oil cake with blood orange and fresh cream!
Kayleigh Harrington: Amazing pasta. Started with delicious mozzarella, then the mafaldini (you have to try it), the agnolotti was nice, and finished with a warm ginger apple tart. Go early and sit at the bar.
