7.5
A dessert café built around illusion-style, fruit-shaped pastries with French-Asian inspiration—more about visual craft and clean, mousse-forward flavors than big-batch bakery classics. It works best as a single-item stop: choose one signature fruit dessert and keep expectations aligned with novelty and finesse.
Must-Try Dishes:
Mango fruit-shaped mousse dessert, Orange fruit-shaped mousse dessert, Pain au chocolat

Logistics & Planning
Parking: No valet. Limited street parking; paid garages nearby. Expect difficulty during weekday business hours and evenings.
Dress code: Casual to smart-casual. Jeans and sneakers are common; dress up only if you're coming from an event.
Noise level: Low to moderate — generally calm, café-style volume that allows easy conversation.
Weekend wait: 15–30 min during peak dessert hours; faster turnover if ordering to-go
Weekday lunch: Usually no wait or under 10 minutes
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes — most desserts are vegetarian-friendly.
Vegan options: Very limited — occasional sorbet-style items, but not a reliable vegan stop.
Gluten-free options: Limited — some mousse-based desserts are naturally gluten-free, but cross-contact is likely.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes, especially for a short or casual first date. The desserts are conversation starters and visually impressive, but it’s better for a quick meet-up than a long sit-down.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes. Reservations aren’t typical. Seating is first-come, first-served, and many guests order to-go.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes for older kids and teens who enjoy sweets and visuals. There’s no kids menu or activities, so it’s not ideal for very young children.
Best For
Better for: Photogenic, modern desserts with refined mousse textures and precise presentation.
Skip if: You’re looking for classic bakery staples, large portions, or strong value — traditional bakeries will satisfy more.
