    This has to be my new favorite restaurant! The food was incredible. I ordered the Croque Madame for brunch. Packed with jamon and topped with a fried egg…was absolutely heavenly. The atmosphere is so delightful… I felt like I was transported to a Parisian cafe. Such a great experience and can’t wait to go back and try dinner there soon!
