If you like crepes this is the place to go! Manager told me everything is washed down and clean utensils are used when a gfree order comes ... seemed knowledgeable about celiac and importance of avoiding cross contamination. Gave 4 stars simple bc crepes are all you can order off the menu. Noting but the many crepes are available.

My favorite place to go for breakfast or dinner! As a dietitian & celiac I know what questions to ask. When I have discussed the menu with the chef I have felt 110% confident that he knows how to prevent cross contamination & understands the seriousness of celiac disease.

Absolutely outstanding gem! Almost everything on the menu (except two items made with croissants) can be made gluten free, dairy free, and/or egg free. Also, halal meat is available. On my visit there, the chef Adam was also our server. He's personable and knowledgeable. Trust his recommendations. I had a crepe with perfectly cooked duck breast, and my friend had exquisite scallops on hers. We split a Nutella, strawberry, and banana crepe for dessert. Portions are generous (neither of us finished our entree crepes because we wanted dessert!), prices are reasonable. Lots of options for both sweet and savory crepes, lots of options for hot tea, hot coffee drinks, etc. Highly recommended!

Everything on the menu (except raspberry bread Beignets) can be made gluten free. My family and I had 1 of the savory crêpes and 3 different sweet crêpes. All were absolutely delicious. All were very large and filling. Will definitely be back!

I cannot tell you how happy I was to learn that they have a gluten free batter. My husband and I stopped going when I started a GF diet. So happy. The sweet and savory crepes are fantastic....fantastic.

We serendipitously stumbled upon this gem of a place and had a delightful experience! We were warmly welcomed with a sincere bonjour and the entire staff was extremely friendly. You can tell they take pride in their menu as the presentation and taste was superb. Any crepe on the menu can be ordered gluten free and the coffee is french pressed, of course. If you are looking for a charming, understated place that isn't noisy or fast-paced, then look no further...Bon Appetit!

What can I say, but WOW or as my daughter stated the crepes were "heaven". We both indulged in sweet crepes, while my husband enjoyed a savory crepe. We were all beyond pleased. The gluten free version was delicious. Service was very good. Location is very small though or you could call it quaint. The size of the location would be the only possible negative, but the quality and taste does make it worth the wait time, if it arose.

Don't let the petite exterior fool you, this place is a powerhouse of great tastes. I split a savory and a sweet crepe with a friend, both with the gluten free millet option. The chicken, mushroom, spinach savory crepe was delectable and the nutella, strawberry, raspberry sauce sweet crepe was even more amazing. The caramelized raspberry sauce first crunches then melts in your mouth. The service is friendly and accommodating. It is a quaint little place so seating is limited but we went late on a Tuesday night and easily found a seat. I would highly reccomend this place especially for the quality of the gluten free food and hope to be able to visit again before returning to Los Angeles.
