Do not pass this place by!!
by irarelydothis
I picked this place out on line, purely went on the reviews, I have lived on the northside for 24 years and this is the BEST find. The food was so fresh and hot, when I arrived to pick it up they were finishing my order so it would be hot and fresh. We ordered some of everything. It impressed my friends who are natives of France and my friends who are not. Do not underestimate the power of this little store front.
Pros: food and service are unbelievable
Cons: none

Real French
by adamhbrt
I love this place!!! I lived in France for a year. After returning to the states I have not been able to find real french bread, real french cured meats, or real french anything for that matter. This place has some how pulled it off. I almost feel like they fly to france once a week to pick up fresh produce. It is ridiculously good!!
Pros: The Best
Cons: none
