    When we arrived, there was only one person working everything - taking orders, making crepes and espresso drinks, cleaning the restaurant. That setup isn't exactly 5-star worthy, and caused us to wait a lot longer for our food and drinks.

    However, the one person working - Kashawn - was SO quick and efficient and SO pleasant the whole time, it more than made up for it. I kept thinking, I don't know how this guy is keeping up with all this and keeping a smile on his face!

    As a side note, just as we were about to leave, another cook showed up and was NOT pleasant - very grumpy. If she had been the one helping us, this review would be quite different.

    This establishment had a very diverse menu, and all of the food we got was delicious.  However, it was tiny with very little room to sit and the tables upstairs are all high-tops.  You may find a spot to sit and eat, but are probably better off picking up the food and taking it elsewhere.  There are a few tables downstairs, but you need to go down a steep circular staircase to get there.  Also, the bathrooms are down those stairs.  Which is another reason that I would recommend this restaurant for take-out rather than eat-in.  The employees were very nice and acommodating to special orders.  There seemed to be a lot of customers who are regulars, and the employees greeted them as such.

    I have Celiac and this place offers gluten free crepes, but they do not wipe down the cook surfaces between regular and gluten free crepes and refused to do so even though they had all four cooktops available when we came in. They told me they don't wipe down because 'they don't have people who are that sensitive'. Service was extremely unfriendly and dismissive and they seemed annoyed that I asked about cross-contamination. Don't come if you are actually Celiac, this is not a friendly business

    Delicious crepes! It gets a bit messy or maybe that's just me...anyway, I recommend the Nutella crepe.  The shop is small so we had to wait a bit to get a table outside. It had a fair amount of customers. I liked the thing that holds the crepe inside of it. They had lines you could rip off. I wish there were more farther down. That's when it started getting messy.

    Crepes are good but service is not the friendliest.  I thought the attendant just happened to be in a bad mood that day (it can happen to any of us) but decided to give it a second chance and the experience was even worse.  I mean, if the place was packed and busy I might understand they can't please everyone but both times the place was completely empty when we woke in until we left.   I don't think I'll go back.
