The 38 Essential Restaurants in Phoenix

"Owned and operated by French-trained pastry chef Eugenia Theodosopoulos and her French husband Gilles Combes (the friendly GM), this busy, minimalist cafe offers the city’s best croissants, pain au chocolat, and macarons, as well as wonderful brioche, tarts, cookies, and kouign amann (the latter, weekends only), Savory breakfast and lunch options include excellent scrambled eggs (enriched with cream, Dijon, and Parmesan), quiche Lorraine, luscious lemon-basil chicken salad, and (because Theodosopoulos is Greek) spanakopita." - Nikki Buchanan, Chris Malloy
