Spent $14 for only 2 items. This was my first time coming here and I got to say that it was calm and welcoming, but the price and taste were not there for the food and drinks. Didn't live up to the Paris Standards

PARKING |
[Parking was easy to find, even in a small complex building. The address will take you straight to the location and soon as you find the building, there should be plenty of spots to choose from; either in front of the building or in the open lots.]

EXTERIOR & INTERIOR |
[The exterior of the building is in a small convenient shopping complex and is a little hidden in the back area (wish they were in the open more near the highway). Soon as you see the building, it is hard to miss the big red sign which is their logo. Soon as you walk in, the decor is pretty catered to the more urban, Paris look, which is what they are going for. They have plenty of seating to choose from whether it is inside or outside seating. You have some seating for comfort, traditional, or even bar style.]

IS IT CLEAN? |
[For the most part, I have not seen a dirty spot anywhere in the store. It was pretty clean when I walked in and walked out.]

FOOD & DRINKS |
[Here comes the important part which you want to note. The food and drink was delicious and it was good. However, for the price of $14 worth of just two items, which was pretty insane, it wasn't all that great or different from any other place. It was honestly a little disappointing that the chocolate croissant didn't live up for to the standard of its high price value of proximity $4-5. It was lacking the chocolate and croissant combination because it seemed like they wedge only two chocolate pieces in the croissant and just focused on baking the breading than focusing on the taste texture and uniqueness of the chocolate croissant.
Now for the Almond Latte which was probably the more higher value item on the board which is around $8-9. For a coffee that is smooth, it was basic with no care. The latte should come with some ideal flavor or hit to give you a wow spectacular, but however, it tasted no different than a coffee that you would get at your local market. The foam on the latte is key to its success, even with design, but it didn't have the success nor design to live up to its standard. Coffee is the highlight of my day and if I am not satisfied by at least the coffee, then it has not gained my respect. When comes to a cafe, the coffee (at least) should be designed, tampered, and developed with care and respect, but however, this coffee was not given any respect at all.]

[The service was quick and simple to the point.]

OVERALL |
[Would I recommend this place? Only if you are wanting to see the interior of the building. For something that is so basic and has no spark, it is disappointing to the least that the shop doesn't put care into their coffee, more or less, create a memorable experience with their food. For a store that incorporates a more Paris -Style cafe, it is not the Paris-style cafe you are going to hope for.]
