3 /5 Belem Ramos: I recently visited this spot for the first time, and I was really impressed with the overall experience. I ordered the Champignon Crepe and the French Revolution Crepe, with a few custom adjustments due to food intolerances & allergies. I also tried their Green Tea Matcha Latte.
For the Champignon Crepe, I opted for the gluten-free version, which costs an additional $1. While the texture wasn’t as soft or flavorful as I expected, it wasn’t bad at all. The savory fillings—onions, spinach, and an over-hard egg—really made the crepe delicious. The combination of ingredients enhanced the flavor, making the crepe much more enjoyable, though on its own, it could have been a little more flavorful. I also added bacon ($1.25) and swapped goat cheese for mozzarella cheese, both of which complemented the savory filling perfectly.
The French Revolution Crepe was another highlight. I made a couple of adjustments here as well: I had them remove the raspberries and replace them with strawberries and added a little peanut butter($0.69). The sweet and savory combination of strawberries and peanut butter worked wonderfully, and the crepe had a nice balance of flavors.
As for the Green Tea Matcha Latte, I ordered it iced with oat milk ($0.75). While it was creamy and smooth, I found the latte to be quite sweet—maybe a bit too much for my taste. If you enjoy very sweet matcha drinks, this one will definitely appeal to you. Personally, I prefer a more subtle sweetness in my matcha, but that’s just a matter of personal taste.
One of the things I really appreciated was that the restaurant offers gluten-free crepes, making it easy for those with food intolerances to enjoy their menu. They also allow you to swap out Panini bread for a crepe, though it’s worth noting that they don’t offer gluten-free bread for the Paninis—just the gluten-free crepe option. This is great for those looking for a gluten-free meal.
As for the service, while it took a little while for me to be acknowledged when I first arrived (the staff seemed to be in a quick meeting), once I was greeted, the service was excellent. The cashier was incredibly patient and kind, answering all my questions and providing a paper menu since I wasn’t quite ready to order. There was a small mix-up with my gluten-free crepe, but they quickly fixed it and even remade one of the crepes to meet my dietary needs. I really appreciated their understanding and willingness to accommodate my adjustments.
The atmosphere was a bit busy as the place filled up, and there was a bit of a line by the time I was finishing my meal. Once you’re done eating, there isn’t a trash can, but I was told to leave my plates on the table, and the staff would clear them away. There’s plenty of parking in the area, which was convenient. They also offer oat milk and almond milk as options for their drinks, so it’s nice to have choices for those with dietary restrictions.
Overall, I really enjoyed the food and the service. The ability to adjust orders for food intolerances made a big difference, and I’ll definitely be back to try more of their crepes in the future.
