I went the last week they were open (last week of July). They make (made) the best croissants in Los Angeles. Their almond croissants are huge and amazing to eat if you want sweet, the regular are perfection. Too bad the outdoor seating is so small compared to Father's Office. I feel so bad for the owners, they had a great place and my feeling is Covid-19 and a landlord not working with them made them close. The Asian lady (who may be the owner) who took my to go order was so nice, but her face looked sad. If they can set up a commercial kitchen operation I'll follow them. Good luck!
I am completely happily surprised and satisfied with the Beef Stroganoff I devoured my dish! The beef was absolutely tender and tasty. The potatoes were cooked to perfection with a slight crispyness. What more can I say but to try it yourself! Don't sleep on this place!
This place was very delicious! We stopped in on a Friday night before a movie and the service was excellent, quick, and super friendly. The food was great! I really liked the butter for the bread and I love that they print out their specials on a menu everyday. We were very pleased with our meals! French Onion Soup was unbelievably tasty. My only note would be that the salad wasn't my favorite. It was quite dry and didn't have much flavor, but who knows I'm no salad expert. I will definitely be coming back soon though and I would recommend stopping in!
Most pastries were really good (and I eat many french pastries). Given the price, I would definitely recommend. The lemon tart is excellent, the chocolate tart was also very rich and good. The apple tart tasted just like those in french bakeries. I would just skip on the eclair (chocolate) which wasn't great because of the outside "pâte à choux". Would go back.
Heartbroken that it close. BEST COFFEE around. If you want this coffee, I recognized one of the staff at a market. After talking for a bit, I asked him where it was that La Dijonaise got its coffee. Here's the answer: Delta Coffee Roasters 18124 Mt. Washington St. Fountain Valley, CA 92708 https://www.deltacaferoasting.com/ 714-444-1810 I went there last week after taking my kids to Downtown Disney and picked up two pounds of the French roast. OMG I missed that great roast so much. If you liked this coffee as much as I do, order from then online and support this great small business!
