FRENCH RIVIERA Bakery Cafe

Ok place. Cute interior. The pastries feels like they had been in shelf for long. Expresso was more of a coffee, could easily feel the water. The cream brulée had a soft caramelized top.

We enjoyed brunch here very much! The food was fresh and delicious, the people who work here were prompt and polite, and the ambiance was wonderful. There are so many plants, it felt like we were in a garden.

Place looks way better after remodeling.

Breakfast is good. Pistachios Croissant can be better.

Late taste good, Excellent presentation.

Restrooms are clean , good job

Parking is limited

The decor inside was beautiful and cute with fresh green plants. However service and quality of food fell short of expectations for such a cute place. Definitely not the best French cafe in Houston or anything. The quality, taste, and flavor of the food was very basic, nothing special about it. We had the croissant tuna salad, chicken Florentine omelette, and a lavender latte. Unfortunately I won't be coming back.

When I asked if we could be seated to take our orders. We were told yes and waited almost half an hour only to realize that we had to stand in line to pay. Waste of time. And the grilled chicken sandwich was terrible that after two bites, we left it. As for everything else, such as the Riviera Omelette, Croissants, Pain au Chocolat, Pain au raisin with fresh pressed orange juice was wonderful. Spent a good 80 dollars for 2 adult and a child for this breakfast so make sure you have a fat wallet before coming. The people who worked there were very nice and kind.

The food is good.
I've been here a handful of times, and it's always packed.

And I think this is one of the major issues I have with the place. You can't sit and talk comfortably without feeling like you need to yell or that people are all in on your conversation.

Also, it might be hard to find a place to sit if you are more than 2 people. All tables are small. This is not the place to have a party of more than 2 3 people, or you'll be pulling in tables together and sitting awkwardly.

Parking is also limited if you go at peak times.

Outside of that, the food and coffee are good as well as the pastries.

Fortunately, this restaurant has outgrown its location, and that should speak to their quality.

Delighted with this place. It is always a pleasant experience.
The atmosphere is super nice and cozy.
The staff is quite friendly, attentive and always ready to help with whatever you need.
The food is delicious, I have tried several things on the menu and everything has been good. My favorite was the tuna sandwich and the florentine omelette. The Croissant are always the best ever. Sweets and coffee delicious. It is excellent for a breakfast alone, as a couple or with a group of friends.
Good parking.
