food quality: 4/5 service: 5/5 cleanliness: 5/5 value: 5/5 Dropped by for a sweet treat and grabbed a pistachio spiral croissant. The staff were nice and the restaurant was well-kept. The croissant itself was a bit on the dry side, not sure if it was made much earlier on the day and dried out (I purchased this around 4PM), and the filling to croissant ratio could have bit a bit more balanced by having more filling. Might have just been an off day. Overall, the flavor was still good and I wouldn’t mind coming back to try other items.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

My favorite bakery/cafe! The steak sandwich was phenomenal and we always love the Spicy Ham and Jam. Ashley F was the BEST server!! -especially with us having little kids. She went out of her way to ensure we all had a great experience. ◡̈

Our experience at Gourmandise was exceptional. Every dish was beautifully presented, and the flavors were even better than they looked. I ordered the Scone Brisket Benedict and it was incredible. The pulled brisket was tender and full of flavor, and the bacon cheddar chive scone underneath gave it the perfect balance of savory and soft. The hollandaise was rich and smooth without being too heavy, and the roasted potatoes were crispy and seasoned perfectly. One of the eggs had a slightly runny white, but the rest of the dish more than made up for it. My coworker had the Pasta with Butternut Squash and Brown Butter Sage Cream Sauce, and it looked amazing. The pasta was hand-cut and fresh, the sauce had that perfect mix of buttery and earthy, and the frizzled Brussels sprouts added a nice crunch. The grilled chicken was juicy and flavorful, and he said it was the best he has ever had. Gourmandise really left an impression. The food, the presentation, and the atmosphere all came together perfectly. It is definitely a come back spot.
