So French Café — Restaurant in Devonport-Takapuna

I recently visited So French Café in Devonport and had a truly delightful experience. The highlight of my meal was the bacon and brie gallette, which was packed full of flavor and cooked to perfection. While the presentation could have been a bit better, it certainly didn't detract from the overall enjoyment of the dish.

Following the gallette, I had the delicate crepe which was absolutely excellent. It was light, fluffy, and bursting with flavor. The service at So French Café was also spot on. The staff were friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure that I had a great experience.

Overall, I would highly recommend So French Café to anyone looking for a delicious and authentic French meal in Devonport. The food was top-notch, the service was impeccable, and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. I can't wait to go back and try more of the delicious...

First time trying here after seeing the good reviews. We ordered 2 coffees, almond crossiant from the cabinet, beef bourguignon and the galette. The crossiant was not toasted nor does it have the puffy texture and softness inside. The taste was strong in pistachio, which wasnt bad but it was little disappointing. Their galette tasted ok, good presentation but I think is not so authentic as the crust is not crispy at all. The beef bourguignon was their most expensive option for almost $30. But it tasted pretty average, beef was not tender and spaghetti was just ok and portion was small. I can probably get 2 big bowl of beef brisket from chinese restaurant that tasted more tender, juicier and fatty than this one for the price of this dish. Their coffee was quite good, strong but to my liking. Nice ambiance, staff was friendly but probably wont be back for the...

Service was good, although not full table service (ie, we had to order at the counter and pay at the counter at the end), which for us is not an issue. My eggs benedict was disappointing, as was my wife's savoury/buckwheat pancake meal. My latte was disappointing, but my later cappuccino was good. At this point we were thinking that we would try something different on the menu next time ... but when I paid, I was charged more than the price shown on the menu and agreed by me at the point of sale: ie, my receipt shows the correct amount, but my credit card statement shows a higher amount. Is this a compulsory service charge/tip? If so, then why was this not pointed out at the time, and why is it not reflected on the receipt? After this unpleasant surprise I will...
