From a local, this place is not worth the hype. The inside is very pretty but it feels like it’s trying to convince you that’s it’s nicer than it is. Me and my partner ordered two of the favorite sandwiches. One of them being the alaskan smoked, which was topped with too much salmon that tasted a bit spoiled, and flavors flavor depth. And mine was a german one, that was so small and too sweet for a sandwich. EVERYTHING IS MADE IN THE MORNING, all the sandwiches and sits out at ROOM temperature FOR THE REST OF THE DAY.Not to mention it was a hot day and we were served tap water with NO ICE at room temp. i cant imagine the food not spoiling, especially on a hot day in a place with no AC.

Read moreClaudette has worked her magic again with this incredible sandwich shop. Happy Cow was a Sunday staple for years, and La 'Croque builds on that legacy and somehow makes it even more magical!
