Pascàline French Bistro & Patisserie — Restaurant in Santa Rosa

Stopped in for a snack around 11am. Not too crowded, most folks sitting outside. There's a small elevated seating area away from the main area. This part has two picnic tables with umbrellas, in a garden area. Very pleasant and relaxing.

Service was quick, prices were reasonable. Menu is sandwiches, salads and baked goods.

The food was hit and miss. Ordered a piece of flan, cheddar broccoli quiche, and a slice of 'breakfast cake'. The flan was nice, good flavor and a pleasant sweetness, but the crust was rather dense. The quiche was nice as well, but not much flavor. Maybe a sharper cheddar and some garlic? Not sure what the breakfast cake was supposed to be, but it was very dry. Honestly, my wife and I each had a bite and that was it. Dry enough it wasn't worth finishing.

Some of the sandwiches looked tasty, but we didn't try any. Maybe we should have gone that...

The food was okay, but the service wasn't. I got a Cobb salad, which was very good. My friend got egg salad on a thick piece of bread - so thick, she couldn't cut through the crust. She had a side salad, and for both of us, the lettuce was cut into pieces that were WAY too big. The service was pretty bad. The people behind the counter were nice enough, but they really didn't know what they were doing. We both got a French baguette (again, okay, but you can get much better elsewhere), and she wanted to loosely wrap mine in a piece of paper, and seemed mystified when I asked for something to carry it home in. They forgot to give my friend hers, and it took asking 3 times for them to get it for her. We both agreed - it's pricy, and good for takeout, but not...

Pretty good bakery. I only showed up to pick up some crossiants. The place was busy around noon so I had a wait a bit before anyone came by to rang me up. Once I paid, the cashier just kind of left while the payment tablet was spinning regarding receipt options.

Since the cashier just kind of walked away, I just grabbed the only bag that was within reach assuming it had everything. There was another bag but it was further behind the counter that was likely mine but didn't seem right to reach that far back.

Anyways, I got back and found 1/3 of my items were not packed (lemon bar). The crossiants were good but was kind of peeved by the cashier just walking off and not handing me the items appropriately. Oh well, $6...
