Baguette Cafe — Restaurant in Spring Valley

Introduction: I always wanted to try this place out, but everytime I get out of work, it's close. However, I had the opportunity to try them out today because I got the day off. Boy am I glad, read on.....

Customer Service: 5/5 Two words, WORLD CLASS. You seriously don't get services like this too often. The gentleman who took our orders, whom I believe to be the owner was OUTSTANDING. I believe he said his name was Oliver.

He was patience, accommodating and super knowledgeable. I am super picky, since I don't see what I like on the menu, he actually made my sandwich the way I requested. I was like, get out of here, really? Furthermore, it came out perfect!

Honestly, we got better service here then a high end Steakhouse and that's no exaggeration.

Price: 5/5 Super inexpensive, we ordered a bunch of items and barely came out to $34. That's one dish and a drink at Cheesecake Factory. Especially with services like this, pricing really doesn't even matter.

Quality: 5/5 My special baquette order and white blended mocha was exceptional and my friend ordered the spinach egg quiche, according to my friend, it was also superb. In addition, we also had the raison baguette as dessert and that was fluffy yummy as well.

Quantity: 5/5 Every portion was definitely enough for a starving person, just perfect.

Atmosphere: 5/5 Although it was super busy, (not surprised for sure) it was nice and cozy. The temperature was also perfect.

Cleanliness: 5/5 The place was immaculate, considering how busy they were. I was also impressed by how clean the restroom was for being so busy.

Tips: The owner is most definitely amazing at running this place. Furthermore, they baked their croissants every...

Be warned, This is a place where they have NO standards! The owner (Olivier) would rather pay the health department fines than actually correct issues that almost shut him down twice. There once was a day where we didn’t have running water and he still had us work with dirty half-cleaned dishes. He lies about how fresh their pastries are. The only thing made in store is the desserts. The baguettes and croissants are from the box in their freezer, so imagine paying their ridiculous prices for freshly frozen croissants when other places actually make theirs in-store. The chicken is never cooked to 165, only par-cooked to at most 145 degrees so It isn’t even brought to proper temperature when ordered because the concern is more on how the bread looks, over serving uncooked meat. The cheese will sit on the line until it molds, to which the owner feels it’s still usable if you cut the edges off. None of the baristas clean the coffee containers right, so they just keep collecting gunk in the spouts. They rarely clean the drains or counters. The fridges are disgusting, one time I had to pry mozzarella because it was stuck the the inside of the fridge from the cheese binding to it. They don’t clean their slicer properly, they’ll leave it dirty until the end of the day. He also thinks setting up wine vendor appointments is more important than paying his employees, so he pays them days late. He and his family think that you’re stupid if you’re vaccinated, they prefer to only hire unvaccinated. He has most of his staff convinced they’ll die if they get vaccinated because of how much he bashed the government. They don’t follow SNHD/CDC protocol. ALL IN ALL, LAZY ESTABLISHMENT WITH...

My family & I recently had a very pleasant experience at the Baguette Cafe near 215 & Durango. We went for an Easter Sunday lunch. At that time, it was marked as “very busy”, but there was no wait time to order & find outdoor seating. The Cafe is situated in an office complex, so we didn’t experience any commotion nor noise other than the hum of 215. There was a tall, salt & pepper haired gentleman whom we understood to be the owner. He was very prompt, professional & knowledgeable. When we revealed we were new to his restaurant, he took the time & went to nice lengths to describe the menu & options. Even with an apparent new-hire taking our order, everything moved smoothly & quickly. Prices are on the slightly higher side, dissuading us from eating there too frequently. But, the prices is due to the high quality, variety, freshness & flavors. The bacon quiche was very good. The curry eggplant sandwich was very tasty. Judging by the speed which a chocolate pastry disappeared in front of my boys (I didn’t even get to taste it), it was very good as well. The egg croissant with tomato sauce was extremely good. My wife commented that this Cafe’s croissants are better than the ones we’ve had in France! The staff was professional & friendly. But, standing out beyond them was Timothy. He was quick, professional, courteous, supportive of the new-hire, and very knowledgeable. My family & I highly recommend the...
