      This spot is perfect for lunch. It was the guido sandwich with Israeli couscous and chickpea salad with a latte for my husband and the alpine sandwich with Israeli couscous and chickpea salad with an orange juice for me. All of the sandwiches are served with two sides. The service and food were both so good. If you are in Downtown Raleigh, check this spot out.

      We both got salads and they were so tasty and perfect. What else was perfect was my salmon, crispy on the outside yet tender inside. Great atmosphere and service too. 5 stars, can't wait to go back!

      Let's start off with the fact that the food is incredible. But more importantly, the owner who is always there is super friendly l, accommodating, and wildly attractive. He's made me laugh so hard every time I go there. Please go there and get some giggles and incredible food. Ambience is spot on too.

      Perfect place for a coffee and a bite to eat.
      The owner is from southern France and I loved talking with him in French.

      They have everything you need for a perfect coffee, latte, cappuccino etc.

      If you're looking for a place to go and be transported to France, this is the place for you!

      I can't wait to come back here and try the food.

      Great place!

      Great spot for lunch in downtown, tons of delicious and healthy sandwich and salad options. The ultimate cheese sandwich, Alpine, Pollobella, and Poulet are my favorites. The sides are healthy, filling, and best of all delicious! Be sure to try the brownie too!

      I clearly looked overwhelmed as I looked over the menu and when I was asked if I needed help, I told the gent behind the counter that I was on a keto diet so no bread. He offered to put together a prosciutto salad and I jumped on it.

      Holy smokes, this was excellent. A huge pile of thin sliced meat on to of a spinach salad tossed in a light vinaigrette dressing and mixed with roasted walnuts a bits of goat cheese. It was absolutely delicious and completely keto. Wow.

      Great service, a great meal, absolutely fabulous.

      Stopped in on a whim when I saw they had vegetarian choices. I had the "Miss Piggy" sandwich and it was absolutely delicious! The two sides I chose were the Couscous and Chickpeas. Both excellent. The owner is from the south of France and has a great personality. Cannot wait to go back!!
