Ashley SpearsJanuary 30, 2017The croque monseur was truly delicious. I didn't know what to think with the brioche bread and the sauce on the inside but holy smokes it was delicious. Will be back for more
Best brunch spot in Palo Alto! Wait times are exaggerated though, so don't be scared off by the long estimates. Try the pain perdu special - unlike any French toast you've had before.
Elynn LeeNovember 9, 2015Amazing eggs benedict! I had the Florentine and it was really great. English muffin was perfectly toasted, egg yolks were runny, sauce was tasty. Long lines for brunch, but it's worth it.
Anna JamesNovember 21, 2014Lamb Benedict and Omelette de la mer makes a delicious and satisfying hearty brunch. For the sweet tooth, this is the place for French toast.
NanaApril 14, 2018Love this place! The croque monsieur was delish. Salmon Benedict was disappointing. I love their duck liver salad. Mango mimosa was delish 🥂
Rajeev VadalamudiOctober 6, 2017One of my favorite spots in the bay area for brunch. Everything here is great. Can't keep a track of how many times I've been here.
William GunnNovember 8, 2015There's a tuna sandwich that's basically a Niçoise salad on bread, which is great. Sunday mornings are packed due to Farmer's market. Get a champagne cocktail w/gin&campari
Kat 🐱June 8, 2016Moules Marinières (Mussels in white wine, garlic and parsley sauce) is just... average... PASTIS' brunch is a lot better than their dinner😕
Omar Jordan FJuly 8, 2012Don't leave without trying the Le Parisian French toast (or any French toast for that matter). Staff are friendly and food is delicious. Try everything you can fit.
Anurag NileshJanuary 15, 2015I tried the pudding of the day and salmon Benedict, both were excellent. A bit on pricey side but seemed worth it.
Eduardo RamirezJuly 9, 2017my favorite part was the biscuit that comes with the entrees. The food is good and the wait time is non existent
It's the best French restaurant and brunch spot on the Peninsula!
Jacoba BolFebruary 10, 2012Most amazing French bistro in the bay area. Come in and go back to Paris for lunch or dinner.
Jennifer KoMarch 10, 2013First time here? Put your name on the list. If you just wait in line you'll lose your place.
AllisonFebruary 10, 2012Closest thing you can get to a French bistro that isn't physically located in France. Delicieux!
Order mussels, Croque Madame. ZERO corkage! Waiters are French too!
Grace YooMarch 19, 2018프렌치 스타일 브런치 찾고 있으시다면 이 곳, 그리고 살몬 에그 베네딕트와 샴페인 드 오믈렛 메뉴 추천해요. 양도 푸짐하고 맛도 평균 이상이예요!:)
Thierry MichalakFebruary 7, 2015Une belle carte de vin , des plats bien français . C est bon et le patron est génial
Gisele SagawaJune 19, 2015Um pãozinho quente doce muito leve que ele nos ofereceu como sendo Brioche.

"Check out the Scream Sorbet booth, located next to the Kettle corn. Their sorbet is the BEST I've ever tasted, and everything is vegan! My favorite flavor is Coconut Thai Basil."
