"Whimsical? Yes! Creative? You bet! My first stop after hopping off the olde flying sardine can, and boy was I impressed. Pastries were the highlights here. Some of the most beautifully crafted croissants with the perfect, not too buttery, crunch. Sublime is an understatement. The Tres Leches French Toast made with sorghum and squash brioche was a different combination of unexpected, yet delightful, flavors. Mesquite smoke trout roe and yuzu mayo on a hot dog? LOLZ! I don’t know what to say other than it was sooooo incredibly good! Recommended pairing : a hearty serving of chile-aioli tater tots. What kind of beaker wielding nerd comes up with this deliciousness? Highly recommend."

"Had coffee and croissants (which were awesome!) one day and knew I had to come back for dinner! We had the pretzel to start which was almost like a dessert and delicious. The baby gem lettuce was also fantastic and had a great dressing. For mains we had the elote pasta which was buttery and rich, and the fresh pasta was so tasty. The toppings added a nice texture too. But our favorite by far was the Trout. It was perfectly cooked, had the crispiest skin, and topped with fresh herbs and pickled red onions (I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, pickled red onions make everything taste better.) The atmosphere was great and our server was so fun! We will be back! And for their breakfast you can’t go wrong with their savory croissants or their churro croissant! So amazing!"

"We stopped at Valentine for brunch and shared the burger and tater tots, the little gem salad with smoked trout, and the French toast. The savory dishes were delicious and well prepared. The French toast was like a dessert, very sweet sauces. There were also a huge collection of house made pastries that looked great but we didn’t have room to try them."

"The avocado toast was very interesting! It came with green apple which actually was balanced out by all the flavors. The chai was very spicy and it left a taste in my throat which I wasn’t against but it provided as a cleanser in other foods. A side of cornbread was small but it was unique. All the food we got was good! The drinks took a bit long. I wish the chef that won the award was still there."

"What an absolute gem of a place. I was skeptical at first, but my wife said I would love it. They have the most amazing and unique drinks and foods. The vanilla corn cappuccino was off the charts good. Then I ordered the pretzel which came with a unique butter and honey, Tomato/tahini bread, and their Olive dish. Flavors that you never had before. This establishment opened in 2020 and survived Covid so that says a lot. I will definitely be going back and want to try some of their breakfast items next. Also, the staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable."
