My god! WeHo readers, you must hear this. \r \r I went there yesterday before the gym, and thought it was really expensive for what it is, I’d rather have a Starbucks, at least ...

Editorial review from Citysearch 2/3/2014

Great little Parisian coffee, crepe, sandwich, and waffle shop. It even has a snooty Parisian owner who'll treat you rudely like you were in Paris. The food is great. The coffee wonderful. The waffles and crepes worth the snooty man. Street parking only via meter. more

Plaisir Consists of Succulent, Mouth Watering Desserts!! 2/17/2012

I don't think there is a bakery in Hollywood/Beverly Hills area that rivals Plaisir for quality. Their bread is outstanding. The crust development is just perfection; thick, crispy crusts that crack into fluffy, light interiors. Plaisir has also mastered the croissant, making something properly proofed, buttery, airy and feather light. All of their pastries are equally wonderful. I've never had anything from Plaisir that wasn't fresh, perfectly cooked and wonderfully presented. If you haven't tasted their chocolate cakes and cream puffs, you're missing out! Cheers, Jeremie Lachance more

Editorial review from eat24hours.com 1/12/2011

The Croque Monsieur Sandwich and Monterosa were very good. It's a neat idea to have French fast-food cafe. I wasn't impressed with the Crepes Suizette however, a bit bland, needed more Grand Marnier. Great Iced Tea. Certainly not Paris, but great for a local place that's convenient. more

Excellent (not so) light bite 7/20/2010

There are many choices for lunch in this area. I had to be dragged in to this one since I have my faves. Glad that I went.\r \r I had a mushroom quiche and it was fabulous. Cappuccino was really decent, albeit kind of small for a ""large"". I'm not sure if I can go back in a breakfast mood because they have no ketchup. Umm... I guess there's no ketchup in France. I'm serious.\r \r Kudos for a yummy meal, I'll try a sweet crepe next time!\r \r PS. Please relax about the ketchup, I realize that it might not suit your culinary point of view but you'll only limit your patrons by not having it. Pros: cute place, great people watching Cons: No ketchup? more

A little taste of Paris 7/12/2010

Run, get the cream puff. Seriously. It rivals the best pastries in Paris,which I believe can be attributed to the French chef. This is my new go to spot for decadance. Pros: amazing pastries Cons: parking can be hard to find more

Best pastries in WEHO 5/11/2010

i am a big fan of Plaisir. the pastries are fantastic, the crepes are truly delicious and how about the quiches? wow! i am so happy this place opened. i am addicted to it. i highly recommend this place to any pastries lovers. Pros: Everything is delicious - Great service more

Cream puffs! 4/21/2010

I am a daily reader of Daily Candy so when i saw that they recommended Plaisir during the weekend and their famous puff pastries, I decided to go and check it out. The service was great, but they had not any cream puff left. They told me that actually because of the Daily Candy article, they had sold all their production.Good for them, bad for me. The flavors of the day were vanilla and strawberry, but apparently they change them almost every day. However my disappointment did not last long as i decided to have a nutella crepes with strawberry and a cappuccino. I also ordered one of the chocolate croissant as they looked really good. EVERYTHING was extraordinary and the service was perfect. I have ordered some cream puffs for the weekend just in case they would sell all of them once again. Pros: Service,pricing more

Yummy Red Velvet 4/17/2010

I m a fan of this place since it opened. Their sweet crepes and waffles are to die for, and the red velvet cake they have added to their options recently is probably the best red velvet cake i have ever had. Not to mention the coffee. How can anyone go to Starbucks or Coffee Bean after tasting their ice latte. I would only love to have more options in the menu for lunch. Pros: Red Velvet, Crepes, Waffles Cons: Lunch options more

So gooood!!!! 4/11/2010

I m completely new to this world of writing reviews but after my experince at Plaisir, I felt encourage to do it. First of all, let me say that the friendly service, the details to attention, the decor and specially the quality of food at very reasonable prices is the main reason why i am writing this review. When i enter into this little new cafe, i feel like going into Paris. It is quite amazing how you can be transported from LA to France! i am a big fan. Plaisir you rock... Pros: PRICES!! more

Great Waffle in LA!!! Finally... 3/24/2010

I am a waffle fan and it is very difficult to find in LA a good quality waffle at a reasonable price. I was not expecting to find waffles here as it looks more like a coffee shop, but when i saw someone eating one with nutella, i could not go without tasting it! and let me tell you...it was YUMMY!!! it s probably the best i ve had in ages!!! as good as the original Belgium ones i had in Brussels some years ago!...the chef would not tell me the ingredients (I understand) but i m definitely coming back to have the maple syrup one with strawberries!...the coffee however was good but not as good as people are saying..as i notice people talk a lot about their coffee, it is very reasonable for the price they are charging (definitely better value than any other, specially Starbucks) but not as exceptional as some say... Pros: Waffle, price Cons: coffee more

Great expectations. Hope they move to NYC. 3/22/2010

I was on holidays in California and was recommended this place by some friends who live in WeHo... Once I gave it a chance, I tried to go as many times as I could while I was in LA.\r The place is ""too beautiful"" (let me explain), I sometimes tend to think that trendy, fashion places do not have the best food. In this case, croissants are absolutely amazing. Crepes are awesome and I was attended always with a smile (I have´nt always got that attention in LA). A great place with great food that makes you think you are in... I don´t know, I´ve never been to Paris but something like that.\r Anybody knows if these guys have franchises outside California? I´d love to get those croissants in NYC. Pros: Croissants that look french Cons: Too trendy more

I REALLY Recomend this place 3/1/2010

I have been going to this since they open. I always have capuccino at this place. I really love Italian coffee, because I am half Italian. So, i do not know why people are writing all these horrible things. Specially, I know this place so well, I always enjoy coming to this place enjoy a great and strong coffee that I would say much better than having american coffee at starbucks. Also, the price i do not find it that expensive it is less pricy than starbucks. So, i rather prefer going to this place to have a real coffee, enjoy a nice place where I can use my computer to work or even listen to music with my ipod, or their ipod. I find this place so relaxing and great desserts to try. I would rather go to this place than other ones. I would love if they could be everywhere as the other coffee places. more

My epic adventures in ... Plaisir! 2/26/2010

Beyond the exceptional service and friendly atmosphere, i would have to say that their coffee exceeds my expectations. The setting is a hip vibe that reminded me of one of my trips to Paris. Very Nostalgic, and the people are extremely warm and friendly. I order a cappuccino and a chocolate strawberry crepe'! AMAZING. PLAISIR is my new passion..... thank you for the experience. C'est La Vie Pros: seriously, best coffee ever! more

Le Plaisir... lives up to its name! 2/26/2010

I tried this place for the first time only yesterday and guess what? I'm back already - and actually writing my review from there using the their wifi. Oh, did I mention they also have iPods at your disposal? But all of this is detail, really: the big thing here is the luscious atmosphere and friendly service. As far as food is concerned, they make the best waffles in town, the crepes are insane and the ice cream comes in all sorts of exotic flavors (try the ginger!) Truly a great addition to the WeHo food scene. Pros: Great atmosphere, great service, great food! Cons: None! more

BUILDING A REPUTATION W PHONY REVIEWS 2/25/2010

My god! WeHo readers, you must hear this. \r \r I went there yesterday before the gym, and thought it was really expensive for what it is, I’d rather have a Starbucks, at least they know what they’re doing, anyway I decided to post a review and look at what I found… \r \r Scroll down and read “Anna loves Food” 02/23 review called “absolutely pathetic!” and look at how these guys are embracing the word pathetic by spreading phony reviews all over!!!\r \r When she posted her review on 02/23 there had been a total of 2 reviews in 2 months, one on 01/29, a second on 02/15 but guess what??? All of a sudden, the day after they found her review (which I assume they didn’t like much…), as much as 7 reviews were posted in one single day (02/24) to try burying a blatant reality?, that’s really funny.\r \r At first I really thought that the place was just one of the traps we don’t want to fall into, which won’t last long anyway, but seeing how hard they try now to build up a reputation fabricating phony reviews is terribly miserable, and dishonest. \r \r WeHo Customers, BEWARE!!! (Now look at how many new fantastic reviews will be posted after mine…fun!?)\r \r ---------------------------------------------------------------------------\r \r 02/23 by Anna went:\r \r “ABOLUTELY PATHETIC!\r by Anna loves food at Citysearch\r I love all these new food concepts, and have really became a big “aficionado” of Sprinkles Cupcakes, PinkBerry, etc… but the other day I have been so saddened to see how hard sometimes people try, and how terrible it looks and tastes at the end… People tend to forget that gone are the days when you could hide behind the word “concept”, customers know what is good, and in the food arena very few will manage to emerge and better true and genuine ideas/talents. Food was very poor, my coffee was “ok”, the place wasn’t clean and the only positive note was about the service… sorry, you’ll excuse me but I won’t be back.”\r more

EXCELENT DESSERT, EXCELENT PLACE TO CHAT 2/24/2010

What I wrote the other day is not a lye. I am sure some people that are writing here. They have even been to this place, because you do not even know the cost of the coffee here. I rather prefer to have a coffee here than in other place, because I am fan of Italian strong coffee. I am half Italian so i love the taste of strong coffee. So, i rather prefer going here than to starbucks or coffee beans where the coffee for me is not that strong. Also, i enjoy the different selection of desserts that I can have in this place. In other place, i could only have poor coffee and not that many selections of desserts. Like if i go to starbucks there are only few things that I can eat there. Also, these places are so crowded sometimes that i can not even have a relaxing time. I love plaisir because i can have a peaceful and relaxing time working with my computer or even listening to music. Also, sometimes I enjoy chatting with the owner Danny he is very nice guy, with who you can talk and have a very interesting conversation and he is always willing to serve me well and treat me well. So, if i had a good service, good coffee mandatory for me and great selection of desserts why i should go to other place. I really have nice times at plaisir like the word says but itself a place for pleasure and to enjoy, i always go there. I did not write before a review because my lack of time. So, come to plaisir people and i promise you that you would enjoy being in this place. \r \r \r WHEN YOU ENTER IN THIS PLACE YOU FEEL SO RELAX. PEOPLE WORKING THERE ARE SO NICE. THEY TREAT YOU SO WELL AND YOU CAN SEE A HUGE SELECTION OF DESSERTS AND DRINKS. VERY SPECIAL COFFEE, HEY REAL COFFEE. ALSO, THE DESSERTS ARE SO SPECIAL, AMAZING TASTE AND UNIQUE PATISSERIE SPECIALLY FRENCH PATISSERIE. I WELCOME EVERYONE TO COME TO PLAISIR AND HAVE A NICE TIME WITH FRIENDS OR ALONE HAVING SOME DELICIOUS YUMMY DESSERTS. COME AND YOU WOULD SEE THAT YOU ARE MISSING THE BEST PLACE EVER IN LOS ANGELES FOR DESSERTS. Pros: BEST COFFEE, DESSERTS, DECORATION, MUSIC, AMBIENCE AND IPODS more
