Update feb 2024:
Worked with Margarita again last week for a cake for my childs birthday. She was so professional and helpful in developing exactly the right cake. It turned out beautifully and was so well received by the guests and (especially) the kids. They were so excited to see the dinos they almost destroyed it! Haha.
Highly recommend this place for any specialty bakery items.

I had a wonderful experience working with Patisserie Margo. They were able to accommodate my small order with just 5 days notice when other bakeries in the area refused. I emailed back and forth about what I was looking for and Margarita was so helpful.
The cookies turned out very cute. They were buttery and tasty as well.
I definitely recommend and will definitely return.
My friends and I are very particular about traditional French baked goods, particularly croissants. A few months ago, we conducted a rigorous comparative analysis of all the local purveyors of croissants, and Margo won, hands down, by unanimous vote among the three of us. We all independently agreed that hers are just about perfect.
Bellecour does a fairly decent job, but theirs rate as a distant second to Margo's. Others were pleasant but nothing beyond the workaday. Furthermore, Margo charges considerably less than her competition. When I asked her about that price discrepancy, she said that she keeps her prices lower out of concern for her customers. Good golly! What more could one ask for?
A lovely bakery with friendly service. The pastries are not only delicious but also priced very well! I'll be back!

I ordered a cake from here for a birthday, and although the look of the cake was perfect (the attention to detail was so cute and she made sure the cake looked exactly like the inspo picture), but the cake itself was SO dry and hard to get down. The only thing stopping me from throwing it away was how much I paid for it. Basically the only way it makes sense to order here is if you don’t care about the taste.
