Reviews for La Bou Bakery & Cafe in Elk Grove, CA
Management addressed my concerns and offered a redo. Cobb salad was not made right especially for $14 bucks, I was... dissatisfied. So I was offered a complimentary redo, i got a house salad with herb chicken much better, will continue tosupport our local businesses. I appreciate the timely response from mgmt. Thank you Liz Read more
Horrible! Save your money and avoid at all cost. Food sucks. Service is even worse. very rude lazy management.
Noodles are no longer marinaded and salad is $1 more. I used to get the LaBou chicken salad once a week for lunch. The last two... times the noodles have not been marinaded. Today I asked about it and was told from now on it?s plain noodles. It pretty muchtastes like plain spaghetti on my salad. Not good. I?m pretty disappointed as it?s still pictured as marinaded noodles. If youknow this salad or the Asian noodle salad, you know the marinaded noodles are the best part. So sad to see another restaurant godownhill while charging more. Read more

Surprised the service was only fair. You have to warm your pastry yourself and they refused to serve cappuccino in a mug, which... they clearly have on the shelf. Food is good. Read more
I have always gone to La Bou and I never had this kind of reception. Last Thursday March 11, 2021 at 11:45, the bakery was empty... except for one black lady in front of me. I am black too. Well the woman behind the counter was on the phone, there was oneother person at the far end of the counter bringing in some types of pans. The woman on the phone never looked up, neveracknowledged us never said I will be right with you nothing, so myself and the woman in front of me continued to wait, I waitedfor 5 minutes and nothing from the woman. I had not been in this La Bou for some time because the last time I was there it wasowned by white people and they were always nice and respectable. I know it has been said that Asian people do not like blackpeople and I witnessed it first hand so if you are black don't go into that store, go to the one in West Sacramento. Read more
2nd time here so that's saying good things about this place. I'm new to this town so I've been trying out the food around and... this place made a great impression to me. Their breakfast sandwiches are great. However there menus need a lot to be desired.Well thier breakfast and menu is located on a machine not at all on thier main menu. Thier coffee is the best.

Irritated that the hours consistently change and they are not updated on any platforms (google, yelp, labou corporate website).... They are open later in the morning and close before 4 p.m. now, yet nothing is posted on this. Over the last year all pastries,including the hot bake croissants and hot sandwiches have gotten noticeably smaller in portion , yet price has increaseddramatically. This new food phenomenon is called ?Shrinkflation??what many businesses have utilized over the last few years inhopes we don?t notice. ???? Lame. Now instead of going 2-3 times a week, I visit once a month. If my youngest son didn?trequest it, I would have no reason to visit this business anymore. Read more
