Unexpectedly good! I used to just pass by this restaurant because I thought they only sold pastries and baked goods. Thank goodness my son picked this restaurant today- the pumpkin soup, though pricey, was Dee-licious! Service was also great!
My go to place for sourdough bread, cookies and their german pretzel! Always consistent with their baked goods! No ample seating space but thats okay because its rare to see anyone really dining here! I have tried a few of their food for dine in but it’s not worth the price hence no one really dines!

Johnlu Koa was my professor in Business Policy at UP. Later, when I opened my first business venture, a burger stand, I got my buns from Globake, their family bakery in Kapitolyo. He went on his own and established French Baker and when he got everything in sync went upscale with Lartizan. Not too long ago, he entered the fashion scene by bringing in Van Laacke to Manila probably as a match to his wife's Escada.
Everything about Lartizan exudes high class. From the cutlery to the table setting to the ambience, it shows. Shiela, the store manager lives up to this by providing snappy, precise service. The environment in Century Mall could be a bit of a downer if you're trying to envision yourself at high tea but other branches like Ayala 30th will let you live your fantasy.
We unlocked our gold twice to order the Salmon en Croute in Mille-Feuille Pastry (P644) and got the Pan Seared Foie Gras in Mesclun Greens (P534) for free. We also had the Mushroom Melt, Brioche Loaf (P462) with the free (from zomato gold unlock) Scrambled Organic Eggs with Truffle (P368).
We simply love the hot from the oven complimentary bread basket they serve before the meal with real French butter.
The pan seared foie that went with the salad was rich and heightened the salad experience to a whole other level. The greens were fresh, crisp and beautifully presented. A drizzle of the honey-balsamic vinaigrette and you're off to salad dreamland.
Simple yet decadent was the champignon and melted cheese on brioche toast. Though seemingly thick, a slight press and it would easily give in to your gustatory intentions.
Details make a classy meal like the small raspberry jam bottle provided as the foil to the creamy and luscious scrambled eggs with truffle. The combination with a bite of toast takes you to breakfast at the Grand Palais with its lovely garden view.
A thousand folds would have made the puff pastry that enveloped the baked salmon with spinach and select micro veg on the side. A brush of the saffron and butter creamy sauce would let you appreciate and savor the morsels of a great day.
My teacher, my friend has gone such a long way.
Had the chance to try this fancy restaurant- the ambiance lifts up to its service.. food was great.. we were served with a basket of different slices of bread, and all are good with a slice of butter.
Tried their truffle mushroom soup, creamy with wild fresh mushrooms but not met my expectations, chicken sandwich was ok, but the lamb stew was a superb! It comes with mashed potato and steamed vegetables (requested over brown rice).. the meat is so tender and the sauce is good and flavorful.. its kinda pricey but luckily avalable through Eatigo app to get additional discounts. A must try for its food and service.
It was our first time to dine at Lartizan. The branch in century mall might be small and not very private but the service is impeccable.
We love the complimentary breads!!! You can opt for a refill if you want. 😊 Food is pricey but good. We specially love the chicken and meat ravioli. The salad wasn't worth the price and the salmon dish was unique but a bit fishy for our taste. Overall I'd recommend this restaurant for either an afternoon tea or a proper meal. The service is top notch. We enjoyed the discount with 1+1 zomato gold deal, making it 'sulit' for our meal! 👌

I’m giving it a high rating despite it being very pricey is because we got a good deal using our Zomato Gold apps with the buy 1 get 1 feature. (If you’re interested, just download the Zomato PH app then click on GOLD at the bottom and subscribe. You can get 20% off the annual membership fee, for example ₱560 instead of ₱700, when you input my referral code “RIALIT” in the payment section - you will see the discount reflected immediately).
We only paid ₱1,400 for 4 items and we were 3 pax. Two of us had Zomato Gold apps so we got 2 dishes for free (the 2nd and 4th highest priced ones).
We got the Salmon in puff pastry (around ₱664) and got the Roasted half chicken (₱615) for free then we paid for my favorite Chicken Vol Au Vent (₱545) and got the Honey Pumpkin soup with (a small piece of ) Foie Gras (₱477) for free. The food as always is delicious and of quality, not a lot but statisfying enough for 1 person per dish, and the plating is always beautiful.
And don’t forget that they serve amazing complimentary breads (and butter) which are freshly baked by them, of course.
This branch is verrrry small though and the Ayala 30th branch is way prettier but still gave it a 4 because it wasn’t packed (we were the only ones dining in, the rest were taking out breads) so we were comfortably seated on the couch plus the female server was attentive, pleasant and efficient. And if you get the right angle (and background) for a photo, it’ll still be instagram-worthy (despite the not so impressive looking facade because of the very limited space) since the wall ornaments are beautiful.
LARTIZAN
Lower Ground Floor, Century Mall
What I like about the place is that it looks so classy and clean. The decorations are so fancy and it feels like we've been to a palace or some place so exquisite. It was so exciting to see, we took a lot of selfies of course hahaha... Even if the place is open it quite feels so nice to be here, having an early morning chat (which we did).
SUNNY SIDE UP TWO ORAGNIC EGGS, WITH HOUSE JAM AND BUTTER 4/5
So we 2 eggs, 4 toasted breads, 2 butter and 1 mini bottle of raspberry jam. It was all good, though I have pictured out more of everything for its price hehe.
FRENCH TOAST 3/5
Hmmm too sweet for me. So many sauce which I felt I was drowning in sweetness, I should have asked for the sauce to be set aside instead, next time maybe.
I enjoyed the place... so sosyal! Haha
Nice little nook restaurant just by the supermarket entrance at Century City Mall’s lower level. I had the Chicken Vol-Au-Vent (php470), and a pot of Rouge Provence tea (php185). Complimentary bread basket with butter.
Taste-wise, it was rich and flavourful. Went well with the tea.
This is our go to place, the tea is by far awesome. We know the staff already by name and had tried all the items on the menu so far. Best place to have a moment of relaxation. Food and portions are good.

ROYALTY.
The interior of the place transports me to a palace in London or Paris. Everything, from utensils to the teapot cover, looks so classy and elegant. This is actually one of my go-to places whenever i'm down and craving for tea sets. This place instantly cheers me up because of the food and ambiance! The tea sets are perfection! One of my favorite teas here is the Marco Polo from Mariage Freres. It's best paired with something sweet.
Their 3 cheese alfredo shrimp pizza is absolutely the best! It's so cheesy and the thin crust is so crunchy. They also give a variety of breads for free which is a big big plus points!
In terms of service, the food was served hot and right on time (10-15) minutes. Their crew are friendly and polite, which is one reason why i always visit this tea place. However, from my last visit, I didnt really like their onion soup because it was quite salty and was lacking the cheesy taste. Also, it didnt look quite appealing and appetizing. Fortunately for me, this isn't quite much of an issue and I'll still come back for more Lartizan experience.
Final Verdict: YES YES AND YES! Please take time to visit this place and have an afternoon tea.
