Reviews for Maison Parisienne - French Café in Chicago, IL
Great brunch special! Get a sandwich or quiche, pastry, and coffee! I got the tomato and goat cheese quiche which was... phenomenal. Great texture and flavor, and it comes with a side salad! I also got the almond pear tart which has a wonderfulflavor and texture. For the coffee I got an iced coffee with the peach flavor, which was just sweet enough and added a fruityhint to the coffee. The service was quick and very friendly. Good seating options with couches and chairs next to the windows.Will be back next time I'm in Chicago! Read more
I would recommend trying it yourself and go for the savory pastries over the sweet. Specific impressions - tomato and goat... cheese quiche was tasty but definitely light on the tomato. The crust texture was pretty soggy/greasy, not terrible but itdidn’t have the crisp crust I was hoping for. Almost like it was microwaved when heated. Maybe it was? But I still enjoyed it.The macarons are alright, better than the average but a bit overly sweet to my palate. Salted caramel tastes like caramel only,no saltiness. Passion fruit and lemon are great. Vanilla is just sweet, I don’t taste vanilla to be honest. I’ve also gottenthe almond pear tart at the Lincoln Park location and while the tart crust was perfection, the tart was too sweet for me. So Iwill definitely be back, but I will focus on the savory options moving forward. Read more
Tasty croissants but the baguette sandwiches were a bit hard to eat because of the baguette. The coffee was great and they... didn't skimp out on the cheese in the danish or the chocolate in the croissant. Overall good food, friendly service, and not toolong a wait. Read more
A little more pricey then I would have liked. The food was good. A little lacking in the service, the guy taking our order... didn't know the difference between green tea and jasmine tea. The orange juice was from concentrate but priced like freshsweeze. Read more
Quick place to get coffee and a delicious pastry. Had their chocolate almond croissant and it was very good!
I loved everything about this place! Cute little neighborhood cafe. Delicious food and friendly service. Ordered their chocolate... croissant and croque monsieur. I've tasted plenty of croissants, but these were so flakey and amazing. I'll be back again verysoon. Read more
We were on a short vacation in Chicago and ended up having breakfast at this place everday. The baguettes are so delicious, they... reminded me of a holiday I spent in Nice. The croque monsieur was also yummy, and the French roast coffee was just the way Ilike it. The space is lovely, staff is attentive and I can't recommend this place enough. Read more
Had a chai latte, broccoli and cheese quiche and an almond chocolate croissant. The chai latte was wonderful, although I'm not... used to it being topped with cinnamon lol. The broccoli and cheese quiche was one of the best I've had. But the real star wasthe croissant. I honestly wish I could get one every day it was so good. Read more
