Love this little French piece of heaven! Reminds me of a French Cafe in Paris not because of the way it looks particularly - moreover the baking. The baked goods are absolutely exquisite! Did I mention they have gourmet chocolates? Great place to have authentic French pastries and a cup of coffee. read more

I came here to get some Macaron's they had a huge selection. I was greeted by a gentleman that explained the whole store, since I told him it was my first time there. Nice selection of wines as soon as you come in. They have croissants, baguettes and breads, chocolates, desserts and ice cream. I order a ham and cheese croissant that they heated in the oven and some macaroons. read more

The desserts tasted better than they looked. At the store, the products looked dried up in the display cases. But they actually tasted pretty good at home! I'd recommend the "crunch". Charlotte rouge? Not so much. The store logo is not well displayed outside the store. Look for a large "French bakery" sign instead. read more

So this review I'm writing is solely dedicated to the macaroons! As of a couple months ago, I somewhat went through this phase of being completely obsessed with macaroons. It was weird but I embraced it! I kept looking for places that weren't too expensive and that was in the south miami area and behold I found this place. Honestly, I'm not extremely knowledgeable when it comes to macaroons but what I do know is these are not stiff and they're good! My ABSOLUTE FAVORITE one is the rose flavored one, which is apparently their most popular flavor. I've tried almost every flavor except for their chocolate orange one, lemon one, coconut one, caramel one, and pistachio one. But I've had all the rest of the flavors and they're all incredible! read more

I work across the street from the shopping center where this is located and I love it. They have so many options, even gluten free options which is hard to find. The products are always fresh and they have a wide selection of pastries and macaroons to choose from. read more

Great Groupon wine tasting! My boyfriend came here a few weeks ago for a wine tasting and it was great! It was a small group of 6 which was perfect and we learned a lot about wine. They gave us 6 different wines with samples of different food and dessert to pair. Overall a great experience we will definitely be coming back for more tastings. They even give you a discount on the wine to purchase after the tasting read more

Went there yesterday after work. A cute place! They sell wine, too! We bought the macarons (pistachio, chocolate, caramel, coconut, coffee). I love the chocolate, but didn't like the caramel. My friend loves the pistachio and likes the coconut. The coffee, we split. It was okay. But the chocolate is the one I woild buy again. They have a lot more flavors. Then we got the 3layer chocolate cake and the Napoleon chocolate. It was okay. Will have to try other ones. Will definitely come back. read more

Wow just Wow! This bakery is amazing. I cannot believe the incredible array of items. They have everything from cakes, individual desserts, to breads and croissants. Next, there is ice cream, soup, food, wines, etc. The list is really endless! I fear when I go there my eyes are always bigger than what I can eat. Never fear everyone is so very nice they always fix a box of goodies for me to take home. So far... my favorite is the Charlotte Rouge Ind. , second is the Layer Chocolate Ind. The Lavazza coffee is really delicious. I can't wait to go back and try something else. The only thing I was not thrilled about was the prices. they seemed too steep. read more

I'm just gonna review the taste of this one cake that I think everyone in the entire world needs to eat: Carré Three Layer Chocolate! This cake is a chocolate lovers dream, but even if you didn't like chocolate, you will be won over by this cake! There is a chocolate cake base, with layers of different chocolate cream/mousse in the middle, and then topped with a chocolate ganache. When you think that should be good, it is topped/surrounded by macarons. This bakery is pretty darn good, that my friend who now lives in San Francisco (where I'm sure there are good bakeries too) says she misses their goodies. That says a lot! If this is the standard for their other offerings, i will definitely be a fan! read more

This lil French Gem is amazing. Their croissants are a must to try. You can find a little bit of everything in this place. From a good selection of wine and champagne to sandwiches and truffles. Looking to get someone a treat? Drop by here you can always find something decadent and unique. Prefect for breakfast, lunch, or a treat! read more

Very nice place! Love the bakery display and super friendly staff! Macarons are delicious and have different colors and flavors. I got two boxes of 8, one to give as a gift and the other for myself. I saw they have wine, will have to come back to check out wine and enjoy more desserts. read more

What a disappointment! We have tried three times now to make reservations for their wine tasting. We have a Groupon for it and we cannot use it. We just arrived for the wine tasting only to be told it was cancelled. "Sorry, call Groupon". Will never come here again. Thanks for the comment. We did have reservations. You cancelled the class without calling us. We drove over an hour to get there and had to pay for a babysitter. Thanks for nothing. read more

This is my go to place for breakfast my husband and I started refering to it like "The French place" I get my almond croissant warm crunchy filled with an almond purée and a flavorful cappuccino my husband who does not have my sweet tooth gets a sandwich with pesto sauce and prosciutto.For patisseries I would go for the almond tarte and as for teas the sencha one is my favorite. This place is a most if you are a sucker for quality bread and desserts. read more

Great staff. Always with a smile and helpful. The Almond Croissant is my favorite. Try it!! The employees have been there for ever. Is a good feeling to see people every morning that you know. read more

A small and cozy bakery. I had croissants, coffee, and wine during visit and enjoyed all of it. A gem in the Pinecrest area.

My favorite coffee, croissant, sandwich shop in Pinecrest. Great coffee, pastries, sandwiches, cakes as well as a pretty good wine selection. A good choice any day. read more

I don't know why I've never been to this place when I was living in Miami and it was only 5 min away from my place...Anyway, I had the chance to go back to Miami last week and tried this French pastry. I have to say it becomes my favorite pastry shop in America and I was very upset that they only have locations in Miami. I did not order much since I went there after lunch. My absolute favorite is "Ivory" which is creme brulee mousse filled with mango and passion fruit creme. It was not overly sweet and very fresh! I also love their apricot croissant which is better than the plain IMO. I'm not a big fan of the almond croissant but my husband raved about it. Tried 4 different flavors of macarons: coffee, passion fruit, pistachio and caribbean. They are ok but not so memorable. I can find macarons of same quality in NYC. But their cakes and other desserts all looked so pretty and delicious. read more

the best almond croissants you will ever try !!!! along with the amazing baguettes they have. this place is a must try!

Purchased a Groupon wine tasting for this place and boy did we love it! Our sommelier Victoria Zorelo was so fun! We tasted 6 wines & some bubbly. We enjoyed a plate filled with delicious samples of their pastries & desserts! What a fun #badmoms night out! Totally recommend the wine tasting & ALL their goodies! read more

Everything is usually good about this place! Great tasting food and deserts a long with the wine choices. you are greeted as soon as you walk in the door and always served with a smile. EXCEPT today 6/15/17, Thursday at 12:00pm. There was two young ladies working there today. One was too busy on her phone and the other had an attitude about everything she was asked. When the order was ready, she got upset because it was a to go order and she prepared it for in house. Then she simply held her hand out as if people are supposed to be starring at her waiting for her to finish. No manners or customer service. If you come here, don't go Thursdays at lunch time. Because they are terrible employees. Advise to management: Remind them the reason they work there is to help you. Praise: Your food and usual customer service is incredible! I am not one to eat deserts other than cookies. But your deserts are delicious! Great and amazing job! read more

Do not come here if you are diabetic/sugar intolerant. Do not come here if you're trying to lose weight. Do not come here if you want to try " just one little thing". If you do not heed my warnings, you will 1) get yourself into a sugarcoma..a happy, blissful coma which you might not ever recover from, but it will be the sweetest, most delicious coma ever. 2) the wheels of the diet wagon will break under you, but it's okay, cause your fall will be broken by the sound of your "oooh" and "mmm" as you chew your pastries. 3) try more than just "one little thing" and not feel an ounce of guilt over it. I found this place through the Yelp app while searching local bakeries by Dadeland, and I swear, it's discoveries like this one that make me kiss the Yelp app on my touchscreen. You walk in and the scents are all warm loving and welcoming. The entire left side is dedicated to French wines of many varieties, as well as a refrigerated section with various cakes, cremes, and profiteroles ( cream puffs) that are begging to be smushed into your mouth. Then you come across their baked delicacies : crusty, golden, airy croissants, some filled with chocolate, some dusted with almonds. The croissants just crumble into your mouth at first bite, leaving evidence of bliss all around your lips. Bread pudding, little puff clouds of brioche that simply just melt onto your tongue on the first bite, and sweet, crunch Palmiers await your consumption with a nice, dark espresso. oh. and the macaroons? Yeah.. Try..TRY TO HAVE JUST ONE. I DARE YOU. With another small refrigerated section of chocolate filled eclairs, tarts, and mouse filled pieces of dessert heaven, expect nothing but satisfaction for your tastebud's sweet desires. read more

Among my mom's many talents, hosting dinner parties, cooking in general and scouring the city for the finest and most epicurean purveyors are among her top strengths. To add to her shortlist of go-to bakeries, Atelier Monnier has taken over at number one. This French bakery gets it really right. The Parisian macarons color the display case with the kind of brights Polo might envy. Cassis, raspberry, rose petal and endless other esoteric and straightforward flavors line the shelves. The absolute perfect gift could be the assorted box. I had the rose petal and melted with delight. We boxed up the Saint Honoré mini cake for dessert. This delicate cream puff pastry was perfection. To top it all off, we sampled the dry rosé and took home a bottle. Atelier Monnier helped make a toothsome and homemade dinner that much more delectable. read more

This place is EXQUISITE. I purchased a Groupon for a wine tasting sesh with the lovely and very knowledgable Patrick! This experience was amazing; great wine selection, pastries and deserts. There was nothing negative about this visit to Atelier Monnier; service and quality of food were impeccable. I highly recommend the Croque Monsieur and veggie quiche on the savory side and the Charlotte Rouge and Caneles on the sweet side! Oh and of course the macaroons! read more

Just Like Tania, I discovered this little piece of sweet heaven at fairchild chocolate festival. Unfortunately, the macaroons were gone (gasp)...but the chocolate rochers, the orange almond chocolate pieces & mousse were excellent. Can't wait to go & try more. The chef & the lady working the stand were also very pleasant. The chef told me he can make the macaroons (any color) or chocolates for weddings or any events. Tres fantistique! read more

This is a treasure of Pinecrest -- a top class, true French bakery/patisserie and wine shop. The atmosphere is likewise super pleasant, with lovely smells, a family table for eating in-shop, and racks of wine manned (at least our last three times) by basically an in-staff sommelier to advise you. The croissants are insane: flaky, buttery, firm. Even the next day they hold up like champs. They also come with a really exceptional almond and chocolate filling -- which is all the better since its a fairly rare combination (usually it being either chocolate OR almond). My wife also assures me the macarons are great, if a bit pricey. I trust her judgement on this, as I'm a macaron philistine since I don't particularly enjoy them. A special note on the sommelier is that he is really helpful and friendly, and completely avoids being a wine snob while knowing his stuff. And he's able to adjust speaking to you in ways that are understandable no matter your "wine IQ". I might also note that the staff is pretty universally actually French and/or European. I feel like I just re-entered Brussels everytime I step inside. Highly recommended. read more

The service was great, got a FREE macaron and it was delicious. A variety of different wines. Highly recommend this place.

I was looking for a place like this after visiting Paris. I went in early in the morning to try and catch freshly made pastries. I ordered the Mille Feuille, Chocolate Napoleon, Saint Honore, and the Chocolate Almond croissant. The Saint Honore is filled with cream and covered with a crunchy coating of caramel and topped with whipped cream. Mille Feuille has two layers of cream and the crunchy layers are really good. The Chocolate Napoleon has a nutty chocolaty taste with a crunchy layer of chocolate and mouse. The pastries/sweets I got were very good and I highly recommend anyone to try them. I also got a French baguette but I must have gotten it hours after it was made because it was already getting a bit hard. The bread tasted good and it's definitely much better than what I get at Publix. There're seats and a couch to relax so you can sip a cup of coffee or a glass of orange juice. The store has a good selection of French wines with ratings. read more

I came here for the wine tasting and did not expect to have such fabulous food and desserts! They have an in-house sommelier and their foods/pastries are made fresh daily. The tasting was so delicious and fun that I signed up for another one.The salmon salad and quinoa salad served during the tasting was superb. I would love to buy that stuff in bulk. I've come in and gotten the pastries from time-to-time. The staff are very friendly, knowledgeable and do not mind explaining every item. I believe the front of the house staff are also the bakers but I could be wrong. Hands down, they have the best croissants and macaroons in town. They are worth every penny and calorie. I personally love the almond croissant as well as the mushroom croissant (I don't even like mushrooms!) They also sell great wines at every price point. read more

So I love this place. They have great crossaints, flacky incedible looking pastries and tons of sweets. However after discovering JoAnna's I gotta say, I like their pastries better. So then why the fivestars? Because Atelier still has REALLY good pasteries but more than that they have a great little wine selection and stupefyingly good sorbet. Like heaven melting in your mouth! Plus sandwiches, cakes and coffee...yummmm! read more

I just tried this place for the first time. Upon walking in, I was greeted by a nice older gentleman who told me he was a sommelier. He let us try a some wines. I wasn't expecting wine or a wine tasting at a bakery...what a pleasant surprise! They have some nice wines here. We had the croque monsieur and the salmon sandwich. Both were so good. They heated them up for us so that we could eat them there. We also tried the chocolate almond croissant, which was divine!, the praline pastry called Paris a Brest (also delicious) and a millefeuille, which was so fresh. They had a nice variety of breads. I got an epi bread to go. The sommelier told us that they have wine tastings with small plates at 6pm at both of their locations on different days. I can't wait to check it out. This place is a French jewel in the middle of a Dadeland shopping center, of all places. I'm so happy to have found this place :) read more

This has to be our new-favorite place! We have been wanting to try it out and see what everyone was talking about for a while until we finally did last two Sundays ago. Everything we order, from the quiches to the sandwiches to my favorite - the Ham and Cheese Croissant was excellent! We have been back to this place 5 times since our first visit in the past two weeks. We have been here for lunch during the week (when the place is not crazy busy as every other place is on the same shopping center), we have been here for breakfast on the weekend as well as for a mid-afternoon sorbet and pastry on Saturday. All of their pastries, sandwiches and sweets are super fresh and delicious. The sorbet is to die-for, my favorite is the Mango flavor. Another wonderful thing this place has is his owner Patrick and the super friendly staff! Everyone is eager to help you as soon as you walk through the door. Patrick is very passionate about his wines, sorbet and pastries and will take the time explain you all the different options you are faced with as well as to let you try them before ordering. The also have wine and treats tastings every other week for $15. Definitely worth the try! read more

I have had this place bookmarked for a long time and finally decided to try it recently. The place is very cozy and inviting. It has a long picnic style table and some large chairs with wine boxes serving as center tables, all very cool. And the best part, they have a huge counter full of delicious goodies. Is our turn to order and, as usual, I want to order one of everything and, as usual, my girlfriend refrains me from doing so. We go for one of the quiches Lorraine, ham and cheese croissant, a canele, a ham and brie sandwich and a turkey sandwich, and two lattes. The sandwiches were fantastic. You know those sandwiches made with baguette that when you bite into them it hurts your mouth because the bread is too toasted and not fresh, well....these weren't it. The baguette was so crisp and soft and worm. My girlfriend loved the turkey sandwich, it was fresh and the lettuce and tomatoes in the sandwich were seasoned so they actually added flavor to the sandwich and not just pieces of vegetables thrown in the middle of two pieces of bread. I loved the ham and brie, not only was tasty and creamy but it lather in mustard and mustard seed, so delicious. The quiche was exceptional. So fluffy inside and toasty and flaky outside. And you can actually taste the different flavors of the egg and the cheese and the buttery crust and the beautiful symphony they make mixed in your mouth. The canele was a beautiful end to the meal. Sweet and toasty, hard to describe you just have to try it. Now, I left the best for last. The croissant. The fact that they won "Best Croissant" in the Miami New Times Best of should be reason enough to believe they are good, but oh no, you have to try them. We had the ham and cheese croissant and in the words of my beautiful girlfriend "The best croissant she has ever had." This piece of buttery perfection was so decadent and moist, and flaky. I can not stress enough the importance of the flakiness in a croissant. After finishing such an amazing meal we had long chat with Patrick, the owner, who had previously helped us with our selection of goodies. We told him that the croissants were the best we have ever had, including the ones we had in Paris. He told us that they use only fresh ingredients which I can testify, it comes through in their excellent products. Highly recommend everyone paying a visit. read more

AHHHHH! Theres nothing really to say about this place but the fact that everything you buy is delicious! It is a small location across US1 from the Dadeland South Metro stop. They have baked goods, sandwiches, tea, coffee etc and a wonderful wine selection. If you go please pick up an Almond Croissant. It is rich, buttery and doesn't have the heavy flavor one could image with a nut base. Definitely an upgrade from just a plain old croissant. I will gladly eat anything that comes from this place and when my mom brings a bag home carrying their insignia I can't control myself. read more

My sister who lives in Miami introduced me to this little bakery and I'm glad she did. They have really good sweets and very nice tea. I tried a couple macaroons and fell in love. Not that pleased with the rose petal.. tasted more like strawberry (had it at other macaroon stores prior). Besides the fact that its pretty pricey I will return. They ambience was so adorable and one of the things that sold me. Good find. read more

I had seen this bakery around town at the UM farmers market as well as the Coral Gables farmers market, but I never stopped by. I went to the retail store today in hopes of finding some macarons even half as good as the ones I had at Bouchon Bakery years ago. First of all, I was greeted very warmly by the girl behind the counter and she was very patient while I decided what I wanted to try. She even gave me a free sample of a little puff pastry that was light and fresh. I settled on a chocolate croissant, raspberry tart, and a 12 count box of macarons. I was nicely surprised when I got home with my baked goods and I found three of the puff pastries as a bonus in the same bag as my chocolate croissant! Each of the items was even better than I expected. Although I have only tried one macaron so far, the caramel one was amazingly flavorful and just the right texture. The chocolate in the croissant was perfect and the pastry part was buttery and flaky. I can't wait to go back and try the sorbet/gelato next time! I can't recommend this place enough! read more

A lot of people had been recommending Atelier Monnier to me randomly whenever I would mention my love of macarons (there are not many things us gluten free kids can enjoy), so I decided to finally give it a whirl. First off, staff is SO nice. This doesn't happen often in South Florida, so it definitely put a smile on my face and made the entire experience that much more pleasant. The girl behind the counter did a really good job of helping me choose which macarons I should try, and I have to say that the rose petal was my absolute favorite, followed by caramel. Although they are not Laduree quality, these macarons are the best I have tried in the area by far. I also really liked their cozy space and was intrigued by their wine selection (which was categorized by events like "wedding" or "pool party", which I found to be really cute). I will definitely be back - this is the perfect place to pick up contents for a romantic picnic! read more
