    Strawberry Napoleon
    Andrew D.

    The service here is always a cut above. Yes it's a chain, but in my mind I group it as a better fast casual chain, with in some respects even better quality ingredients and seating. Their coffees are great, especially the French Roast and Mochas. Their baguette is likely the most underrated in Metro Atlanta. I enjoy dining on their French Dip and Roasted Turkey sandwiches as well as their Holiday Feast whenever it's available in November and December. They staff are all seasoned and must have been there for many years. This is a true rarity in the industry. I enjoy the great care that they offer their customers. I'm here frequently.

    Sad day for Madeline. They got rid of their sea salt baguette and instead replaced with a croissant I asked about it and they said that, indeed, the sea salt baguette has been discontinued. La Madeline is dead to me

    After passing by la Madeleine soooo many times we finally decided to stop by for a late lunch. The food is OKAY. It taste good, but it's just not fresh. Service is okay as well. Not much interaction with staff other than ordering food in the counter, then they deliver to your table but service could be better. We tried: Chicken Cordon Bleu Baked Pasta: Gruyere, white cheddar and Parmesan cheese sauce over penne, chicken and diced ham. The better one out of the two entrees we tried, at least served hot. Balsamic Glazed Salmon: Balsamic-glazed salmon with rice Provençal and steamed broccoli. Tasted okay, rice was mushy and unfortunately served cold. Strawberry Nutella Crêpe: Strawberries and cream topped with drizzled Nutella, shaved chocolate and whipped cream. Definitely the best thing we had here! The restaurant itself looks really nice and clean, and theres plenty of parking! ESPAÑOL Después de pasar por La Madeleine tantas veces, finalmente decidimos pasar a almorzar aquí. La comida es mas o menos. Tiene buen sabor, pero no es fresca. El servicio también es mas o menos. No hay mucha interacción con el personal, aparte de pedir comida en el mostrador y que luego te la traigan a la mesa, pero el servicio podría ser mejor. Probamos: Pasta al horno con pollo y cordon bleu: salsa de queso gruyere, cheddar blanco y parmesano sobre penne, pollo y jamón en cubitos. El mejor de los dos platos principales que probamos, al menos se sirve caliente. Salmón glaseado con balsámico: salmón glaseado con balsámico con arroz provenzal y brócoli al vapor. El sabor estaba bien, el arroz estaba blando y, lamentablemente, estaba super frío. Crêpe de Nutella y fresas: fresas y crema cubiertas con Nutella rociada, chocolate rallado y crema batida. Definitivamente lo mejor que comimos aquí! El restaurante en sí parece muy bonito y limpio, y hay mucho espacio para estacionar!

    I've driven past La Madeleine and it's always caught my attention so this morning I decided to check it out, The food here was good! It's very basic nothing too fancy! I give it a 3 not because it wasn't good just bc I most likely will not come back. They gave me my salad at the register and my food came out about 20 mins after The ambiance is nice in here it's very French

    Absolutely love this cafe! Their Ham and cheese croissant is so good! Their lattes and hot beverage drinks are absolutely delicious. The food is always fresh and hot, made quickly, and they the staff are nice. They have their own parking and inside seating. I have tried a little of everything from their menu and have not been disappointed yet.

    Terrible cooking today. Their highly rated French toast came looking like it was made by a child. Really heavy on the eggs, soggy, and not tasteful. Will NOT be ordering from here again.

    Coconut Cream Cake
    Ashley A.

    Not bad, but is it truly a French restaurant, no. It's basically the Panera of French cuisine, but I'm okay with it. The croque monsieur was in need of more ham and cheese, the flavor was there but the contents were scarce. The coconut cream cake was delicious and the salad had way too much dressing. Ordered the French dip to go and they forgot the au jus, which made it a very dry ordeal. The service was fast and their workers are really friendly though.

    Chicken la Madeleine with a large cafe latte. Healthy brunch option. The broccoli was bland

    I was tempted to try the blueberry cheesecake crepe, but it was a little too early for that. The service was good. Similar to Panera Bread, you get in line to order and take a number to sit down. The food will be brought out to you. We come here time to time typically for their coffee more than the meals.

    Stopped by here for a quick breakfast with friends before catching our flight home. Breakfasts run about $14 per person.. well with coffee. I enjoyed the layout of ordering your food at a counter and then having it brought out to you once ready. This way you don't have to additionally wait for a waiter to take your order in the first place. I ordered a palmier, which are commonly known to us as elephant ears and was handed it at the counter along with empty coffee cups to fill ourselves as a separate station. That elephant ear was light and flaky, sweet and delicious. Speaking of those four things, so was the croissant that came with your meal. Coffee was decent considering the specialty coffee machine was out of order...I could have gone for a latte. I ordered the Country French Breakfast - Two eggs cooked-to-order (I got scrambled), Potato Galette, bacon or sausage & a butter croissant. Actually I ordered two of these, one for my husband as well. One was supposed to have bacon, the other sausage. When they both came out with sausage, it was no bother and we just kept it. As another reviewer mentioned, you could tell the scrambled eggs were scooped out of a previously cooked container, not made-to-order as it said they would be. I don't know what the hell was in that potato galette, but it was absolutely delicious. All in all, this was a great spot for breakfast and the perfect send off from our trip down south.

    It has a relatively low rating but it's wayyyyy better than that for breakfast. In fact, the food is really good. Then again, I just get The American Breakfast, which for me is two scrambled eggs extremely well done, bacon, a croissant (French accent here), and something else but I don't remember what it is--despite being here twice. Yes, I brave the Georgia cold (no jacket/never a jacket) from a local hotel. I go through three parking lots, jump over a bush on a downhill slope, cross the street, then order American food from French people. It's quite an experience. I know I get a cookie to eat after but that's just a reward for my adventurous nature. Toast! That's what it is. Toast! Good toast! The reason for the 4 is two instances where the waiter-person (not sure if actually a waiter) wasn't friendly. However, everyone else who works here is super friendly--they even smile! So, maybe it wasn't the service. I think maybe it was that the eggs were super well done first time (a good thing) and slightly wet the second time (not good). Overall, recommended.

    It's a nice place

    The food is good. Really good. Downside? They didn't give us menus when we walked in. And there was a line. On a Sunday. Expected I'm sure. But they should've had somebody collecting the menus that people took to read, once they had their food ordered, so they could be placed back for others to see. It really held up the line when people didn't know what they wanted, like me. LOL. I ended up getting the French toast that was made out a cinnamon rolls. Super super sweet. But super super good. I also wish that they had a notice on the door or some thing that said they were out of specialty coffees like cappuccinos and macchiato's, because the machine was broken. That was one of the big reasons we came here, so I settled to have to go without coffee because I didn't feel like having American style. All in all it was a good experience. Again, super busy, but the staff was very helpful and nice.

    Avocado Toast
    Jane C.

    I love La Madeline but was disappointed with my recent visit.. I usually order an avocado toast and it has never looked like this. It had the thinnest spread of avocado I felt like I was eating straight bread.. highly recommend their fruit tarts and pasta! I love their avocado toast as well but it's not consistent. Cause I paid nearly $10 for this piece of bread?..

    Strawberries Romanoff Cinammon Bun French Toast
    Akira C.

    It was my first time visiting. The line to order was long. I believe I got there a little before noon or right at. *Customer Service: pleasant staff *The Food: I ordered the strawberry romanoff French toast. I feel like it was more like eating dessert rather than breakfast b/c it was a cinnamon roll.. which if that was the case I would've just ordered dessert. It wasn't very filling which was disappointing because I would've liked to leave full or with my stomach nicely satisfied and it wasn't. *overall: I probably would got back to try some of the lunch items. Those seemed to look better than the breakfast.

    Tasty food Healthy and delicious?

    The food is good and simple. This is not a 5 star restaurant but it gets the job done. About as healthy as any other place. Not fast food, the food is not fresh but frozen. Just like all corporate resturants.
