    The 2nd trip back for dinner did not disappoint. I put Le Madeline up as one of the top 3 restaurants in Quincy for quality, innovative Vietnamese food in a modern hip setting. We got these dishes and they were all amazing. Highly recommend: - Grilled pork summer rolls - Bahn Koht shrimp coconut pancakes - Chicken Pho - Viet Cajun Crawfish noodles The dinner vibes are great. Perfect for date night or a special night out. Also not out of place with a family meal with kids. The prices are reasonable too for the higher end food and experience. Go try it!

    We had tried Le Madeline for dinner several years ago and loved it but wanted to come back for lunch to try their pho and it did not disappoint! It was snowing as a walked in and we were seated by one of the windows- pho tastes better while watching the snow and that's a fact. I got a large bowl of the Pho Dac Biet and it was loaded with all types of beef. There was a lot of thinly sliced beef, long pieces of tripe, soft pieces of tendon swimming in a delicious broth. I also ordered the Imperial Eggrolls which was stuffed with pork, shrimp, mushrooms and noodles. The eggrolls were fried golden and the filling was juicy and tasty. The service was very fast and we had our food within 10 minutes of ordering. Definitely coming back for more pho in the future!

    Returned here for dinner around 8:30PM Friday night. The place was packed and lively!! Service was fast despite the busy time. Kudos to the staffs!!! Ordered their shaking beef/bo luc lac and sticky chicken wings. Shaking beef came with broken rice, beef was tender and juicy. Flavor profile is rich and savory. Their wings are not breaded with batter but it retained the chicken's juiciness and the sauce is savory and sweet. Definitely recommend these dishes

    Pho dac biet

    Was excited to try this place base on influencers reviews. The decor of the restaurant was nice, felt more like a lounge than a pho restaurant. I already knew what I wanted. I came for pho. Decided on the dac biet as it's my go to for all pho restaurants. I use to speedy service, order my bowl and get it within 5 minutes. This one took longer felt like 15-20min. Something I'm not use to at a pho restaurant. I also tried to over a side of thinly sliced onions quickly drenched in vinegar. My waiter said ok. When the pho came it was accompanied by a sad plate of condiments and no onions like I asked. That's how I eat my pho, maybe it's a California thing. Now to the pho. It had a nice saltiness but not aromas of any spices. The broth fell flat. For a large there wasn't that much meat and the tendon were the size of dime.

    I took my parents here for dinner when they were visiting and it was a 'just ok' experience, marred more by the service than the food. It was on a Sunday night so understandably they were busier. But upon sitting down, it took a considerable amount of time to get our orders taken and water provided (which I had to flag down a waiter twice). I also realized after the fact that my server had given us one less menu which is why I didn't get to order pho or any of the traditional items. That said I did like about half the dishes I ordered. The good ones - beef carpaccio was very flavorful and the coconut cake with shrimp was very aromatic. Just ok - the crawfish noodles were fine, not too memorable. The not so good ones - shaking beef was marinated well but overcooked and difficult to chew and I definitely wouldn't recommend. I can't remember if it was escargot or some other conch shell fish but that one was just bad. The texture was tough and seemed overcooked.

    I've been dying to come here since they opened - love to see Vietnamese food getting elevated! We came on a weekend for lunch service - no reservation needed when we went, there were enough tables available for a walk-in. I started the meal with an iced vietnamese coconut coffee and some cha gio - the coffee was creamy but not too sweet or overbearing with the coconut flavor, and the cha gio were fresh out of the fryer-hot, the nuoc mam dipping sauce was well-balanced. We also got the Banh Khot and the Viet-Cajun crawfish noodles. The banh khot was so flavorful, again with some subtle coconut flavor, and it was so fresh and satisfying wrapping it up with the lettuce and herbs and dipping it in the nuoc cham. The noodles were also a hit - the garlicky savory flavor reminded me of some homecooked meal from the past, but elevated with the crawfish and the salmon roe. I would stick with the Le Madeline specials though - my OG Viet mom had the Bun Bo Hue and this was what she had to say about it: "No taste." She tells it like it is. The service was attentive but a bit on the slower side. I can see this place being quite the fun scene at night though, with the nice bar and the fun cocktails on the menu. Can't wait to come back for dinner!

    The service was way better than my last visit, and the prices were still on the higher side, especially for the portion, but everything we ordered was delicious. Due to the portion, we still ordered a pho at the end to satisfy our stomachs. Gỏi Vịt (Duck Salad) - The duck was good but the salad and dressing weren't my favorite and they should add more greens. Hàu Nướng Mỡ Hành (Grilled Oysters) - The Oysters were small but the sauce was good with a little spicy, but it kind of covered up the salty taste of the oysters. Cánh Gà Chiên Nước Mắm (Chicken Wings) - Juicy, crispy, and the sauce was just right, not too sweet. Bò Né (Dodging Beef) - Tender beef, but I prefer Saigon Chicken House in Dorchester more. Bánh Khọt (Coconut Pancakes) - They were delicious without wrapping the veggies and dipped in fish sauce. Việt Cajun Crawfish Noodles - Favorful, not as oily as last time. It's too bad that the lemongrass pork chop does not come with the crawfish noodles anymore. Phở Đặc Biệt* - Nothing special but a lot of meats. Updated... 3 of us got food poisoning thinking it was the duck salad since all the food was fully cooked except the duck and oysters. But one of my friend did not eat the oyster, definitely not from that. Duck breast was between rare and medium rare. We all vomit and still have no appetite even few days later.

    Portion: The portions are small for the price Taste: we liked 2 out of the 4 dishes we ordered! The duck salad was good! The banh khot was also good. The crawfish noodle has too little crawfish!! 98% of it was noodle. The popcorn shrimp was a joke lol! Service: it looked like the owner/chef put in a lot of effort and care in the food they serve Ambiance: This place has a bar, a newer concept in Vietnamese restaurant to attract a different group of clients.

    Le Madeline is becoming one of my favorite spots in the Quincy area. I came for dinner the first time I went but recently wanted to try their pho during lunch. It exceeded my expectations. The pho broth was so flavorful and fragrant and the meat and vegetables were fresh. They gave so many noodles too! I was surprised at how big the portions were. It was also nice that they put on the menu that it's GF for some peace of mind. Will be coming back soon!

    Việt Cajun Crawfish Noodles
    Adina B.

    This is the third time we've been here. The vibe is casual, comfy and the staff are always friendly. The food is outstanding. I dream about the crawfish noodles, creamy with an amazing umami flavor and the egg on top... yum! The French onion dip w/caviar was so good, in the end when we ran out of crips we were just eating it with a fork. The shrimp and grits were delish, and the turmeric coconut pancakes are always a favorite. The cheesecake was stellar - three of us fighting over the last bite and the the chocolate lava cake was everything you want in a lava cake but the dollop of kumquat mango chutney really leveled it up giving it a nice tangy balance. I love coming back to try new things - and of course for the crawfish noodles!

    JC C.

    tl;dr A absolutely wonderful experience made possible by highly enjoyable food but even so by the incredibly friendly and warm staff. FOOD: Don't sleep at all on the French onion dip. It was tangy, had the richness that you'd expect but raises to the next level with the caramelized onions and what seem like charred green onions and the Smoky umami flavor to it. The only nitpicks we had was that it was quite salty so it made it hard to go back in multiple dips in a row even though our eyes and hearts wanted to. That and the shrimp chips that came with were quite oily. Frankly, we could have just used a plain warm banh mi baguette as the ideal vehicle to get it into our faces. The lobster roll was a unique take on a lobster roll with fresh forward flavors. The addition of the herbs and greens helped it feel less heavy than the traditional rolls. Hard to say if it's better or worse - just different. The brioche bun was the ideal softness. The garlic noodles with crawfish craw'd into our brains throughout the email, as we kept on going back to the noodles given it's ideal texture of QQ and bounce. When you get a bite with the roe and chives combining with the noodles fresh = bliss. Pro tip, slather some of that french onion dip on the noodles and use that as the vehicle. You're taste buds will thank you. The Bo Luc Lac (shaking beef) had the most tender beef we've ever come across for this dish (here or in Vietnam). Flavor was on point as they didn't marinade or sauce it too sweet (a common issue we run across in the states for Western flavor profiles). Combine that with quality cut of beef used (that isn't too tough or chewy) and we've got a winner. The red cornish hen like rice was just fine so I'd actually see if you could just get plain white rice to let the beef flavor shine (or you know, just eat more noodles!) The banana cheesecake was a clever take on a traditional Che Chuoi dessert. Good dense texture to the cheesecake you definitely get the banana flavor. Make sure you like banana though cause it's not explicitly stated on the menu. SERVICE: But what made the meal feel full of love and care was our server. The server was incredibly friendly, patient, and was just so thoughtful. He answered all our annoying food questions with patience, went above and beyond to ensure my surprise birthday meal for my partner was indeed so, and made the dining experience feel special. Truly left no stone unturned. We can't wait till our next chance to come back.

We even inquired about their chili crisp (so addicting) and they were kind enough to answer. Above and beyond! Space is 5 stars too. Plenty of seating in the front (bright and airy) and a quiet area at the back (dark and cozy). You don't feel rushed with your meal. Food was a 3.5-4. Ca Phe Kem Pho Mai (Vietnamese coffee with salted foam) was delicious. Strong coffee with a sweet and salty taste. I could've eaten the foam with a spoon. The salmon toast wasn't bad but I would make a couple of changes (1) reduce the cream cheese - it looks good/aesthetic but overwhelms the flavor (2) sub the avocado paste to fresh avocado, it had a funny taste. The cookie dough croissant was good but the outer cover was too crispy, it didn't have the flakiness of a croissant. I also wish they would have some other substitutions for their banh mi like chicken or shrimp or tofu. Hopefully someday!

Even if the waitress was new, I have seen at other places where a more tenured staff would be with the new one during training to ensure smooth experience with the customers. It was not busy and there were a lot of waiters standing in the back so I am not sure where the mishaps came from 2) Food: at a pho restaurant, it is extremely hard to go wrong with pho! It is fundamental! Especially when we only asked for a kid pho (which is just broth and noodle)! The pho came out with the noodle clumped up, and when my daughter started eating it, the noodle was still hard (it means it was not cooked enough) The manager was very welcoming when we first came in, which signal to me they do care about their business. Unfortunately with the experience today, I will likely not come back!
