Parking: free, street parking Maison Alyzée has two locations : Mountain View and Burlingame. Founded in 2018 by Lyon native Laurent Pellet. Fun fact: Alyzée" is the name of the owner's daughter. It boasts marble counters, bistro-style tables, and outdoor seating on Castro Street to mimic the South of France. The owner recruited pastry chefs who relocated from France specifically for this endeavor. They also have monthly flavor, for example for May 2026: "Strawberry Bliss" cake. I totally recommend: mixed berry tart, coffee eclairs. The cakes and pastries are on the higher end price, perfect to surprise someone's birthday or special occasion or even to brighten your day with high quality artisan bakeries goods. read more

Really lovely French style patisserie with a variety of flavors and textures of pastries and cakes! One of my go to's for higher end cakes during special occasions :D Owners and chefs and staff are all very sweet and accommodating and you can tell they genuinely love their craft and sharing it with the community! They have rotating seasonal items and also accept ordering larger cakes through online orders or by calling in! Their 100% pistachio cake is amazing - not too sweet and the pistachio flavor really comes through but doesn't overpower. Very creamy texture that isn't too heavy and has a fun, crunchy outer shell. The matcha raspberry is also nice and balanced - matcha flavor complements well with the raspberry gel / jam inside and is mellowed out by the cream. Inside is very chic and great place to chat and catch up over a cup of coffee and even get some work done - water station and wifi is inside. read more

Maison Alyzee - 100% Pistachio - Bakeries Near Me - Mountain View, California

I came by the Chinese bakery but they were closed. Maison Alyzee was next door and had no line. It was the first time I could go in easily and see a full line of desserts they had. I love desserts and the French are number one in that category. I came from Yutori after buying so much that I squeezed in Madison's dessert, Padova Mandarin Yuzu. The clerk said it needs to refrigerate promptly or else eat right away. I had no choice but to stop by the library's park and eat that along with my tuna egg sando from Yutori. The Yuzu dessert was cool and refreshing. It's good to pair with tea. I'll have to come back and try more desserts. They all look so good to try. read more

I got a chance to try some of the pastries from Maison Alyzee because some were brought into work. I tried the savory pastry which was had ingredients similar to that of a pizza. The pastry was flakey and buttery. The chocolate Croissant was just as buttery and flakey with a sweet chocolate filling. I am looking forward to visiting the bakery and check it out personally now that I sampling of what they have to offer. read more

Came by for some pastries the other day and it was a decent experience. After spending some time in Paris where bakeries are on every other street corner, I had high hopes! Their desserts looked great and were rather pricey, compared with Paris. The quality of the pastries were ok, although the ones in Paris were much much better. Staff were friendly and cordial. read more

Downtown Mountain View is a great area to window shop and walk around to try new spots. I was able to drop by Maison Alyzee because of their pastries. I recommend knowing what you want before getting in line since you pick out pastries on the spot. The workers were super friendly and quick to pack our order. They were sweet to also helped us set up a table (outdoor seating)! We ordered the Passiano, Coffee Eclair, Matcha Raspberry, Lemon Tart, and Pistachio Cake. All of the desserts were yummy and easy to share. I definitely recommend the Matcha Raspberry. I would visit again and try other pastries! read more

My daughter is visiting from Seattle, and she and my niece and I went to dinner in downtown Mountain View last night, and my niece wanted to purchase dessert items for us afterwards. Wow! Not only was it very busy at 6 PM on a Friday night, but the staff was super friendly, and they brought our items to our table outside. We cut everything in thirds. The Signature Chocolate Tart was very dense and fudgy and had a very fine layer of crushed hazelnuts that you really couldn't see but you could could enjoy the texture difference. A tiny flake of gold on top really made it classy. The Lemon Custard Tart was beautiful. Very light, not too sweet, and had a beautiful lemon tang which we all loved. A nice thin crust as well. The Pecan Cinnamon Roll was nice, but it was a tad on the dry side. It was thick and the top was sticky and yummy, but I feel like the interior could've been a little bit more moist. Maybe put some of that sticky stuff in there, lol! All in all, it was wonderful and we will be back. read more

We Ordered this to go, and it was a treat; I personally loved the pistachio tart; and my husband loved their coconut pineapple tart and chocolate passion. They were all sweet, and rich, but delicious for a once in a while indulgence treat. The chocolate for me was 4/5; super unique Coconut pineapple tart was 3.5/5 Pistachio 5/5 but it's rich and heavy! Overall great spot read more

Maison Alyzee - "Signature" Coffee Eclair Matcha Raspberry - Bakeries Near Me - Mountain View, California

I finally stopped by this bakery after dinner after passing by so many times and am glad I did! Overall, if you are looking for a spot that serves high quality desserts that look fancy, this is a great option. The interior is small and gives a Parisian aesthetic and would be a cute spot to grab a coffee and pastry with a friend. Matcha Raspberry: as someone who doesn't like desserts too sweet, I really enjoyed this. The matcha cake was really moist and light at the same time. The raspberry jam was super tart and thus some might think it was overpowering in comparison to the matcha, but I did think it was a nice punch. The matcha cream on top was my favorite. It was super light and surprisingly had a strong, deep matcha flavor. This was my favorite of the 3. Coffee eclair: I thought that this would be my favorite as a coffee lover but it fell a little flat for me. The cream smelled more strong in coffee flavor than it actually tasted. The pastry was also a bit dense and soft, which was probably attributed to the time of day so I don't fault them for that. I would be willing to try this again but overall it wasn't my favorite. Tiramisu: I love tiramisu but admit that it can be very rich and too sweet at times but I was so surprised with this one. The best description for it was that it was very light in texture (almost cloud like) which was definitely welcomed. It also wasnt too overpoweringly sweet. I do wish that the coffee flavor was more pronounced. It mostly just tasted a lot like chocolate and cream. Be careful of the cocoa powder in top though! I definitely almost choked . This was my second favorite. I would definitely be interested in trying out their other desserts and look forward to that in the future :) read more

It's pretty rare to find a café in this area that stays open late, so I really appreciate their hours. Most places around here close surprisingly early -- sometimes as early as 4 or 6 p.m. -- so it's nice to have somewhere you can still go in the evening. The pastries are absolutely beautiful, almost too pretty to eat. Everything is carefully made and displayed, which makes choosing just one so hard. There's a calm, peaceful atmosphere, and time seems to slow down here. It's such a cozy, comfortable place to relax. read more

Normally I am a fan of Maison Alyzée. But today's experience at the Mountain View California location was a little disappointing. Too many dirty tables. With the rest of the tables filled inside and out. I could forgive the table bussing. I find it harder to overlook the old, poorly maintained, crystalized honey. The chef could have taken care of the issue before the left. Doing a simple container submersion into a pan of hot water. I am aware the honey is still edible. But Maison Alyzée is as much about the presentation, as it is the baking. That hone should have be taken care of , one way or another. The croissant itself was good. read more

Madison Alyzee is a nice place to pick up desserts for a partner for a special occasion. The desserts themselves have 10/10 presentation, and the taste is nearly up to par. The service is also fast, even if the line is long. I only knock it down to 4 stars as their macaroons are substantially too sweet, and I couldn't finish them. read more

Croissants. Cakes. Pastries. General happiness. That's basically what pops into my head the moment the name Maison shows up. Once in a blue moon, my wife gets this very specific craving for something delicate, light, and delightfully sweet craving. Conveniently, this time it lined up with her birthday. Perfect timing... and also high stakes. I knew one thing: I was not about to show up with a "common neighborhood cake" for her special day. She would've murdered me (lovingly... but still). Franchise bakeries are fine, but they're not exactly "special occasion, core memory" vibes. So I teamed up with my partner-in-crime (aka my daughter) and we decided to go with Maison. Also, side note: the last three months of the year in our family are basically "Birthday Season," so we've had enough cake to qualify as professional tasters. If we're doing another cake, it better be worth it. We ordered a matcha raspberry cake and a mini Christmas log, then went to pick them up. And of course... I couldn't resist. I'm a simple man. Give me a really good croissant, and I will instantly become loyal. So I also pickup, in addition to the order: - plain croissant - triple chocolate croissant - truffle & cheese pastry - ham & cheese croissant Now here's the fun part: I didn't even get to try any of it. I managed to enjoy exactly one thing, the aroma of freshly baked pastry during the drive home. That's it. The moment I walked in, I blinked... and suddenly everything vanished from my countertop like a pastry magic trick. All that remained were crumbs. Crumbs. Thanks to my kids and my wife. I shed a single tear of disappointment for the croissants I loved but never got to know. The cake though? Absolutely worth it. Delicate, balanced, and flavorful; the fluffy cake, the sweetness, the bright raspberry acidity, and that slight matcha bitterness all worked together like a tiny dessert orchestra. It was rich without being heavy, and fancy without trying too hard. Staff are always friendly and helpful. The store layout is a bit tight, so ordering/pickup can feel a little cramped, but it's a small tradeoff for the quality. Overall: thank you, Maison, for making my wife's birthday dessert feel special... while I quietly grieve the loss of the croissants I never got to eat. read more

Maison Alyzee - Matcha raspberry - Bakeries Near Me - Mountain View, California

Perfect spot for a date where you get desserts while sipping coffees and watching people. The place could get crowded very quickly but the line moves quickly with staff constantly working to pump out the orders. I got the matcha raspberry and passion berries. They both look gorgeous. If you select dine-in options they will bring it to your table. The passion berries was a little too sour to my taste. But the matcha raspberry was really good, the cream was on spot with the intensity of matcha and sweetness level. The cake sponge was little too dry and hard, but I will give it a pass. Their hot chocolate was also really thick! Not like a regular hot chocolate from the U.S. There's parking garage nearby that you can park for free and start roaming around this area. Would definitely come back for other items read more

For the 2025 holidays, they had mini buche mousse cakes for $14 each, and they are fantastic: - 4.9/5: The chocolate buche has a great bittersweet flavor, plus a nice layer of crunch. It's rich but not too rich. - 4.7/5: The berries-buche mouse cake has a nice combo of mousse texture and jelly texture. Great flavor that is not too sweet or pungent. - 4.6/5: The exotic fruit flavor buche is very good; nicely balanced with passionfruit, plus great texture. It's nice that you can get a buche de noel style mini cake without spending a lot of money. These are better than the holiday mousse cakes at Alexander's Patisserie. read more

Queued up forever to be told the kitchen was closed (it was 11am and sign said kitchen closes at 2pm). Asked for a Chocolate Almond croissant instead, but that sign was fake too and they had none left. Got a hot chocolate which they forgot about until I asked. S-A-D read more

Nearly ALL of my European clients and friends have raved about Maison Alyzee as being the most authentic French patisserie in the area. Some of them don't even go to any other bakery besides this one and as such, I was excited to try their pastries. I got a combination of both basic items such as their croissant and their more decorative items such as their Paris Brest. The fundamental difference between American pastries and their French counterparts is that the latter are much less heavy and sweet and in that sense, Maison Alyzee does a good job. However, that quality really isn't that important to me unless I'm making baked goods at home or having them at a friend's. When it comes to a bakery, I care more about nuanced flavors, tastes, and textures and in those aspects, this place didn't really blow me away. To put it this way, I would rather travel to Midwife and the Baker and have one of their croissants at a cheaper price even if it may be more of a sugar bomb. I was actually contemplating knocking off another star because of how much the pastries cost an arm and a leg (almost $10+ for some of the individual items). In the end, I decided against it because this bakery is the first I've visited where the pastries both look nice AND taste good (Paris Baguette and Alexander's Patisserie, take note). Overall, this place is good if you are looking for pastries that both look and taste nice. Perhaps my palate is just not sophisticated enough but I just don't get any unique taste that warrants them being the most authentic French patisserie in the area. Personally, I would visit Midwife, Craftsman, and (soon) Arsicault in Palo Alto to get a more "quality' pastry. read more

Such a pretty bakery and they have a variety of pastries from sweet and savory to choose from. I tried pistachio croissants which to my surprised didn't have any cream or filling inside but it was soft and buttery, inside the croissant have a green layer - i think it represent for the color of pistachio but I have had better croissant in the past. I like the apple tart better, the crust was tasty with the right amount of apple slices on top. Service was fast, the staff explained what is in each item before we complete our order. The ambience inside the store feels bright and neat. They also have a patio outside which is pretty nice. Overall it's a good experience read more

One of my favorite lunch spots on Castro in downtown Mountain View. The ham & cheese baguettes are my go-to. Delicious bread, lightly buttered with the quintessential ham and Swiss cheese. Arugula on the side. The chocolate tart cake is delightfully delectable. Can't go wrong if you're looking to appease your chocolate craving. Their macarons, like everything else, are made in-house. Washed down with a perfect cappuccino. Eating at this cute little restaurant is best outdoors. Especially on a nice day. However, they do package everything perfectly for DoorDash if you're aiming for delivery. read more

Came here with a large party so we ordered a variety of pastries to try. The pasties here are quite expensive, almost $10 a piece. The pastries here are beautiful, so presentation is definitely on top. However, in terms of taste, most of the pastries were not very impressive.. For instance, the lemon tart was quite sour and the crust was hard. The chocolate cake was way too dense and sweet. Probably the best ones out of the ones we tried were the 2 matcha ones. To be honest, this was quite disappointing for the price of each pastry. At least the interior is nice and fancy. Can't imagine coming back very frequently due to the prices and taste. read more

I stopped by Maison Alyzée Café and was pleasantly surprised by how charming it is! There's plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors, making it a great spot whether you're catching up with a friend or looking for a cozy solo treat. The café has a beautiful, elegant vibe, and the desserts definitely live up to expectations! I ordered a hot chocolate and the raspberry matcha cake. The hot chocolate wasn't your usual powdered mix--it was rich, thick, and clearly made with care. I really appreciated the quality, although it was a touch too sweet for my personal taste. The raspberry matcha cake was absolutely delicious and beautifully designed. It had a layer of cream and raspberry jam in the middle, surrounded by a soft, matcha-flavored cake on the outside. The flavors were perfectly balanced--light, fruity, and not overly sweet. Obviously on the pricier side since the desserts are pretty luxurious. Also, they have a bathroom there so that was convenient! Definitely a place I'd frequent again. read more

My bar for customer service is usually low as I usually just care about the food, but the service today was pretty terrible. Everyone working behind the counter clearly didn't want to be there and had some sort of an attitude. The first person who served me gave me the sense that I was bothering her in some way. I explicitly ordered a pastry by name and she brought me the wrong one. I went back later to another person and she got me a different one, but didn't even give a "sorry" but instead rolled her eyes without saying anything. Mistakes happen but I'm not even asking for much. Just at least give me the bare minimum for being polite. read more

I really love the pastries from here, those are really of a good quality and upscaled. They are quite pricey: around $10.50-12.50 for a piece of cake or tiramisu. Staff is friendly and trying their best to serve a big line of customers. My experience was always good but this time I ordered and after 20 minutes still didn't get my order. I checked in one more time at the register and after some time only received my order. I ordered flat white with my pastry that got cold already and the foam on top got dissolved, which was a quite frustrating, especially seeing people around me coming after me but they have already received their orders. read more
