    Bresaola Sandwich
    Austin B.

    tl;dr the food is not worth the trek to this French coffeeshop; the prices are high for bland baked goods and petite, inconsistently-executed sandwiches When the French-born Daniel Matho moved to America to pursue his passion for cooking, he admitted to missing the simple yet solid sandwiches of France. Four years ago, in the midst of the pandemic, he aimed to address that unfilled niche through his humble takeout window, Maison Matho. This French-leaning coffee shop specializes in French breakfast fare and baked goods, and plenty of Angelenos are braving the bumper-to-bumper Melrose traffic to try them. Matho set up shop in the street-side room of a multipurpose complex sandwiched between apartment buildings. Colorful abstract murals are painted directly onto the salmon-toned walls, and the wide, raised ordering window is shaded by a black awning. To the left, a dedicated dining space is set up within the gated, canopied patio. The hum of a ventilator unit blends with the buzz of street traffic. The sandwiches each featured Matho's crisp house baguette. However, the simplicity wasn't met with consistency. I preferred the Bresaola Sandwich, loaded with plentiful parchment-thin slices of meat. The best bites incorporated salty-and-savory bresaola with zesty lemon and crunchy whole pistachios; however, just as many bites were devoid of one or multiple key ingredients, ending up falling flat. Meanwhile, the Jambon Buerre (a classic Parisian ham-and-butter sandwich) felt relatively tame and one-dimensional; only the few bites with the tart sliced cornichons were anything more than standard. Lastly, the signature Pink Praline Brioche Bun was mostly forgettable. The dry, sweetened bread was only slightly enhanced by a thin glaze and scattered sweet-and-crunchy pralines. The service has always been prompt, and my order pick-up has been a breeze on both occasions. Unfortunately, the portion sizes feel modest for the premium price -- a single "half" sandwich is just too small for a satisfying lunch, but still runs near $15. Ultimately, with inconsistent execution even across a single sandwich, I don't anticipate paying Matho a future visit.

    Located on Melrose and Kingsley, Maison Matho is on a very busy section near the 101 freeway entrance on Normandie. Is there parking? Street parking can be a bit tough I think. I did see some folks pull up and pick up their orders so I believe ordering ahead for pick up is an option. Fortunately for me, Matho is just two blocks from my childhood home, so during a visit to my parents, following our late lunch I was struck with an urge for a good latte and some fresh air. "Let's walk to Maison Matho" What did I order? The Pink Praline Latte is a 5/5 stars in flavor. Sooo good, it crossed my mind to order a second one, even before I got halfway through the one in my hand. Service with a smile :-) The folks here are so nice. We arrived just 30 minutes before closing. They noticed we were enjoying the street side bench seating while sipping our lattes and allowed us to sit a bit longer past the closing. In comparison to other coffee shops pricing is def a bit on the high side but in my opinion, what they deliver on flavor and quality definitely makes up for it. On this visit I didn't try their food but will definitely be returning and looking forward to reviewing one of the savory offerings very soon

    I would consider this place a stand, not a restaurant but nonetheless it was really good. Really chill vibe. Parking can be an issue but we got lucky and found a spot across the street. French themed with different pastries and sandwiches available. Coffee options available as well. Price was on the higher side for lunch but we also ordered the most expensive items from the menu. I had to try the omelette with trout roe and the pink praline late. Once we ordered at the window we found a spot under the shaded patio area they have right next to the stand. There are like 3 little round tables. Once our order was ready, they brought it to us. I really enjoyed the omelette. It was placed in a baguette, so it was technically a sandwich. The eggs were soft and the trout roe added a touch of saltiness. The coffee was equally tasty, not too sweet.

    Fulfilling my own promise and coming back for their sandwiches! Not to miss the opportunity, we tried both the Jambon Beurre and Daniel's Favorite which was basically the Jambon one but with prosciutto instead of ham. Both were soooo good just like what everyone's been shouting, and it's indeed the butter which became their secret sauce! It's impressive how the simple meat, butter, cornichons combo could turn out that tasty. If we had to choose one, our pick was the prosciutto one just because it's more salty so it balanced the butter well. We pre-ordered to be secure that we're not spending long time waiting but the time we arrived on Sunday noon it's not like insanely busy. We waited a bit for the seat at the side patio, and could quickly get one. And ofc, we didn't skip their almond croissant!

    Omelette Sandwich
    Kaya H.

    Although I probably wont be back, as $22 per sandwich is a little steep for me, overall the food was really good. Parking is limited but my husband and I found a spot not terribly far and walked up to the super cute and clean window. We ordered the Omelette Sandwich and Daniel's Favorite. The Omelette Sandwich had a tad muted flavor and was dry, but was overall tasty; I just about destroyed the roof of my mouth with the bread. The eggs were really light and perfectly cooked though. My husbands sandwich was better, it had butter on it which greatly helped the dry factor and the salty prosciutto was perfection. Portions were okay for the price point. It came out in a reasonable amount of time considering it's made to order.

    My sandwich was great. Everything I expected. I am a huge baguette fan and this one I will be back for.

    Been wanting to go to Maison Matho for the longest! I had the Pink Praline Latte Hot and it was amazing! I would come back for this alone. Also got Ham n Cheese croissant. The exterior was amazing with cheesy crunchy edges and buttery layers but the ham was a lil in dryer side. Overall 5/5, staff was so nice. Will try one of the signature baguette sandwiches next time. Street Parking, cards accepted

    I don't really care for baguettes or sándwiches with a lot of meat- this has both and I'm surprisingly obsessed. The flavors were so good/ different than what I'm used to. ‍ Service was fast and friendly and they have a seating area partially outside on the left.

    Jambon Beurre
    Tovan T.

    Drove by on my way home from the city and found no line and easy parking. Grabbed a jambon buerre and Daniel's favorite before hitting the traffic-laden freeway. I really adore simplicity and that's exactly what the jambon is. A great baguette, lots of flavorful French butter, shaved jambon and some cornichons. I do wish there was more cornichons to help offset the butter and ham, but that's a small quibble. It's a sandwich and a darned good one. I found the Daniel's Favorite with prosciutto too rich and salty for my liking. It was good, but I'm more a fan of less is more in this case.

    Located down Melrose, you will find a small stand tucked off to the side. Don't blink or you might miss it--I almost did. Once you find it, though, you'll be glad you did. The menu is distinctly French, featuring fun specialty drinks and thoughtfully crafted dishes. My friend and I ordered the Omelette with Trout Roe specialty sandwich ($27) and split half of the classic Jambon Beurre ($12 half / $23 full). I was very tempted to add a pastry, but I'm glad I didn't--this was more than enough food for two. Both sandwiches were delicious and served on their incredible house-made baguette. Honestly, I could eat the baguette alone and be happy. The omelette sandwich was quite messy, so grab plenty of napkins. The French omelette itself was perfectly cooked--light, fluffy, with a soft center. I might have preferred a roe with a bit more pop, but the trout roe worked fine. The Jambon Beurre was everything you would expect from this French classic: a thick slab of salty butter, a generous amount of ham, and tangy cornichons to finish it off. Next time, I may ask for extra cornichons. There is a small patio area with tables, plus a couple along the sidewalk. That said, the sandwiches hold up well for takeaway. Since everything appears to be made to order, expect a bit of a wait. All in all, the sandwiches were excellent, and I will definitely be back to try more of the menu.

    We found this little hidden gem in LA and it was amazing. My friends and I got the egg omelette, Jambon Beurre, and an ice Americano to share. The bread was fresh and the butter tasted amazing. The egg omelette was fluffy and soft a 5/5 and the Jambon was 4/5. The service was fast and the server was really thoughtful by helping us cut the sandwiches into four pieces so it will be easier to share. They also have a little area for seating on the side. Would definitely be back if I'm in the area but it's street parking only!

    An interesting spot with a small menu but lots of personality! While I was around Hollywood, I stopped by here for a quick lunch. I got the Daniel's favorite sandwich (Prosciutto di parma, butter & cornichons on their own baguette) and it was so delicious and very unique. The sandwich is also a very good size and the baguette is yummy as well. The service is relatively fast from the window and most of the seating is outside. There isn't much, but I got lucky and landed a seat when some folks left.

    Heard a lot of great thing about this place and realized that I drove by this places countless times without realizing that it's a French shop, a hole in the wall type that is for to go only. First, parking was easy since I got street parking right next to the building but it can be snapped up once the lunch rush starts. Small menu but great choices. Easy order through the window with great, friendly service staff. Ordered 1/2 Daniel's favorite (Prosciutto di Parma, butter & cornichons on house baguette), Pork Rillette (Pork confit topped with fresh herbs and cornichons with toasted baguette), and London Fog. Took abit to get order since it's made to order and there are couple orders ahead of me. Once done, they bring it out in a to go bad to you. Price wise, it's pricey and true to the French for sure. It's definitely on the high end but didn't expected to be on this side on the neighborhood. The sandwich was great, great combo but the baguette was not toast or heat up so it be chewy. The butter is definitely bring the whole thing together and it a lot in the sandwich for sure, so glad that I when to the gym prior. I can felt my heartbeat and my fat appreciated a lot. The Pork Rillette, or pâté was great...on the light side and perfectly great on the toasted (crunchy) baguette. The 1st bite, you wonder what you're tasting but as you chew, you start tasting the pork, the herbs combined and the favor is getting to you as you eat it. The croissant was great as well, but I would preferred that it heat up abit so I can bite into the crust crunch croissant. The latte was fantastic, well make. Overall it was surprisingly great lunch but the prices got me off guard abit since all these is for $47 included tip. Definitely in the high end in the low end neighborhood.

It's not my favorite bakery in Little Tokyo and I'd rather get Yamazaki's nikuman and as Cafe Dulce's name implies, they have a wider range and are more known for their sweet pastries (not saying that they don't have non-sweet things). They're almost always a part of the huge collaborations that Little Tokyo has, think the Hoyo slop stuff or the crazy Silent Hill one. Lots of art on their windows and they usually have a collab drink or something. Just know that depending on how popular the collab is, and even if it isn't, this place has lines out the door and is quite fisted. Tables in front are always full of people. Drinks are hit and miss. Every latte I've gotten, even with mixing is grainy sweet coffee slop and the matcha isn't too great either (way better options in the area), but if you have a sweet tooth for pastries it's not too bad. Decadent cream donuts, mochi donuts, savory sausage donuts, and creme brulee ones too. Shareable, but something I'd need to down with milk or some water.

The collab started today and will last until the 31st. The store opens at 7am , but even though I got there around 8:30 and there was no line they still managed to sell out of a majority of the limited edition Kuromi themed pastries. Which was a little heart breaking, but also understandable. I ended up ordering the Kuromi Berry lemonade and some of their more popular items like the D Tia Blue (blueberry/cream cheese filled pastry) and the Japanini. Everything hit the spot as expected, but the highlight of my visit was definitely that berry lemonade! It had the perfect sweet to sour ratio and it looked very whimsical with its purple hue. I'll definitely be back to order that again and maybe I'll have better luck next time with the availability of the limited edition pastries. It wasn't as busy as it typically gets so took advantage of the opportunity and I dined in. During my visit I adored the Kuromi decor around the story. It was definitely picture worthy. They also have the cutest merch available for sale and of course I bought a sticker sheet to add to my sticker collection. The workers also wore pretty purple Kuromi hats and aprons, which is also included in their merch for sale fyi.

The mango was okay so we shared that. The coffee bean was just awful as well so we didn't finish that either. The orange was the best of the group but overall just a disappointing experience once again because these are not cheap. I'm starting to think I might just have to give up my journey to find these although there are some places in Vegas that look promising. I don't think Reno has any bakeries that make these. They look so beautiful but the taste is a let down.
