Macaron Delight.....has some of thee BEST macarons Ive ever tasted!!…read more So, I came across this black owned and operated macaron business on yelp, and I jumped at the opportunity to support and try out a variety flavors. I seamlessly placed an order online, requested a specific pick up date (which Brian amazingly accommodated), and within a few days, I was handed a beautifully filled box of colorful macarons. Each flavor was distinctly experienced and savored, and the texture of each macaron was sheer perfection!!! And they are a generous size! Brian has officially cracked the macaron code :) Yelp peeps, I highly recommend! And here are some pro tips regarding this new budding business: -All orders are made to order -Orders have to be placed a few days in advanced -currently for pick up only; you select a day and time at checkout -Pick up is located at the Mess Hall window -Street parking is readily available nearby So, if you're a macaron lover..you need to check out this business asap! But honestly, everyone will enjoy these perfect treats!

The pandemic changed everything - and for better or worse, I really wanted to have a special treat…read morefor myself, for sanity ya know? If you, like me, only thought macarons were were special occasions - Macaron Delights will throw that notion right out the window. I've ordered from their small business a few times now for personal use (because these get stolen by my roomies every time I get a box!) and I've never been disappointed. They have a simple, yet full menu of different macarons to choose from, are happy to work with you for custom orders (ever seen a macaron cake? Google its amazingness!), you can conveniently pick up several boxes - trust me, don't be foolish and get just one like I did the first time - or pop in to see what new flavors they are show casing. The fact that they are a black-owned business is the icing on the macaron, warms my heart and helps me feel like I am supporting my community. Decedent, delicate, and delightful all around - buy some for any occasion not just the special ones and surprise someone with a unique gift. The flavors are on point, the fillings are just right, the shells are soft on the inside and just melt in your mouth... Actually, I'll be back, I'm going to ring them up for another order for this week haha.

Wonderful floor plan, interior design, music, lighting and overall atmosphere. LOVE!…read more The staff were all so lovely from the moment I walked in. So kind. So helpful. So friendly. So sweet. The food was divine. Truly. The egg sandwich was so good. The croissant was perfectly crunchy buttery and although seemed like too much for me, it was perfect. The eggs were perfectly cooked. The perfect temperature. The cheese was very good, creamy, naturally flavorful not overly so. I guess I just can't praise this place enough. I stayed a while so need up getting a second drink, the Sakura matcha latte which was very tasty too - all round the right amount of matcha-y! Lol! I also ordered the blueberry eclair - not too sweet. Perfect size. Perfect ratio. Not to mention, beautiful. Just perfect. Love this place! Will go back every time I'm in town. Not crazy about the parking situation in the area but whatever, that's the way it is round there and luckily I found a spot easily :) Check this place out. It's truly lovely.

Honestly I've been here twice and if you're looking for a chill study spot, this is your place…read more However as far as drinks and desserts go, it's overwhelmingly mid. The desserts are pretty. But it doesn't taste super good. Their matcha is abysmal and super milked down. My friends thought their coffee was mediocre. It's a pretty spot though but lots to be improved imo.

Delicious macarons... but your wallet will notice!…read more As a gluten-free girl, macarons are one of my favorite desserts, so anytime I spot them, I HAVE to try them. Naturally, I was very happy to have Olivia Macaron right in my Union Market neighborhood! I've tried several flavors, but my favorites are definitely the honey lavender, red velvet, and lychee rose. They also occasionally offer specialty flavors, which gives me an excuse to keep coming back and trying something new. Now, let's talk about the price. These macarons are delicious, but they are BY FAR the most expensive macarons I've ever had -- and I've purchased macarons in both Paris and New York! They're definitely more of a little treat-yourself moment than something I'm casually grabbing by the dozen. The shop itself is quaint but super cute and inviting. It's a nice neighborhood spot to grab a coffee, enjoy a macaron, and even sit and get a little work done. The staff has always been friendly and helpful, especially when it comes to recommending flavors. Overall, I'm really happy to have Olivia Macaron in the neighborhood. The macarons are delicious, the flavors are fun, and the space is adorable. I just need those prices to come down from the penthouse a little bit.

Really overpriced (~20$) and dry and doesn't taste good!…read more They don't make fresh every day! The unsold macaron sits in the glass jar and it gets hard. Why would you sell more than a day old bakery item? For the price, it should be perfect! I won't recommend this place! But their location in the mall is too notch and catches lots of passersby!

I was not able to purchase from them. I was already full from visiting other businesses. So when I saw the Sip and Shop event I attended as a vendor, I ensured I didn't leave without purchasing some macarons. Macarons have become one of my favorite desserts with their smooth, crispy shell and moist interior Birthday Cake (Blue) Lemon Meringue Pie (Yellow) Smores (Brown) Strawberry Basil (Red) Vanilla Bean (little brown) Cookies and Cream (little brown one and red) ​ ​My faves: ​ Cookies and Cream - It's like an Oreo x1000 for flavor ​Blue Birthday Cake - I would love a stack of these for my next birthday ​ S'mores - Because it reminds me of being young

My favorite out of these flavors were definitely nutella and the snickerdoodle! The other flavors were also good for sure, just some of them were a little bit too sweet for me. There were two gentlemen manning the store when I stopped by, and they were really friendly and helpful when I was trying to figure out how many macarons to buy, and which flavors to get based on what is popular. They were very patient while I tried to figure out what I wanted to get because they have so many different flavors that sound so good. Overall, good service and amazing macarons! I will definitely be back again!

EXCELLENT MACARONS! The difference between an excellent macaron and an average macaron is huge,…read moreand unfortunately I've eaten way too many average macarons. The macarons from I Love Macarons are excellent!! I try to taste these delightful confections every chance I get. We are so fortunate in the WDC area to have access to the delightful confections from I Love Macarons. Not only are they beautiful, but these macarons are the freshest I've ever tasted. The fillings are smooth, fresh and light. The cookie is slightly chewy, easily giving way to the tender center. My mouth is watering just thinking about them! The company mail orders within the USA and are going to become my "go to" gift to send to my out of town friends and family. Don't hesitate to give them a try...they really are as good as it gets!
