Le Macaron French Pastries

I was craving a French pastry in my side of town on a cold dark evening and stopped by this pastry shop in Riverside Plaza. I have tried the macarons in a previous visit (see review picture) so this review is long overdue. These are the best macarons in town thus far with my favorite flavor being coconut, followed by chocolate praline (out of the 4 that I tried). They have a variety of options available so you can't go wrong with this place. For this visit, I ordered a crepe with raspberry compote, Bavarian cream, and cream cheese with a cappuccino (added a 2nd shot of espresso). This crepe took me back to Montmartre momentarily given the similarity of gloomy weather and flavorful treat of when I first tried one of these in good ole Paris. This cold winter evening paired very well with this excellent French pastry shop. I am looking forward to stopping by more times since they have a large assortment of pastry options all of which look very tasty. Bon appetit!

While a bit pricey (almost $20) for 6, I've tried making them unsuccessfully so I kinda get the price. The place is cute and quaint with a nice young woman working with customers. They have gelato too, chocolates and other French desserts. I picked macarons.

We love Le Macaron! It's been a great way to try new desserts with my kids and also have a grown up selection of sweet treats. The environment is very bright and colorful. The service is always great. I take home a tiramisu whenever I can because it's one of the best in town.

Such a cute place! Large variety of delicious macarons. Individual cakes and tartes are amazing. They also have handmade chocolates and gelato. Great. Service.

Stopped here on Thursday, October 27, 2022. I saw this spot heading to La Cumbre, which is just south of it. After buying a growler, I stopped by here. This shop opened in April, so it hasn't been here too long. Since this shop is named "Le Macaron", I had to order macarons. They all looked delicious, but I decided to order eight, in pairs. Julia D helped me decide and told me to grab a flier with the different flavors by the register. I decided to order pumpkin, lemon cream, coconut, and Sicilian pistachio. For a total of eight macarons, I paid $22.41 with tax. These macarons had a hard outer shell and soft filling. My favorite by far was the Sicilian pistachio with pumpkin a close second. My wife liked the coconut best. Support a local business by buying some sweet treats. They are open 9 am til 9 pm, Monday through Sunday.

Holy mac-aron-y...somebody stahhhp me! Where do I begin??? First, I took home a pint of that almond macaron gelato aaaand pretty much killed the whole thing by myself, sooo there's that...Then, I took home a lemon tart & raspberry chocolate macaron "cake" aaaaand baaarely shared with my house mates. Who am I???Two baby macarons just for giggles also made their way into mah belly, the lavender white chocolate and the rose. Le Sigh. I barely recognize myself. The place is adorbzzz, you must add it to your dolce bucket list *and they offer many other delectable confections as well* But the real muthaload is the colossal macaron "cakes" they offer that may or may not be the size of the last unidentified aerial object that may or may not have landed in Area 51. You decide. The truth is out there..

For anyone looking for pastries this might be the place for you. But if you are looking for Gluten free options it's VERY limited. Friendly staff and a nice clean environment.

Great service young girl with glasses was amazing. sense my first language isn't English she helped me really well, coffee was also amazing would recommend to every coffee enthusiast

The ambiance is great and so is the service. I drove there from Santa Fe to get some Napoleons as that's my favorite French dessert. They were OK but rather "light" as though they neeeed additional butter and eggs. Overall, the place was delightful and their macaroons were excellent.

1st and last time here. They have biden prices doubled. I give them 3 stars because the staff was great and they Honor Veterans. But the SKY HI PRICES are mindboggling. I'll go to Dunkin Donuts, buy 2 dozen and still save $40. I didn't like the taste of the products.
