When they're open, they have good food .. especially the bakery . Their problem is they're constantly closed and you never know when they will reopen! Their ovens have been broken more than they've been working.!!

We had a wonderful breakfast there. Hidden off Cerrillos, but worth the time to get there. Large dining area, ample parking. Delightful help and the pastries like no other.

I had the best club sandwich I've ever eaten in my LIFE here for brunch on Saturday. The bread was toasted with butter in a skillet, the lettuce was crisp, the tomatoes were fresh and the sandwich was jam packed with turkey and avocado. It was so filling, in fact, I had some left over for an afternoon snack. The French fries are better than I've ever had, as well. They were crispy and light, not oily. The woman was short staffed, so she was taking care of the front all by herself. That didn't affect her hospitality, though. She was great. Whenever I'm feeling like a turkey club, this will be my go-to place.

On my last visit here, I was hugely enjoying a meal with a guest from out of town when we noted the "closed" sign was affixed to the door at 2:30 p.m., presumably to prevent new customers from entering. As noted before, the time the kitchen closes is a piece of proprietary and floating information in this establishment. We continued to have a grand old time finishing off our table of sumptuous lunchy things -- only marred again by the inability to get a good cup of tea -- until the server approached at 2:40 to announce, "We actually closed 40 minutes ago, so ..." With a palpable grimace, to let us know just how gruesomely we had overstayed our welcome. I said, "We thought you were open until 3:00 from your website." She said, "Yes, but we're short staffed today, so I'm the only one here."To recap: In Santa Fe, when a restaurant is closing its doors 20 or 30 or 40 minutes early -- who knows, math and all -- no one will let you know at the point of ordering so you might plan your meal accordingly. Nor, barring that, approach to say, "So sorry, don't want to rush you, but we have to wrap up early today as we're short staffed." Aka, what comprises minimum customer service in every other known part of the universe. And to which we would have had nothing but sympathy.But alas, the compulsion to let customers know they are destroying lives by visiting a business during its PUBLICLY STATED BUSINESS HOURS is just too irresistible. So we stuffed unfinished pastries away and ran out of there. What a ruined experience, and so very unnecessarily so. It is frankly embarrassing to bring people out to eat in this city.

Madame Matisse has such GOOD food. Their sandwiches are always fresh (the Italian and the Banh Mi are very delicious!), the pastries are insanely good, and the service is always short and sweet as preferred. Their croissants are really great, and I've been finding myself craving them in the mornings. I recently tried the raisin roll and that was amazing, very tasty and lightly sweet. The owner is very kind, and I've never had an issue with my food in all of the times I have went to eat/picked up from here. I really can't say enough nice things, so what are you waiting for?? Go!

Went for brunch today...warm goat cheese salad is delicious, Spanish omelet was good, accompanying gratin potatoes are superb! Also ordered an almond croissant. It was good but so much almond filling that it weighed down the fluffiness of the croissant. I will 100% return. Merci for the awesome brunch! I arrived at 9 am. It is better to arrive at 10 am, because I watched alot of fresh baked pastries delivered to display case between 9 and 10 am.

When you walk in the only thing you see are empty cases with no pastries at 9 am. The front doors were open and a food delivery truck was outside so our dining experience was accompanied by the sound of an eighteen wheeler with its engines running. The open doors also brought in flies that circled our table while we were there.Hubs ordered the eggs Benedict with a side of crispy bacon and I ordered a salad with beets, goat cheese and a lime vinaigrette. Hubs said eggs Benedict was tangy not creamy tasty and huffed at salad that was the side. Prices are high. It was $4 for two pieces of bacon. Our bill was $46 before tip.My salad was good. Not great. Goat cheese was two fried goat cheese wheels and beets were large pieces both purple and yellow and salad also had feta which was weird. I ordered hot tea and received no lemon, no honey and limited selections.I think there might be better breakfast options. I would skip this one if you visiting from out of town. If you are local I'm sure you are aware of the shortcomings.

We visited Madame Matisse yesterday and had delicious French toast plain and with berries. The latter is served with a berry syrup. Both are accompanied by dollops of whipped cream and served in an appealing manner. While we were enjoying our breakfast, the aroma of just baked pastries filled the air. The display was mouth-watering so we bought a cinnamon twist, a chocolate croissant, and almond croissant. They were very impressive. The baker is French, which explains the high quality--flaky and delightful. Our waitress, also from France, was very welcoming and provided attentive service. It's a small and unassuming place that can't be missed.
