Maison Parisienne, located on Armitage Ave, is a delightful French café that offers one of the most chill and colorful dining experiences I've ever had. From the moment I stepped inside, I was transported to Paris. The ambiance is charming, with a beautiful fountain in the middle of the restaurant and soothing French music playing in the background. The décor is vibrant and authentically Parisian, creating a serene and inviting atmosphere. I ordered Le Thon Mayo, a French baguette sandwich filled with tuna, mayo, mustard, and lettuce. The flavor was absolutely on point. The bread was perfectly crunchy, and each bite was a testament to its freshness. The tuna was flavorful and well-seasoned, enhanced by the creamy mayo and the slight tang of mustard. The crisp lettuce added a refreshing crunch, making the sandwich balanced and satisfying. Every component of the sandwich worked together harmoniously, from the crunchiness of the bread to the savory, flavorful tuna filling. The mustard brought all the flavors together beautifully, providing just the right amount of zing without overpowering the other ingredients. My experience at Maison Parisienne was nothing short of perfect, and I would definitely come back for more. Whether you're a fan of French cuisine or simply looking for a serene spot to enjoy a meal, this café is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

We used to live by the first Maison location on Clark St. And visited quite often. we have since moved to a different neighborhood so it's been a while since we had our favorite quiche! This location is so cute! The decorations and ambiance are quite different from the Maison we knew. We took some friends with us and dined inside. But there is a quick service kiosk in the front for anything you want to grab and go. The service was a tad slow, I think there was just a rush that day. We did dine on a Saturday morning. Prime Chicago brunch time! Everything was clean and the bathroom seemed well maintained.

This is a sweet little French bakery restaurant on Armitage in Chicago. Cute decor, nice serving staff and tasty food. We were there at lunch and ordered the Quiche Lorraine and ham and cheese on baguette. Both came with a side salad with tangy mustard dressing. We had a cafe au lait and a vanilla hot chocolate. All were delicious!We walked so did not have to find street parking. Serving staff was attentive. I did feel it was a bit pricey - our little meal was over $50. While it was worth it to us for fresh, house baked and prepared food, I could see where the price might curb spontaneous, frequent lunch check-ins. But definitely could frequently drop in for any of the pastries in the display cases in the front of the shop!

The food, service from our waiter & Chef Davis & ambience all were amazing. I'm so happy with our experience & the way they helped celebrate my daughter's birthday. The Chef came out to greet us & chat with us a bit. He sent an appetizer cheesy/crunchy/bread sticks & a tart with a candle to celebrate my daughter. It was a rainy day but we felt like we traveled to Paris for the day. Thank you so much, we cannot wait to be back. Again! the food, lattes & atmosphere, pastries & service was amazing!

Ordered the chocolate croissant. Was slightly less than $5 with the service fee. The croissant was very flaky and buttery. However it would have been better served warm as opposed to room temperature. There were tables on the side of the restaurant if you do not want to be served.

This is a beautiful little French cafe. They have a variety of croissants, macaroons, as well as tarts, cakes and a few sandwiches. My latte was good ( no sugar free syrup option if that's important to you). I am knocking a star due to the service. I have never been here before. I didn't realize there are two options 1. To order at the counter and then eat/ drink at a small bar with 6 bar stools OR to be seated and have table service. It would have been helpful if the person behind the counter had actually asked as when I went to order. When I got my order I asked if I could sit at a table it was only then I was told " no " that section is for table service only " despite the place being 3/4 empty. Next time I'll know to ask for a table immediately. No complaints on my order and the place is pretty charming so I'll return.

We enjoyed a lovely lunch at Maison Parisienne! Hubby was craving a sandwich, and the roast beef did not disappoint; little T and I shared a tartine with pear, which was delicious! I would love to come back again and try their coffee/tea or some crepes!The decor was aesthetic - it seemed like everything was well-decorated. There was only one waitress working at the time, but the service was fast.

Service was really bad. Waitress had maybe one other table but ignored us while she cleaned and set empty tables that no one was waiting for. Food was eatable but definitely not worth the wait or price. Could not get bill from waitress who had disappeared. Bumped into her as she was leaving the bathroom asked her for the bill again. Still didn't get it and had to go to the counter and ask for help. I had wondered how we could get a table immediately at the height of "brunch time" but understand now. Too bad, cute place great location.

I recently had lunch at Maison Parisienne and found the ambiance charming - it took me right back to a Paris cafe. My salad and sandwich were delicious. I liked that the salad was extremely fresh and lightly dressed. The sandwich was made special by the incredibly crusty delicious baguette. The service was friendly and efficient. Finally, there was no way I was leaving without getting a few pastries to take home. The croissants are not to be missed!
