Absolutely wonderful French cafe with all of the classic items you would expect! Beautifully decorated floor to ceiling with gorgeous flowers and even crystal chandeliers. On top of this beautiful decor the handmade pastries and sandwiches are amazing! We purchased many of the sweet and chocolate croissants as well as some of the savory pastries as well. We definitely will be back to sit down and have lunch in their lovely cafe area!

This is one of the best restaurants I have ever eaten at in Chicago. I ordered a salad, which came with crispy delectable chicken on top of fancy greens. The dressing was so refreshing. It was one of the best salads I've ever eaten. My sister got a delicious sandwich, mushroom soup, and a cup of lavender london fog that was brewed and sweetened to perfection. We ordered a pear dessert too, and I couldn't believe how buttery and delicious the crust was. The atmosphere is so warm and inviting, and the decor made my heart melt. I absolutely love this place. It was such an uplifting and lovely experience. I can't wait to go back!!! It was like a mini vacation, that's how much we enjoyed it.

If you need a cup of coffee with crispy croissants, this is definitely the place to stop by. Their location is cute and they have lots of jam jars and other special gifts for loved ones. At this location service was always nice and the tastes of their bakery items are just delicious. Their price point can be higher than usual but the experience itself is worth every penny.

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!

The café looks nice, and the decorations resemble cafés in Paris! The vibe is on point, including music and ambiance. The food is good; I tried the baguette with ham and cheese, a.k.a. Le Parisien. We also tried the quiche, and it tasted decent. I liked the pear tart and the chocolate mousse cake. The service was decent, and the staff were friendly. I would definitely come back during brunch.

Great lemon tart! Came here for a food tour. The flavors were amazing, with the fresh fruit brightening the nice tart lemon filling(it was very lemony). One thing I would say is that the crust is quite dense. The beautiful flower decor and natural lighting made the atmosphere so nice. The lady who brought our tarts was very nice too!

Found this gem while waiting for a meeting at DePaul. Short walk from Brown Line. Good service. I had the waffle and my bride had the lemon curd & blueberry crepes. Both were delightful. Cappuccino was good and decently priced. Would visit again

Wow this place is adorable! Would highly recommend coming in just to enjoy the atmosphere or a coffee date. Lots of beautiful pastries and macaroons, serves La Colombe coffee. Small businesses like these who really add to the community. Enjoy! We'll be back!
