La Madeleine is the perfect spot if you are looking for a quick, tasty, bite in an inviting setting. This has been one of my daughter's "go-to" places for delivery or take-out during here college career at Loyola. Today, my wife and I tried it for the first time; and thoroughly enjoyed it. She had the Quiche Lorraine and I had a Croissant Sandwich with scrambled eggs, ham, and cheddar. Her's was good, and we both agreed mine was excellent! The croissant was one of the best I've ever had. Service is friendly, and the place is clean. I highly recommend it if you are in the area and looking for a quick breakfast or lunch.

Ordered a French Dip sandwich for lunch today and the au jus was cut with so much water, it only tasted like water. It shocked me when I dipped my sandwich into it, and it was visibly light and see though. I dipped my sandwich into water. I don't even know what to say. 1 star.

Stopped in for a chocolate croissant and coffee while riding the Saint Charles street car in New Orleans. Both were quite good. My wife had a savory ham and cheese pastry and coffee which she enjoyed very much. Service was good, though the cashier was a little slow. Overall experience was very good. La Madeline is in a very picturesque setting at St Charles and Carrollton in the Big Easy. Enjoy.

Coffee is just awful, quiche is pretty bad with a weird, pasty texture, soups and sandwiches are ok, especially the mushroom soup and the roast beef au jus sandwich. Pastries are average at best, portions are tiny and they're overpriced. Croissants are ok. At least "coffee" (or whatever that stuff is) refills are free.

Our first time at this establishment and having young children we thought nice sandwich and relax before heading home. We walk in and having no knowledge of this restaurant, looked around curiously wondering what their Protocol is. Finally a lady at the To-Go side said. Take a menu and pick a table. OK sure easy enough. I get myself 2 baby chairs and we sit down. Perusing the menu waiting to see if we will be helped. Nobody comes to us. My husband who has a mobility disability, goes up to the counter where he is blantely ignored as all the staff mysterious disappear. Two other patrons walk up and begin getting food. By watching their actions I say to my husband " I think it's cafeteria style". He proceeds to order our meals and we receive an eye roll when they had to cook a pizza for our 3 year. They ignored us, complained about having to clean up the floors. Nobody bothered to explain their restaurant and how about to order and constantly the staff disappear to the back. Never again will we come back. The food was bland. My sandwich bread was frozen. They tried to charge us for a bag of chips that was included with the kid meal. They never smiled or greeted and constantly rolled their eyes. The most annoying was they all seemed amused at our blank looks and curious glancing around, waiting for directions from them. Normally we go to Cibo up the street form here, next time we will stick to what establishment we know has better food.

Wow this place has really gone downhill. The staff was rude and abrupt. The food was mediocre at best. The saucers were runny and tasted like somebody added water to them. They weren't creamy the french onion soup which used to be so delicious , was just o k. There were other things we ordered. Nobody was overly happy with what they got. But the worst thing was how the staff was so rude to us.

I haven’t been here for a long time and I was very disappointed. I remembered the pastries being flakey and my almond croissant was dry and hard and tasted several days old. I had to request the ham & cheese croissant be heated. I had to go back to request another item I’d paid for & wasn’t given. It wasn’t busy so I’m not sure why the service was subpar. The coffee was tasteless and watery. The place has lost its charm.

I've been to this chain for many years and was looking forward to a quick and easy dinner with the family here. The service was kind and helpful, but the food was very much lacking. French onion soup was so salty it was tough to eat, French bread was stale (not the delicious crusty type they usually have), and if possible the quinoa salad was soggy. I was disappointed since I've always loved this as a go-to. Hoping things turn around here!

We visited New Orleans as tourists and our Airbnb was within walking distance of this establishment so we went several times because we enjoyed it so much. So much variety from sandwiches to soups to salads and of course lots of sweet treats! The staff was beyond friendly and like I said we came back several times to get treats throughout our trip.

The place is cute but the food is gross. There soda machine only has very flat soda! The ice machine is broken - so they have to go to their freezer and get you ice (no clue how) and it melts the moment you put anything in it so you have to ask for more ice. The salads are warm and the sandwiches taste sour. Don’t go here just go the location in Metairie if your crazing this type of food.

The quality of the food and coffee went to the floor. The coffee should said "hot black water", no taste of coffee at all. The croissant sandwich and the spinach quiche was most likely from the day before( my fault because the server warned me if I wanted a fresh quiche and I declined because we were hungry). I tried to complaint to corporate but is impossible to get direct number and verbally complaint.

My daughters and I absolutely love La Madeleines. We drive over an hour one way just to eat there. This is my favorite restaurant. We just recently ate there and the food was amazing as always. The croissants are our favorite. They are so flaky and warm and the best I ever had. During the fall season this restaurant has the most amazing seasonal foods and beverages like the pumpkin spice latte. The staff is wonderful and they go out of their way to help their customers no matter how busy they are. A 5 star review is not enough for this wonderful place.

We ordered from here for lunch and we’re surprised with the poor quality and taste of everything. I ordered the quinoa kale salad with salmon and there was no kale, the lettuce was sparse and wilted, the quinoa was a gelatinous mash with little flavor. We ordered the avocado toast which turned out to be toast with the “idea of avocado” spread on top. The soups were ok but you could get the same quality form a grocery store can. The baguette was ok, but again low quality. The green beans were tasteless and overcooked but somehow still rubbery. Would not recommend.

Delicious food but horrible service. The cashier gave me attitude because I said none of us were getting salad before realizing the cafe sampler came with salad. His attitude was terrible the whole time. My husband ordered the chicken La Madeleine and we waited, and waited, and waited. My son and I finished our food and it still wasn't done. I got up to ask and saw one man watching the game on his phone, the man cooking was moving things around on the stove then looking down at a counter I couldn't see. Perhaps on his phone? A lady and the man with attitude were extremely busy with to-go orders. I believe this location needs more staff and to be more concerned about the customers standing in front of them.

I placed a simple order (six croissants) five hours before I needed it and paid for it online. When I was on my way to pick it up (five minutes from the scheduled pickup time) I received a phone call from an employee telling me she didn't have what I wanted and she "didn't know what I wanted her to do." I asked what she did have available, since I was getting these for a gathering, and she said she could start preparing something, but it would take time. I couldn't wait, since I was on my way already, so I asked for a refund. A week later, I still don't have my refund. If you have another option besides going here, I would highly recommend it.
