    BYO baguette with only 2 small slices of roast beef
    Marla R.

    Came here because my husband said that the French dip was fantastic. And he again loved his. I'm not so impressed with $10 for half of a sandwich with literally 2 small slices of deli roast beef on it. I choose no other toppings so I didn't expect a lot, but more than 1 oz of meat was expected. And a handful of chips was my side. I was not allowed to add a side of au jus to my basic sandwich, so I had to use his - which was fine. But I actually just spread some butter on the bread instead and it was very good that way. In spite of not figuring out a way for me to have au jus instead of the cheese and other toppings, the order taker was friendly. I'll be back for bread and bakery goodness. But not for another meal that left me wanting.

    How we choose to represent our selves...

    Disappointing to walk into a French bakery at opening time and get served yesterday's croissant. I asked the cashier if the pastries are all from today and he said yes without blinking. From the looks of the dirty and sloppy display case, as well as the crust and old flavor of croissant, they are Not fresh. A French Bakery (or any bakery) should represent themselves well when it comes to baked goods, especially a croissant. Looks at the pictures and judge for yourself- I wouldn't waste my time coming here.

    Have not been here in a very long time but we were out and about the other day and decided to stop and get dinner. I'm so amazed they are still here because we just never see big crowds here. But they are still here and we had a very good meal. They used to offer bread and jam but I guess due to COVID, that is no longer available. Wife asked about it and was told you just have to ask now, it's kept behind the counter. Not sure how anybody knows this unless you ask. They have a big dining area with two sides, separated by a fire place. We chose a table by the fire. They also have a separate dining room that you have reserve to host get-togethers, meetings, etc. Overall the place is well kept up and clean. They have a incredible case up front with lots of yummy pastries to look at it and order. You order at the counter and then sit and your food is brought to you. I ordered the Caesar Salad, which was just ok. I found the lettuce a bit too soft and wilted for my taste but the croutons were tasty and the dressing was ok. I also ordered the French Dip with caramelized onions. It was served on a toasted baguette with provolone and a creamy horseradish sauce. I really liked the sandwich...quite tasty and not too over the top with the horseradish. The au jus was good and flavorful...it could have been a tad hotter in my opinion. Wife ordered the Beef and Parmesan Potatoes, which is really a glorified Shepherds Pie. Ok...so this was the best dish of the night! The potatoes were fluffy and full of cheesy goodness and flavor and it was a hearty portion. Centered into the potatoes was gravy with chunks of tender beef, carrots and peas, and mushrooms. The gravy is made with red wine, which gives it the perfect hearty, homey taste to the dish. We didn't get dessert this time around. Overall a really good meal. Can't really speak about the staff because you have very little interaction with them. They were friendly at the counter when we ordered and maybe three words were spoken when the dinner was delivered. I toggled between a three and four star rating, reviewed my last review and decided to stay with four stars.

    Where and what to eat on a rare cooler rainy day in Arizona... let's go for some great soup and sandwiches at this adorable French themed restaurant. The service was great and very welcoming..The tomato soup was a bit salty for my taste..but the grilled cheese paired well in it.. huge portions..had to take some for lunch the next day...still tasted good It really made you get a feel of French culture.. while in the restroom ..over the intercom ..so cute they went over common phrases in French.. Had a little bakery counter to purchase all your favorite French pastries there.. They do have an App too if you want to gain rewards on the money you spend. Great place for lunch.. I will definitely come back here to try out the other great food they offer.

    Food was great! Everything I had was delicious. From my ham and cheese croissant, Nutella muffin, Nutella Crossaint and macarons . The croissant dough was your typical buttery, flakey but a little more dense so for me it was way better. I liked the concept of ordering your food from the counter and someone brought it to you. You get your drinks before hand so you can enjoy your tea, juice, coffee while waiting for your food. I would suggest pre ordering regardless your dining in or taking it to go. On peak hours the lines can get long hence your food taking a little longer to be served. They also have a reward program and an App so you can do the ordering that way as well. Now, I wish they had La Madeleine in San Diego so I don't have to wait to visit AZ just to eat their food.

    5 Stars - A Beautiful Place to Work & Dine! La Madeleine is truly a gem! Not only is it a warm and welcoming place to enjoy delicious French-inspired food, but it's also an amazing place to work. The atmosphere is cozy and charming, the food is always fresh and flavorful, and the pastries? Absolutely to die for. What really makes La Madeleine stand out is the sense of community--both among the team and with the guests. Whether you're here for a relaxing meal or behind the counter making it happen, the experience is full of heart. I love it here and feel lucky to be part of such a wonderful environment!

    Best coffee, best breakfast, period. For years now this place always hits the right points. My boyfriend and I come here once in a while and honestly never really disappoints. Truly love the taste of the cappuccino and I usually get the breakfast croissant (super good) but this time I tried the new French toast breakfast, and omg sooo good. The service was great, we went yesterday and the man who was in the register was also coming and going and doing so much. He was a really nice young man. The shop sometimes could do a better in cleaning... but other than that you are awesome

    Half eaten French vegetable soup
    Sandy C.

    Very cute restaurant, lovely music, superb service. Coffee is also good, had the 'French Roast' and it definitely hit the spot. I ordered the vegetable soup and it was pretty good, bread on the side is always a nice gesture. I wasn't too thrilled with the menu choices but that's just me, I'm gluten free and don't eat a lot of sugar and of course bakery items...if you do though, their pastries look fabulous. Service here is reason enough to stop by and enjoy a lunch or breakfast with your bestie.

    Creamy Pesto Pasta
    Diele K.

    Hot take: French pasta is sometimes better than Italian pasta. Waiting for the messages pouring in about how dare I say that?! For a little cafe, you'd be surprised how great the food is here! Definitely try the creamy pesto pasta, and it even travels well if you want to order through Uber eats like I did at work today. Only downfall to ordering is that you don't get the beautiful French style cafe and the friendly service, but the food more than makes up for it!

The mug was really cool and AZ themed, so I had to get it. I picked out some of the cake slices as well as some baked goods! I also ordered the Vietnamese coffee drink and added sea salt and brown sugar. It was delicious but definitely on the sweeter side. I think I would skip the brown sugar next time. When I arrived, they were out of the Berry Tales on the floor which are my favorite. I asked if they had any made in the back and it turns out they'd recently made a fresh batch and were letting them cool. Assunta got me a couple of those and then helped ring up my order. She was very very nice and gave me an extra slice of cake. When I mentioned they were for a birthday, she also gave me some candles and birthday chocolates to put on top. I really appreciated this and can't thank her enough for going the extra mile to provide such awesome service! I love 85, Especially this location in Chandler. Definitely check it out sometime.

There were so many options that it honestly took me a while to decide what I wanted! I really liked the self-serve bakery concept because it lets you browse at your own pace and pick out whatever catches your eye. They have a great mix of both sweet and savory items, along with an extensive drink menu featuring both hot and cold beverages, so there's truly something for everyone no matter what you're craving. Everything we ordered tasted fresh and flavorful. The pastries were light and delicious, and the drinks paired perfectly with the food. You can definitely tell they take pride in the quality of what they serve. The only thing I'd mention is that they don't accept American Express. It wasn't an issue for me since I had another payment method, but it's something to keep in mind before visiting. Overall, this was a fantastic first experience, and I can definitely see why so many people recommend 85°C Bakery Cafe. Between the incredible selection, fresh-tasting food, delicious drinks, and unique bakery experience, I'll definitely be back to try even more of their menu.

You won't be getting dry bolo bao or pastries with an underwhelming amount of filling. Their traditional HK pastries are perfect and consistent every time. Lesser known fact: they've been killing the pastry fusion game. My favorite is a pastry that blends curry, pork sung, and green onion milk breads into one. They also have a milk bread loaf that's half green tea/red bean and half coconut. I think they've even had pork sung red bean once which is admirably wild?? Their latest releases have also been phenomenal. The flaky, sesame-covered radish and spring onion pies taste like they're straight out of a dim sum restaurant, and the salted cream custard bun was so aromatic and creamy.

I know they're vegetarian, but I wanted to double check with her. She responds as "vegetarian means no meat, right"? All employees working at a food establishment should know what vegetarian means. This was quite baffling to hear. I asked her for a new slice because the one that was out on display was visibly burned and the other slice was touching pepperoni from the meat pizza. As mentioned, I'm a vegetarian. Therefore, I could not have either one of those slices. She proceeds to say that's how the pizzas are. They are slightly burned because they are so sourdough. While I can accept this answer, I do not accept the fact that she would not be willing to give me another slice as a paying customer. She insensitively said she can't give me a new one until all the old slices are taken up. She mentioned that this is their procedure. According to this, they are saying that they will not provide a proper product unless the old, damaged product, or unacceptable by the customer is used up first. If this is their business model, then it is apparent they do not value customer service. This business should have the competence to understand that if they want to sell a product, they cannot sell it in a condition that the customer is not satisfied with. Most importantly, being a vegetarian, they should have the sensitivity to understand that if a slice is touching the meat product then they cannot consume it. And again, the employee completely disregarded my health and religious beliefs by not accommodating me. You usually won't encounter problems when you're just trying to buy bread. However, it reflects on the business's employees greatly when there is a problem and they do not value customer service by resolving or accommodating the customer's satisfaction. I will be switching to Noble exclusively. Especially since it's so readily available at the farmers markets and stores.
