    Large coffee
    John C.

    Nice place but a limited menu for food. If you like what they are serving it is delicious. We had coffee and a croissant as a break while waiting. Large coffee is about 20oz and only 40 cents more. Strong but not bitter.

    Waiting for our food.

    We arrived at the airport early for our mid-day flight and decided to grab a little lunch. We split a chicken salad croissant sandwich, tomato basil soup and a bag of chips along with iced teas to drink. We were greeted and our food was rung up and prepared and then delivered to our table. Everything tasted good. The restaurant was very clean and comfortable. I would choose to eat here again.

    Quiche Florentine

    Stop at this lovely restaurant for breakfast. The staff was very helpful and welcoming. We got some coffee and quiches. The coffee was freshly brewed and the quiche was delicious and rich. Loved the texture that was soft and very creamy. There are tables inside and the atmosphere is very tranquil. They have a lot of options for breakfast and also pastries. The staff was wonderful and very friendly customer service!

    My sis and I stopped in here for a quick breakfast during our short layover. This is a cute little French based bistro that offered several pastries and prepackaged sandwiches along with hot meal options. In got the American breakfast which was ok. Its was nothing special but the croissant was delish. My sis got a fancy ham and cheese sandwich called the croque monsieur. It was VERY GOOD. The staff was really nice, quick and accommodating. The restaurant is clean with several small tables. All in all a great little spot to grab something quick and tasty.

    When you need somewhere calm to relax for coffee and tea in between flights, this is a great spot. Staff was very nice. I definitely saved this to my list

    Had a three hour layover and wanted to find someplace to eat at for a late lunch. We stumbled upon this place after passing other restaurants and stores located near our gate. After looking at the menu, I decided on getting the pesto pasta and made my way to the cashier. The cashier was absolutely cheerful and had a great personality as he rung up my order and provided me with my order number. Just the setting of the restaurant felt like we were transported to a French restaurant and just hearing the cashier interact with the other customers made me smile. The pasta serving was decent with a French roll and tasted as good as my favorite pasta that I would get at Disneyland (definitely a weird comparison that I'm not mad about hehe) We ended up chilling there after finishing our meal and even thought about seconds, but ended up making our way out about 30 minutes before our flight hehe

    If you like Le Madeleine, I would not recommend eating at the airport location. The atmosphere, food, and presentation here is more reminiscent of Grandy's than the cobblestone, "there's always a fire in the fireplace", French café that I've come to enjoy over the years. I ordered my usual French country breakfast, and it came on a disposable plate, resembling the pile of food one might expect from a cafeteria line. To be honest it was offputting, and made me wonder if Le Madeline's food is always this oily and I just didn't notice because of presentation and atmosphere. Kinda ruined it for me a bit. No complementary bread or self serve coffee are offered, and they did not ask me which blend I wanted when I ordered coffee at the counter. Flat panel digital Menus even took away from the classic, south of France traditional feeling of the place and reminded me of McDonald's. It's possible that the disposable plates, silverware, and cups are due to lack of space in the back for dish washing. But, my advice to Le Madeleine would be to avoid dumbing down their concept, because it re-framed my experience into something I enjoyed significantly less.

    I'm pretty sure this is the worst soup and salad I've ever had. ..

    Aweful. ..How could soup, salad and a fruit cup be so bad. Not worth a detailed review. Just don't do it.

    It's an airport restaurant so I tried not to set the bar too high. I was one of two people in the…read moreplace and service was pretty slow. It's a good thing I had a 2.5 hr layover or it probably would have been a little more irritating. I ordered the chopped salad with salmon and dressing on the side. It wasn't too long a wait. The salad came out with the dressing on it. It was relatively light dressing so it wasn't too bad. It was a pretty decent size piece of salmon for whatever that's worth. I won't make it a point to visit next time I'm in DFW but if I'm in the vicinity I might stop by for lunch.

    It's so hard to find a place that serves good food in airports. Luckily I stumbled upon this gem…read morewhich is a "trans fat free restaurant, who seeks out fresh, quality ingredients: grass fed hormone free beef; farm raised antibiotic free chicken; cage free eggs and local produce." After knowing this how could I resist! It's 9am so I opted for the ranch style breakfast with bacon and scrambled eggs. I only had an hour prior to departure, to my delight my food came in 15 mins. The first bite I immediately realized something was wrong. Everything but the eggs was cold. It was as if the food had been sitting out buffet style without heat in the kitchen. Cold ham, cold bacon, hot eggs, cold potatoes and warm biscuit. It's as if I siked my own self out by the quality of the ingredients. One must have a cook that knows how to properly prepare the ingredients and hopefully they will learn to cook to order. I won't be back for breakfast but am tempted to try dinner if I ever have a later flight.

    Forgot to take pictures...went for a large family dinner. Loved the Thai chili Brussels sprouts,…read morequail knots and calamari. Enjoyed the lamb and more Brussel sprouts. Kind and classy servers. Fancy, upscale, and great place for steaks and fish dishes.

    I came here for early dinner and ended up trying quite a bit from the menu. The restaurant itself…read moreis really nice. It's quiet, cozy, and has a great atmosphere for a relaxed dinner! The portions are also huge Our server was wonderful from start to finish. He was friendly, attentive, and checked on us often without being overbearing. The service was honestly the best part of the experience. We started with the Sichuan calamari, and this was easily the highlight of the meal. It was perfectly crispy, the glaze had just the right amount of sweetness and heat, and the seasoning gave it a nice kick without overpowering the calamari. It was one of the best calamari dishes I've had and definitely raised my expectations for everything that followed. Next was the tenderloin bruschetta, and unfortunately this one just didn't work for me. The flavors didn't come together, and it was much saltier than it needed to be. It felt like there were too many things happening on the plate without much balance. I wouldn't order it again. For the entrées, the Chilean Sea Bass was very good. The fish was flaky and cooked well, the risotto was creamy, and the sauce brought everything together without being too heavy. It was one of the stronger dishes we ordered. The lobster stuffed ravioli was another solid choice. The filling was generous, there was plenty of lobster on top, and the vodka sauce complemented everything nicely without taking over. It was rich but still well balanced. We also tried the New Zealand rack of lamb. This one had mixed reviews at our table. It wasn't as tender as I was hoping, but I didn't dislike it and again I didn't love it! The blackened exterior and the wine reduction gave it good flavor, but it just wasn't particularly memorable. My favorite entrée ended up being the tomahawk pork chop. The pork itself was juicy, flavorful, and cooked really well. I wasn't a huge fan of the pineapple bourbon glaze since I didn't think it added much to the dish, but the quality of the meat made up for it. We also had the strawberry spinach salad, which was fresh and a nice lighter option alongside all the richer dishes. Then there was also a side dish with green beans and almond and again no complains there. Overall, I left feeling a little conflicted. The service was outstanding, the atmosphere was great, and the portions were very generous. The food itself was a mix of really good dishes and others that completely missed the mark. After such an incredible start with the calamari, I expected the rest of the meal to be on the same level, but it just never got there. I'm glad we tried it, but I don't think it's a place I'd rush back to.
