La Madeleine was a favorite of my kids when they were growing up. They would grab a tray and order a variety of soups, salads, sandwiches, crepes and pastries. Often after munching on slices of multigrain bread with strawberry and blueberry jam, they were full by the time their food came. Yet, they still managed to talk their grandparents into a buying them strawberries with Romanoff cream, a strawberry Napoleon or a Sacher torte parfait. Now La Madeleine is usually ordered for meetings at the office, but we still have an occasional family dinner here. Love their specials. Free bags and baguettes on Bastille Day. A Sacher torte or a chocolate almond croissant on my birthday. Or a bakery box to bring to the office. Sign up for their rewards program to learn about specials. The current pick 3 for $8.99 is a deal. Half a sandwich, a side like a petite Caesar salad or pasta and a drink for $8.99. Upgrade to a full sandwich for an extra $2. Add a refresher for an extra $1. I got a Croque Madame substituting the ham for smoked turkey with an egg over easy, a petite Caesar salade and a mango dragonfruit refresher for $11.99. What a deal. The guys got build your own turkey bistro sandwiches. Parking is easy. Lots of tables available. Ask for some multigrain bread with strawberry and blueberry jam while you wait. Nice for a quick and easy family dinner. Bon appetit. read more

La Madeleine has truly become one of my go-to spots, not necessarily for the food itself, but for the experience that comes with every visit. I will be honest, the food feels a little plain to me. It is quick and easy to grab when you need something, but it is not what keeps me coming back. What does keep me coming back is everything else. The staff here are incredible. Every single person I have interacted with has been kind, warm, and genuinely sweet. They create such a welcoming atmosphere that you want to linger instead of just rushing in and out. I often come in for coffee and a sweet treat, and it is always a great experience. Their lattes are actually really delicious, and pairing one with a pastry makes for the perfect little break in my day. Another thing I deeply appreciate is how this location shows compassion. There is a homeless gentleman who comes in quite often, and instead of being turned away or made uncomfortable, he is treated with respect. The staff know him, they allow him to sit, and they even know his personal order. Guests buy him food, and the team welcomes that with grace. That level of kindness means so much, and it says everything about the people who work here. Even though La Madeleine is a corporation, this particular location feels personal and special because of the staff. They are the reason I will keep returning. To me, good experiences matter more than anything, and here, you will always get one. read more

ambiance is faux bistro. You order at the counter and they deliver to table so no real service to rate. Consistently good food. I had the quiche Lorraine full-size with a tomatoes soup and had no room for one of their pretty deserts. Good choice for catching up with a friend that I hadn't seen for 6 months. read more

I'm not a huge fan of this restaurant chain, although I have many friends and work coworkers who really enjoy these restaurants. I find the flavors to be slightly above average. Not super delicious nor do I crave their food. However it is good. I find the ambience to be clean and mostly locations just like this one was inside and out. The parking lot is large and does share with retail stores and even a grocery store so it might be difficult to find a parking spot right in front of the restaurant. the service for me is really at the cash register and that's where you order, so that's why I'm giving it an average three stars for services. I'm not necessarily tell me about that. They have to go to this restaurant because it's so great Norma discouraging anyone to go. I know I'll probably be back because that's a lot of times where we can meet people instead of going to like a Starbucks or another kind of restaurant so I guess it's an overall inviting atmosphere. They do play French words in the bathrooms so that's quite interesting. Note my rating system: 1 Star: I wouldn't recommend 2 Stars: Didn't hit my standards 3 Stars: Average (nothing special) 4 Stars: Above Average. Would recommend. Still looking for the 5 Star. 5 Stars: Top of their game. Great food. Great service. Would recommend and plan on returning. read more

I love a good La Madeleine location--especially when they had the older, French Country interiors. (Now they look like cross between IHOP and Olive Garden.). But the food still can be really good. In the case of this location, however, the service is just really terrible (and has been pretty much since it opened). I go in, have a bad experience because the service is so terrible, and then I stay away for a while. Then, after a few months, I try it again, and it still isn't any better. I think this location's atmosphere and service are probably doing damage to the brand and other locations. 25 years ago you could go into any La Madeleine and have a great experience. Today, it isn't so. The company better wake up before they drive the value of the brand down to zero and must shut down. read more

I placed this order through yelp via Apple Maps. Beware ordering food on here .. When I arrived at the meal was not ready but I was willing to wait. My mistake for not checking the food before I left the restaurant. However, when I got to work and seen what I received, I was highly disappointed. I drove back to the restaurant and explained that my meal was incorrect. The entire meal was incorrect. I simply requested a refund as I did not want another greasy croissant. They refuse to give me a refund. The manager explained that order is placed on here go through grub hub. However, I was trying to explain to her I need to order number because I do not have a GrubHub account and would not be able to call them without some kind of information about the order. She was unable to do so. Offering a coupon for a next visit. I simply declined and left with food that I did not want. Unfortunately, I do not think I can return to this location due to the smell of the restaurant. read more

When you walk into a chain restaurant you don't expect a lot other than for the crew to serve food that is consistent and keep the place clean and moving. The crew at this Le Madeleine has a whole different attitude. Each member of the crew is warm, friendly and welcoming. Very respectful as well. And the place is spotless. I dine at various Le Madeleine's regularly for breakfast and they are generally good, but this one stands out to me. I felt like these folks were running their own independent mom and pop cafe and each customer was important. Food was excellent. Good job guys. read more

This was by far the worst experience I've ever had at a la Madaline. The pastries tasted like they were made two days ago. The ice tea was bitter. The staff could've cared less and when approached about how bad the pastries tasted, they just shrugged their shoulders and said sorry and turned around and walked away. This has been a staple in my life for many many many years, and although I know that not all of them are this bad the prices have gone up. The quality portions have gone down and even the staple of bread and jam that used to be a part of the cost of eating there is no longer available. If they continue to treat people like this, I know this location will not last much longer, which is a shame because it's in a neighborhood, that should support it well. As my party was sitting close to the register, we saw four other people come up to them with complaints to which seem to have no resolve. read more

I was surprised to see that you don't go through a line picking your food items. You order at the counter, they give you a number and they bring the food to you. My tomato basil soup and caesar salad were delicious. I bought a Nutella croissant muffin to go. It was ok. Sort of dry! The bread by the slice is self-serve. You get a free French lesson when you go to the restroom. I was surprised to hear the music of Pink Martini playing in the background, "Je ne veux pas travailler." read more

Came here for breakfast this past weekend. The front door is not ADA compliant as we saw the people before and after struggling to open the front door. There was no wait. Ordered our meals and got our food quickly. The tables and dining area is well spread out. The quality of the food is cheap here. Got a bad reaction to the preservatives they use in the food. Also the girl taking the order randomly asked if I wanted a mimosa once we were done ordering but I was clearly pregnant? If someone wants alcohol they will ask for it. A last attempt to get the bill higher was kinda turn off. read more

I know carbs aren't in, but the reason to dine in is the free bread and jam. I love it. Got a glass of wine and a slice of napoleon cake plus two brownies as well for $20 after tax. I heard if you can sing the French national anthem, in French, on their national day you get a free meal. génial! read more

I don't come to the Galleria often but I decided to try this location when I came here with a friend. I usually like La Madeleine's food at their Meyerland location but I was a little disappointed at this one. I ordered their cinnamon bun french toast and it was okay but a bit dry. I also ordered a side of fruit and it didn't taste the freshest. My meal totaled to about $16 which I think is definitely overpriced. My friend ordered their grilled cheese and french onion soup and she said it was good. The line was a little long but once we ordered our food came pretty fast. It was overall okay but I'm not sure I'd come back to this location. read more

Went Friday at 10am. Quiet and nice seat by the fireplace. Over medium eggs perfectly cooked. Perfect crisp bacon, yummy potato galette and toasted croissant ( requested). Love the strawberry rhubarb jelly ! But not happy at all that all employees were wearing face masks EXCEPT the 2 working the registers were not and doubt they were vaccinated. I then saw the manager ( appeared to be) was also not wearing one. Yeesh. Irresponsible and disrespectful to your customers. read more

Very disappointed! They didn't add enough chicken is only lettuce in this salad. I spent 16 dollars for o my lettuce read more

Yesterday my friend and I went after work for light bite to eat. Yousuf at the counter greeted us with a big smile and helped us make our selections. I was going to order an item and Yousuf informed us that had alcohol in it. He was patient with us while we made selections for the order and afterwards he served us at the table. There should be more workers like him who will make the customers welcomed by going the extra mile for a great customers service experience! read more

I complained about the way I was spoken to on the phone by a young African American employee. A female manager tried to excuse his behavior and gave me a complimentary meal but I got very sick the next day. I won't be returning my instincts said don't go back....listen to your intuition, these restaurants have very nasty people working for them. They forget the customers are keeping them employed and I am tired of risking my life eating out at this point. Because I want a good experience? I actually asked this fool how his day was and he kept me on hold. Karma is a b word, ya'll keep it up..... read more

Slow but friendly. Check your order for accuracy. O placed a carry out order on this visit and I could just tell mine wasn't going to be right. And, my hunch was right. Fortunately I checked the bag before leaving and noticed my soup and chicken salad were missing. In fact, they were still on the counter. The girl apologized and quickly corrected the error. Fortunately, the food tasted ok. I ordered the Duet Magnifique and Crepes. Both I've had before and like. Consistency is one of the things that this place has figured out. And, as a customer, it's much appreciated! read more

This is my preferred La Madeleine location. The food is good and consistent. They also do a good job of keeping their bakery supplies full. La Madeleine is great for lunch and dinner.

We ordered takeout tonight and got very disappointed. La Madeleine is not what it used to be. We ordered a full turkey sandwich on a croissant and a chicken la Madeleine. The sandwich looks like the middle is missing, very small. I remember the chicken la Madeleine used to be so good, now the chicken has no taste and it's so bland. Portions are so small and definitely not worth the price. read more

Normally I'd give these guys FIVE STARS or at least 4, but today NO. . First of all why do places change recipes when what they had was working??? Where's my bow tie pasta for the tomato basil pasta salad??? The penne isn't working! Second, what did you guys do to the au jus today??? It was a bowl of beef colored hot water; no flavor, nothing. I told the manager and he gave me a bowl of French onion soup to dip my sandwich in.... ok that's IS better but not au jus. Finally, my potato soup was ok but it seemed watered down too.... I'm afraid to order my coconut cream cake for fear of more disappointment. Boo hoo. read more

I've always loved eating at LA Madeleine especially after church. Haven't been out since Feb 2020 due to the virus. So we went to the Sugarland location on May 31. My mouth was watering for their French toast. Always a good dish. To my surprise it was horrible. This was nothing but a cinnamon roll with some powdered sugar and syrup. What a waste of money and time. I won't go back there and order that dish. Have to order something else. read more

The food was good, typical good La Madeleine fare. My only complaint is the young man who takes your order at the counter. A few months ago my friend and I went in for lunch and he was at the counter. He couldn't have acted any less enthusiastic to be there. He had a hard time getting the order correct and not one smile, how can I help you, enjoy your lunch, nothing. Recently last week my friend and I went back for lunch again. I was very surprised that he was still there, at the counter taking orders. He still had the same "I really don't want to be here attitude". Maybe the first time we went he was having a bad day, it happens. But after encountering him again I don't think that's the case. He won't stop me from going again as I like it and it's pretty quick. But seriously, he needs an attitude adjustment. read more

I get lunch at this place all the time at least like two-three times a week and all of their food are delicious. My top pick is their chicken salad sandwich with the creamy mushroom soup. Their croissants are yummy and fresh. The cashier is friendly and welcoming and all the kitchen staff members make sure you are well taken care of. I really like their caramel macchiato, low calorie too. Their salads are delicious as well but I like their sandwiches and pastries the most. Not to mention, their pasta! I love how their food doesn't make me bloated and have good portions. You also see calories on the menu which is helpful. read more
