We visit this shop a few times a year, and our experiences have always been positive. On this visit, I was excited to bring a few friends who were visiting from out of town. they loved the location, the atmosphere, and were looking forward to trying the shop. Unfortunately, this visit was different. while the shop was not busy, a lady in my group was spoken to in a way that we felt was dismissive and unwelcoming. it left us with the impression that we had interrupted whatever was going on at the time. as someone who enjoys supporting local businesses, that was disappointing to experience. I don't normally write reviews like this because I understand that everyone can have a bad day. however, I felt it was important to share my experience in hopes that it helps improve future customer interactions. Please don't let my experience discourage you from visiting. we have had many great visits here in the past, which is why this experience stood out. I also hope to see the lady who is normally here when we visit, as she has always been friendly, welcoming, and provided excellent customer service. We will absolutely visit again in the future, and I hope this was simply an isolated experience. If the owner or management would like to discuss what happened, please feel free to contact me. I would be happy to share more details privately. THANK YOU read more

Mademoiselle Paris - COFFEE TIME... - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

I was really looking forward to having a relaxing solo date at Mademoiselle Paris near UTC, but unfortunately the experience was disappointing. The staff was unexpectedly rude and unwelcoming from the moment I arrived. As someone dining alone, I felt dismissed rather than valued as a customer. The atmosphere may be beautiful, but good service matters just as much, and sadly this visit left me feeling uncomfortable instead of enjoying my time there. I hope management takes customer service more seriously in the future because no one should feel unwelcome for simply coming in alone to enjoy a meal or coffee. read more

We were honestly pretty disappointed by this place. My parents are locals and had highly recommended it. We were in the area doing some shopping and stopped in for lunch. We got a croque monsieur, a gourmande crepe, and several little goodies from the pastry case. Everything tasted stale. My husband's bar for going out to eat is "can I make this better at home?" and the answer fur everything we got was a resounding yes. The croque monsieur was especially disappointing, made with low quality ingredients as opposed to the nice crusty French bread and tangy French cheese you would expect. The crepe was nothing to write home about, and the treats tasted bland like something you'd get at the grocery. All of this at the prices they are wanting is unacceptable to me. The locale is adorable with indoor and outdoor seating. The decor is a little over the top French but I didn't mind. The staff was helpful and accommodating. I would probably choose somewhere else to eat next time. read more

Mademoiselle Paris - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

I stopped into this cute little cafe for an afternoon latte pick-me-up and felt welcome the moment I walked in. The girls behind the counter kept calling me Mademoiselle, which made me feel like I was in Paris without the jet lag. A tempting pastry case was on display, and if I hadn't been so full from lunch, I would have ordered a croissant or scone. My latte was exactly what I needed-hot, flavorful, with a nice vanilla note and a strong coffee kick that got me through the ride home. I'd absolutely come back, maybe next time for breakfast or lunch, and definitely another latte. There's outdoor seating and plenty of free parking since it's located in a shopping plaza. I'm so glad I stumbled upon this place. read more

I have been here several times in the last six months and it doesn't matter if you are sitting inside or out, service is terrible. It takes awhile for anyone to seat you, then longer to order a drink. The last time, I sat for a long time waiting for an iced tea refill and I finally had to stop a different server to get more tea. Food is good. Every single time, the service is bad. so bad, I didn't leave a tip. I was put off because if you leave a 5 star review on Google, you get something free. read more

We stopped by this place for a quick breakfast craving crossiants. On first impressions the outside was beautiful and upon entering we were greated and seated right away. The servers were vibrant and took our drink orders right away. We got a vanilla iced cold brew latte and a caramel iced cold brew latte. Which were overall okay. They were very sweet and lacked a strong coffee flavor. Next after looking over the menu it didnt take long for the servers to be back ready to take our order. We decided on Gourmande (crepe with nutella, banana, strawberries and whipped cream), and the Eggs benedict with prosciutto and a side salad. Our order took 15 minutes to come out after ordering, fast service. And the food looked amazing. The crepe first was thin, light and had a perfect balence of nutella and fruit. It overall wasnt too sweet, and was a perfect sweet breakfast. Very delicious highly reccomend! The eggs benedict looked phenomenal. There was lots of prosciutto , and the hollandaise was to die for, it was perfecly made. The side salad was a little unconventional but the lettuce, and vegetables were fresh and delicious. The dressing was one of my favorites it was well balenced and a perfect homemade dressing to this salad. I would recommend this dish as well. The food was a perfect fast and easy place to stop. While we didnt get any, they had a whole display of fresh pasteries and bread and seasonal coffees and drinks. We enjoyed our food so much, and would definitely go back to try some other dishes and drinks. read more

First, we loved that there was live music (we came on a weekend). I really enjoyed my crepe, locally farmed eggs, crispy bacon, and a nice fruit bowl. My daughter crepe stuffed with spinach, smoked salmon, and cheese was too too salty. Her soup could also be a bit thicker. We didn't get to try any pasties, but they do look amazing!!! read more

It's a great place to grab brunch or lunch. It's easy to park. The service was great, but I noticed other tables were given bread baskets--we were not. I had the ham and Swiss crepe with potato soup, which was delicious. My boyfriend had the brie and Swiss croissant and enjoyed it. read more

Went for breakfast this morning. Very disappointed. Eggs (scrambled) were tasteless and watery. Hash browns were very flat dry- as if they had been frozen. The large crepe was flat tasting as well. The bacon was very good and cooked perfectly. But really, how can you screw up scrambled eggs. I couldn't eat them. They do have a very good lemon meringue tart which I've had in the past. The one star was for that. read more

Ambiance is a balance of outdoor French charm grounded by the sound of horns honking in the adjacent shopping center parking lot to remind you that you are indeed in Sarasota FL. Service is slow but fine. Just visit when you are not in a rush. It's far more enjoyable that way anyway. My quemper crepe was VERY rich with a lot of goat cheese and quite salty salmon. I think most people would enjoy it very much but my palate is sensitive. Be prepared to enjoy something a little more French and a little less American and enjoy the experience! read more

I want to give it a five because I love the idea and the presentation of the food was wonderful, but, I'd like to comment on the food so explain the 4 stars. The lobster bisque was flavorful but a little too thin. It didn't feel like a traditional bisque. Almost made me feel like they were making it more thinned out to keep the cost down. Although, I'm not sure that is true. The eggs Benedict was beautifully presented and the croissant it came on was delightful, but the egg was way over cooked. It felt like chewing on rubber. Actually, I didn't know an eggs texture could get that rubbery. Someone really really tried to overdo it haha. The hollandaise sauce was a little too tangy. The tang was overpowering the taste of the hollandaise. Overall, I hope they stay and business and keep providing the community with an ethnic experience. Maybe have tastings for the crew when there is something new and the crew needs to be honest with the chef. I didn't try the pastries because nothing jumped out at my but I'm glad they have it in the store for a nice homey touch. If I was looking for somewhere to eat, I would recommend this place for sure. And I would come back to eat here and try something new. read more

Came here for a quick breakfast. Was seated and served quickly. I had an omelette with spinach. It was nicely crisp, not mushy. Pastries and coffee excellent. Pretty reasonable prices for Sarasota. Convenient parking in the mall lot. read more

Don't waste your time here! My friend and I were so excited to come here. We planned our whole day out adventure around having breakfast here. Drove in from Tampa and could not have been any more disappointed in our decision! We were seated immediately upon arrival. Given menus and visited 2x by the waitress to see if we were ready to order. We were ready by her second visit. I ordered the ham and cheese crepe (gluten free) and my friend ordered the Croquet Mademoiselle. The food took FOREVER to come out. The place started to get a crowd and there appeared to be only the 1 server. People came in, sat for a bit and got up and left due to not being acknowledged and served. One lady at a table behind us even stopped the server and asked if they could get service. Our food, no lie, took 45 minutes. When it arrived it looked AWFUL, especially my supposed crepe! It didn't even look like a crepe...the outside was all broken apart. I would've been totally embarrassed to have served that to anyone! Upon tasting it, it wasn't warm at all and the cheese wasn't even melted. Disgusting. My friend also had no béchamel sauce with her food. She had to go get the server for her to come over for us to explain our displeasure with the food. She said they were having issues in the kitchen but would get the sauce out and take my food off the bill. She asked if I wanted them to make a new one which I declined. I took her up on the offer of a plain crepe. That took about 5 minutes and it was out. I took a bite and it was gross! Wasn't hot and very chewy, not cooked fully. Most definitely needs improvement and a lot of it. I think this place has potential but they need staffing to be able to accommodate visitors and better cooks. The menu sounds so appealing and the baked goods in the display look so good. But after this visit, NO THANKS! read more

We went as a party of 6 for restaurant week at 6pm. Overall the service was very slow beginning with our welcome, drinks, taking order and food service. We ordered various steak frites and duck breast entrees. Our entrees were trenches with pepper! I did express this to the waiter. The only item that was fairly good was the escargot. I do not recommend this place. read more

So good we had egg Benedict with brisket and kremper. Fabulous choices for brunch. The fruit was SO fresh and delicious. read more

I wish I could give zero stars. My recent visit to Mademoiselle Bakery was quite disappointing. Our server Julia, was pretty unfriendly, she didn't even respond when I said " good morning " or bothered to say thank you. To make matters worse, the coffee was watery and lacked any flavor, it was incredibly bland. I had high hopes for this bakery, but based on this visit, I cannot recommend. Stay away! read more

A quaint slice of European coziness. Welcomed at the door with a friendly smile. We stopped in after dinner and had a delicious cappuccino. I particularly enjoyed seeing all the European (French) decor. The pastries look amazing and the croissants are flaky and delicious. Very nice place to visit and highly recommended! read more

Mademoiselle Paris - Cappuccino - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

Such a wonderful place! We stopped in for a cappuccino, which was made perfectly. The staff is friendly and attentive. Listening to them speak French was a delight! The pastries that were available looked delicious, get there earlier for more of a selection as some items were sold out. They make their pastries from scratch early in the morning. The atmosphere and ambiance is so pretty, romantic and inviting. Lots of Eiffel Tower decor and black and white photographs of elegant looking people. The white linen tablecloths and red napkins rolled up with the tables set is warm and inviting. We look forward to visiting again. read more

We were so disappointed in the chocolate/raspberry Buche de Noel, a traditional French Christmas log cake, that we ordered this year from Mlle. Paris. It was tasteless, very dry, with barely a hint of raspberry filling. Was it even freshly made in their bakery? Hmmmmm. For the price, we'll patronize Rendez-Vous or C'est La Vie next time for all our pastries and Buche de Noel logs at Christmastime. read more

I was extremely disappointed in the food. I just happened to park out front and it sounded very interesting. I wanted onion soup, but was told it was only available at dinner. I ordered a crepe with mushrooms and Swiss cheese. The mushrooms I swear came out of a can. They had no flavor at all! Although the second half of crepe had a different mushroom, which was good. The caesar was not authentic. The dressing I believe came out of a bottle that I could buy at the grocery store! very disappointed as I was expecting a real French cafe. Have eaten in many in Quebec City and Montreal and this was nothing like those!! Will not be returning! waitress never checked in after serving food! read more

Great ambience, food delicious... the best truffle risotto and very food French onion soup... we also had escargot- very good ! Service was excellent. Definitely recommend. read more

We were very intrigued by this place and just had to give it a try. We shared a nice sandwich for lunch because we wanted to save room for one of their delicious looking pastries. The sandwich was so nice and great taste and the bread was fabulous, after all it is French! The pastry we tried was a black forest type with this delicate cream that was so good. The staff was so friendly and explained everything to us since we were new there. This is a must return place for us. read more

We had a great breakfast. I had a great a great mushroom omelette and my son had an amazing crepe. Everything looked so good can't wait to go back to try other menu items. The restaurant is in a strip mall w lots of good options. Inside is so cute reminds me of our time in Paris. The waitstaff is great. And we're so kind and knowledgeable about the food. Also the hot chocolate was amazing rich creamy delicious. read more

Awesome restaurant ! Love it ! Our server was really friendly and provided an excellent service

Traveling from out of town, shopped a little at UTC and it's 1:30 so we decided to split a meal. We started with coffee, cappuccino with oat milk and caramel syrup for me, latte for him. We were both very happy with these. Lunch was a bowl of soup, chicken and carrots, and the Coq Breton crepe with a buckwheat crepe which we split. It had tender chicken, a delicious light cream sauce, plenty of mushrooms and dove spinach. This is a lovely dish. The soup came out piping hot and was brothy with a strong carrot flavor and bits of chicken and veggies. A bit too salty for me but good. We then went to the bakery counter and chose an assortment of croissants. read more

This was a spur of the moment decision, based on where we were in Cooper Creek. There is a lot to like about Mlle, starting with an all-day bistro style menu. Breakfast, crepes, sandwiches, paninis and more. They host wine tastings and music on a regular schedule. LIVE MUSIC : WEDNESDAY, FRIDAY & SATURDAY : 5:30PM - CLOSE Happy hour 5-7 daily with $6 for all glasses of wine The baked goods include 1/2 case of outside made and the other side baked in house, including beignets, croissants and other delightful pastries. Prices reflect today's reality and service was warm and friendly. We ordered the Chaud Saucisse (spicy lamb sausage with melted Swiss cheese and Dijon mustard on a delightful crusty baguette) with a side house salad -- and. Croque Mademoiselle with smoked salmon and Swiss cheese. The sausage was delicious but the ratio of bread to sausage was way off - one thin sausage per 1/2 baguette. Better would be both sausages on one-half baguette. The house salad could have been fresher, with lettuce browned all around the edges. My wife really enjoyed her salmon. The space offers a nice patio in front and a more utilitarian interior- they could do more to bistro it up. Try it if you're in the hood! read more

My wife & I often like to go out for breakfast and after going to other breakfast restaurants in the Sarasota/Lakewood Ranch area we discovered Mademoiselle Paris at UTC and have made them one of our regular go to places for breakfast. It's a cute place that in some ways reminds me of eating in a French bistro in Paris but it's not a small place and the service is fantastic. Their crepes are out of this world and the egg sandwich on a buttery croissant with Swiss cheese is to die for. There are so many delicious choices on their menu but these are two of our favorites. Did I mention they are also a French bakery with lots of fresh pastries and desserts? Their tiramisu is truly special. Give them a try, you won't regret it. read more

Everything here looks appetizing but it's not! I highly recommend for you not to waste your money at this business. From the crepes to desserts they taste awful. No flavor whatsoever. read more

Hubs and I love French pastries especially macarons, so when we saw a French bakery near our hotel, we had to check it out. Mademoiselle Paris is an adorable French restaurant and bakery. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. It's located in the Shoppes at University Center. We were greeted right away and were helped by a pleasant lady. She was helpful and patient as we asked lots of questions about the the wide variety of pastries they offered. They all looked beautiful and tempting. We decided on six macarons, two different types of cakes and two lattes. I could have easily ordered more pastries, but held back. The coffees were good, strong. We exercised some self control and waited until later that evening to indulge in the pastries. Everything was divine! The cakes were soft, moist and were not overly sweet. The macarons were fantastic and the flavors were spot on. Get some! read more

Made a Valentines reservation. Had to enter a CC to confirm. During checkout was asked if I wanted to book pre-fixe or standard reservation. So I chose standard menu. Arrived and asked for a menu. Waitress said we are only serving pre-fixe. Mentioned the website and reservation. She went and asked someone but still said only pre-fixe. We left. read more

I was born in paris. I lived over there until a couple of years ago. This place only has a French name. Lot of the food is Americanized. Prices are ridiculously high ($14.60 for a Nutella/banana/strawberry crepe. Even in a French tourist area you wouldn't get ripped off like that). I had good experience with BASIC patisseries but that is about it. Majority of what we all had at our table would be unanimously ranked a 1 or 2 out of 10 comparing to... a French restaurant being French. read more

Have been here before, but thought we would give it another chance, but unfortunately, disappointed after this last visit once again. Poached eggs were cold and seemed like they had been taken out of refrigeration rather than made fresh, when both poached eggs were on the plate basically untouched waitress did not care to question why they were not consumed when she took the plate away. Also, we were left waiting for over a half hour at our table before another waitress did ask us if we needed anything and we did say we were waiting for our bill. Honestly, the wait staff and kitchen here does not really seem to care about quality. Bottom line there are better places in LWR area to get European baked goods, breakfast and lunch. read more

We went here for the first time for brunch and did not think the food was something to talk home about! I had the quiche and it didn't have that French or homemade taste. The pastry also did not taste fresh. My husband wasn't happy with his food either. Very mediocre in my opinion. read more
