The food and service are always amazing at Maison De Lu. Cocktail and wine options are always on point. The bar staff are well informed about pairings for your meals if that's in your interest. The bourbon selection is phenomenal as well. Whether you're seated in front, at the bar, in the restaurant, or in the grotto in the back the ambience is inviting and beautiful with local art on display. read more

Service was acceptable. Lots of servers... we pretty much never saw the same person twice, though. They forgot the soup, which was the soup of the day, enchilada soup. Borderline awful soup. The rest: airplane food. No kidding. You'll know what I mean if you get what we got. Spinach salad with salmon, and two really hohum dressings, neither of which struck me as homemade (and if they are, so sad). And, ham and brie on alleged focaccia. Only Pepsi products. And a "state best" bloody Mary that was no way near the best in the state. Probably not the best on the block. read more

Over the years, I've really come to like this place. My colleagues and I come to Ocean Springs several times a year for a trade show and always dine here on a Friday night, with reservations of course. You can sit out front , on the back patio, or if you like noise and excitement sit inside! We typically like the back patio but if nothing is available there, the front porch is just fine. It must be a good place to work because the staff seems stable. We regularly request Tara as our server but others have been great as well. It's nice to see familiar faces of people who remember you even if you dine there only a couple times a year. The menu is small but the food is always good. There are regular dishes and seasonal specials. Desserts are excellent and the drinks well-crafted. One issue subtracted a star. They recently started charging for the bread that comes out before the meal. No one told us and so we ate several baskets. A table for four gets the same bread as does a two top and so the portion for four is insufficient and thus more has to be ordered. read more

Wanted to try a nice intimate restaurant with my boyfriend and we decided to try Madison De Lu, in Ocean Springs, MS. The restaurant was clean with the tables set. When we arrived the host asked if we had a reservation? We said no bring that it was Sat around 6pm. So the only seating available was at the bar. However, outside seating was empty. That was a bummer but we decided to stay. The wine was a good choice along with the salmon, baked cauliflower, and sautéed mushrooms and onions. Great service and I would recommend. read more

Sometimes a place is just SO right, as Maison de Lu was for us today.. Multiple appealing seating options: outside on Washington, in the bar, or in one of two very attractive, inviting rooms, which we chose. Cool and comfortable with tall framed pelican prints and an amazing floor. Then there were the servers; our favorite was the young man who took care of us initially but it's an efficient, tag team operation so we had enjoyable, helpful interaction with multiple servers. And the food was exceptional lunch fare: we split a fresh, tasty house salad before my wife had a ham, Brie, and pepper jelly sandwich on GF bread and I had a grilled grouper poboy that was cooked so perfectly, served with crisp Kettle chips that were so good they might have been prepared locally. We each had a glass of a wonderful Oregon Pinot Noir. Reasonably priced. We've had a wonderful few days in Ocean Springs; this lunch was the exclamation point! read more

Always great! Service is spot on, food is the best. Love the specials. Desserts are a must! Arthur is the one to ask for! read more

My wife and I visited Ocean Springs recently and made reservations here for our last night. It did not disappoint. I love the vibe...kind of felt like I had been transported to Paris circa 1960. All the staff were very friendly and very professional. Jason was an absolute joy. My gin and tonic was absolutely perfect, the food was lick-the-plate delicious, and the dessert was heavenly. Thank you all for a lovely evening and a great experience. read more

As soon as you walk in the door you are greeted with smiles. We had reservations for 7 & were a little early and they sat us. We were in on a Tuesday night and the bar was packed and there were several tables seated. Our server and service was exceptional. We started with the sautéed crab claws. It's not your traditional butter it's more of a Cajun style it was so delicious and light. Soaking the fresh bread in the sauce was delicious. The veal and lamb chops were great and cooked perfectly to our ordered temperature. They have very unique sides the Caesar salad was light and refreshing. We didn't make it to dessert we ordered another round of drinks. Definitely a must if you're in the area. read more

My boyfriend and I went here for his birthday dinner last night. The dining room and bar area are so very cute. It's a small restaurant but a very intimate setting. Our server was fabulous- very friendly and welcoming. She also helped us pick out our meal. We started with crab cakes that were so fresh. I had the blackened shrimp which was amazing! My boyfriend did the New Orleans shrimp with crusty bread for dipping. All of our food was so well done. Plus the wine list is very good. We will be back for sure! read more

Delightfully surprised. We had a very quick overnight stay in Ocean Springs. The hotel was able to accommodate our walk-in request. Small charming restaurant. Everything was delicious.

I can't say enough good about this place! It's one of my favorites in downtown Ocean Springs!! It has a really cool vibe inside and out! The bar is a great place to hang out or grab a bite to eat.

The atmosphere is very comfortable. Casual dining. I came here for lunch. The food was superb. The menu switch is very often. The waiter and service was very excellent. I cannot complain. It's located in downtown Ocean Springs I've Government Street. Finding a parking spot is a little hectic but it's a bigger parking lot behind the restaurant. They were able to accommodate a party of seven with no problem. Overall , give me a five star. The appetizers were amazing. The crabcakes were wonderful. The tuna was on point and melting your mouth. I really enjoyed this. read more

We were wanting to try something new and left glad we did. I had the salmon and my husband had the pork chop. Both meals were amazing. We actually started with the goat cheese torte. It gets rave reviews for a reason, it's delicious. We ended our meal by splitting the coconut dessert. So light and decadent. We didn't make reservations so we had to sit at the bar. Jose was very helpful as well as engaging. The restaurant is small but the space is utilized beautifully. You won't regret visiting there...I promise. read more

We absolutely LOVE this place! if you are in downtown Ocean Springs and live or visit in the Gulf Coast you must visit!

Maison De Lu - Filet Mignon, twice baked cauliflower, veal chop in background - French Near Me - Ocean Springs, Mississippi

Lovely white tablecloth restaurant with a lovely small bar and if it hadn't been so hot we might have tried sitting outside on the patio. We opted to sit at the bar and I had a blackberry margarita and Laura had a nice cold martini. Hosea is a wonderful, funny bartender and has great knowledge of his products. He spoke of the new tequilas coming out in some different flavors. We had reservations so we sat at a table close to the bar and our server was Arthur. Arthur had some recommendations so we went with crab claws in butter. Laura had veal piccata and I had grilled pompano which was delicious. We also had roasted beets and double baked cauliflower which were amazing. And then(drum roll please) we had the lemon icebox pie. This pie just melted in your mouth!! We will definitely be back!! Amazing place, people and food. Thank you for a great evening!! read more

Wonderful food, service and ambience. Great vibe. I had the filet--perfectly cooked, very delicious. Great wine choices. One thing I would prefer--more of a potato selection. Cauliflower does not do it for me. I want a baked, twice-baked or mashed, and preferably a choice of the three. Swordfish was excellent, apps were 10/10. Highly recommend. read more

Stopped in for lunch yesterday. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about their menu. Goat cheese appetizer was outstanding as was the chicken BLT. Very fresh ingredients, great use of spice. We will be back to try other items! read more

For all the recommendations I read about this place, it did not live up to its hype. Caesar salad tasted like a bag salad, the red wine was warm, and we were a little rushed by the server. The crab cakes were tasty, as was the roasted cauliflower, but the veal chop and fish of the day were very underwhelming for the price. read more
