    Short Rib
    Lena L.

    We had an absolutely fabulous meal at Maison the other night. Thank goodness I'm not lactose intolerant because we had two cheesy appetizers that were to die for! We started with some delicious fries, a cheese soufflé and this fancy sounding cheese fondue type pot where it created this long string to be added to yummy toasts or the French fries. Next we had the short rib and steak frites entrees. The short rib fell apart with just a fork and was complimented with the smoothest potato puree I've ever had. Husband had the steak and it was cooked perfectly. We ended the meal with three deserts. The creme brûlée, the chocolate soufflé and my daughter had ice cream. I would highly recommend.

    Ambiance in the main dining floor. Beautiful decor!

    My husband and I had an incredible experience celebrating our anniversary here, from the moment we walked in to the moment we left. As soon as we entered, we were greeted with friendly, warm smiles by the hostesses at the host stand. They were professionally dressed, welcoming, and seated us right away. When they asked what brought us in and we mentioned our anniversary, they immediately made us feel special. Shortly after being seated, we were surprised with a signed anniversary card from the staff, such a thoughtful and personal touch that truly set the tone for the evening. The ambiance of this restaurant is so nice! We had made reservations for downstairs, which was moody, romantic and the perfect atmosphere to have a date night/anniversary dinner! Our waitress, Katie, was absolutely wonderful, kind, attentive, and very knowledgeable. I'm currently pregnant and unable to have alcohol, so I really appreciated that there were several mocktail options available. Katie recommended the Fizzy & Lifting mocktail. While I enjoyed it, it was very tart and lime forward. When I mentioned it was a bit too sour for my taste, Katie graciously brought me a Sprite to mix in, which I truly appreciated. Her service was attentive and genuinely caring. For appetizers, we ordered the scallops and the aligot. Both were outstanding! The scallops arrived with a beautiful presentation under a large shell and were perfectly seasoned, glazed with butter and lime. Honestly, they were the best scallops I've ever had. The aligot was served by Tyson, who brought great energy and friendliness to the table. He explained how to enjoy it spread over the baguette, and it was absolutely delicious, comforting, rich, and memorable. For our main courses, my husband ordered the Poulet Pommes Frites à la Moutarde. The chicken was cooked perfectly, and the mustard sauce was incredibly flavorful. I ordered the steak frites, which were also excellent and nicely seasoned steak, crispy fries, and a sauce that was full of depth and flavor. For dessert, we shared the banana caramel profiteroles, which we loved. The pastry puffs filled with frozen banana ice cream and drizzled with caramel glaze were the perfect ending to the meal. To top off an already phenomenal experience, my husband ordered a cappuccino to go. Katie wasn't initially sure if to-go cups were available, but instead of saying no, she went above and beyond to find one for us. That level of effort and care truly stood out. The only small disappointment was not receiving a small anniversary dessert or plate with "Happy Anniversary," as some restaurants do. However, this did not take away from the exceptional service and overall experience. We will absolutely be returning and recommending this restaurant to friends and family. Truly top notch service, incredible food, and hands down one of the best dining experiences in Minnesota.

    Such a cute French restaurant. The host/owner spoke French which added to the experience! Did not order food. Went for a drink with a friend. Bartender was nice! Will be back to dine in. It is on the spendy side but very nice vibe! Menus: https://maisonmargauxmpls.com/ We both ordered a Moscow Mule with Tito's. We didn't love the mule. It didn't have much ginger flavor. We wouldn't order it again. Parking: paid metered parking, valet available Staff were nice!

    This is a beautiful French brasserie in the heart of North Loop. If you are looking for a date night, family celebration or just an evening to remind you of being in France this is the spot. The ambience is perfect, the food is delicious and the service is Exactly what you would expect Overall, this place is very clean, poised and upscale. The service is professional and timely. There is not a parking lot, but there is a lot of metered street parking as most places have in the north Loop.

    Came here on Saturday around 430pm or so for some drinks to start the evening downtown! Perfect starting location. Such a nicely situated bar, well staffed with everything you could possibly imagine. I felt like I was in Paris sitting in this bar. A nice dining space too with lil bistro seating throughout. Our bartender was helpful and quick with our drinks, zero issues. The prices weren't bad either. Did not get any food, only drinks, but would definitely like to go back for some food! Well situated downtown location wise as well.

    I cleared out the space.  It's my gift.

    I enjoy Maison Margaux. It exudes elegance in a multifaceted space, catering to a crowd that can accept more than flannel and baseball caps. Maison Margaux allows me to feel like an adult, with professional service and a sultry design. Chris was our bartender/server at the downstairs bar on a lonely, Wednesday night preceding Labor Day weekend. He was warm, knowledgeable and saw himself as a professional, helping people have a wonderful experience at Maison Margaux. The problem with Maison Margaux is that the menu can disappoint. My vichyssoise was more of a potato purée accompanied by a pile of croutons, with none of the taste or consistency of a classic vichyssoise. However, my steak au poivre was delicious, the frites done perfectly. The Bouillabaisse was also very tasty, its rich broth complimenting the seafood. Maison Margaux lacks consistency, and that's why I can only award four stars. However, I will return, because I enjoy a modicum of sophistication in a world that shoves casual down my throat.

    French toast now this is right here bussing 10/10

    This place gets a 8/10 the reason why I give it an 8 is because of the potatoes lol. Anyways the entire experience from service to environment and food freaking amazing.

    Drinks were good, but overpriced. The Short Rib was perfect, but everything else on the plate was bland. The vegetables needed much more salt, especially because they are big pieces with little surface area. The burger was delicious, but the fries weren't crispy shortly after being served. The salad felt bare; there wasn't nearly enough dressing. Maybe 20% of the greens/vegetables had dressing. Overall, I wasn't that impressed. The vibe is modern and trendy... but it was also weird... when you come out of the bathroom there's a picture of a naked women's butt. It's a massive picture. On a brighter note, the staff was very friendly and engaging.

    I'll keep it simple and short, since there was already lots of reviews here. Service- it was great, server was calm, fast and excellent. Food - We got Cauliflower Soufflé ( 6/10 ), Piperade ( 10/10 ) , French Onion Soup ( 7/10 ) , Cornish Game Hen ( 7/10 ) , Seasonal Bass ( 8/10 ). Love the restaurant vibes and location, I mean come on it's in North Loop. I'll post pics for new dishes.

    Sad vegetables, both burnt and undercooked hashbrowns, and sad flabby bacon

    Our Mother's Day brunch was terrible. The eggs were sitting in a puddle of bad seafood water, the hashbrowns both burnt and undercooked, and the bacon actually white. My poor dad who booked the reservation was mortified. My grandma wouldn't take a second bite.

    Beautiful space, excellent service, great bar(s), but the food is??? Our first impression...very nice! Love the interior style of this restaurant. Truly is beautiful. The service was incredible! I'm giving this review four stars mainly because of the service. They know the dishes, the drink menu, and take pride in their work. The food was okay. And okay was a little disappointing. We ordered the Short Ribs and the Steak Au Poivre. The Short Ribs lacked flavor. The root vegetables were prepared al dente, which our server did describe it as such. I thought that I would try it but undercooked root vegetables are not enjoyable. The steak was prepared perfectly on a beautiful helping of pomes frites. The fries were the most flavorful item on the table. Honestly, everything needed more seasoning. I could tell that the table behind us felt the same because they asked for a salt shaker. Wish I would have asked as well. The food wasn't bad by any means. Beautifully plated and looked delicious. Unfortunately, it didn't taste as good as it looked. Everything was good enough that we will be back to try again. Tip: check out the bar downstairs! Salon Rouge is a great spot for a drink and they serve the menu from upstairs too!

    We celebrated our anniversary here and to say it was an amazing experience would be an understatement. This place absolutely delivers on every level. First off, the interior is STUNNING--elegant, cozy, and chic. It's also in a prime location, with plenty of bars and dessert spots nearby to continue your evening. From the moment we walked in, the hostesses were so friendly and welcoming, immediately setting the tone for an amazing experience. Because it was our anniversary, they treated us to complimentary champagne, a thoughtful touch that started our meal on a high note. The bread service was incredible--warm, plentiful, and quickly replenished. They don't hold back on the bread, and we loved every bite. For appetizers, the frog legs were outstanding--crispy and perfectly cooked, but the real standout for us was the tomato and onion pipérade. It was incredibly warm and flavorful. As for mains, the short ribs were solid: tender and fall-apart good, though I wished for just a bit more flavor and more vegetables to balance the dish. I'd suggest exploring other menu options when you visit, especially because everything sounded incredible. To complement our amazing food, we also had wonderful drinks. My old fashioned was perfectly crafted, and we were treated to samples of Natterjack whiskey since they were getting diners' feedback on if they should bring it in-house, which they absolutely should! Maison Margaux made our anniversary so special with their thoughtful service, beautiful space, and delicious food. It's a must-visit for a memorable night out in the North Loop!

    Cheese omelet - came out only lukewarm, Brie rind was not taken off, and the potatoes were so small (and cold)

Located inside the Foshay Tower, there's street and valet parking available! We entered through the W hotel lobby and took the elevator up to the 27th floor!

It has Prohibition-themed decor, but I wouldn't quite call it a speakeasy, as there wasn't any guise to entering or accessing the space. My only critique is that the space is quite dated, but not in a cool way. It could really use an update to the paint and interior to maintain itself as a "destination" versus just another hotel bar with a view. The bartenders were quite friendly and helpful during our visit. We had an Old Fashioned and a Paper Plane during our visit! Both cocktails were absolutely delicious and perfectly made. Now, at around $26 each, I would expect that level. Overall, a cool, historical spot to grab a drink!

Fortunately, the Earth Bowl at Star fits the bill and will probably be a go-to on future trips. It's a nicely seasoned, balanced, and clean-tasting assortment of greens, other vegetables, grains, and optional protein (shrimp was a good choice). And the generous pour of cab sauv complemented it well. Food aside, the space is very inviting and calming (and geometrically interesting, being circular in design), perfect for catching up on some reading during my meal. Service was also pleasant. The only thing is that there wasn't much else on the menu that appealed to me personally, so I'm hoping the bowl isn't something temporary or seasonal. In any case, I look forward to my next visit.

I finally went to the bar to ask if we had a server, and the bartender pointed to a staff member on their phone behind the bar.
