We eat here about 2-3 times a week. It's a great Vegan/Vegetarian/Regular lunch spot. She offers a variety of items and French desserts plus handmade macrons. Check out her menu! We have had just about everything on there all 4-5 stars. The Buddha bowls are delicious! Sandwiches are amazing. I'm surprised she isn't swamped with how good her food is. Well I'm having my second Buddha bowl this week. The hummus is made fresh and in house from scratch. If she has time, she will tell you about her ingredients. Needing a lunch? This should be your go to place like mine. read more

Cutest place! Decent lemon sorbet (like it more tart) and loved the gift shop. Bought an African market bag that was beautiful, broke in 15 mins but repairable. (Rivet was gone and one was bent) did not want to return it so I imagine that would have refunded but it was so gorgeous I decided to fix it myself. read more

Absolutely stunning! We are in town on vacation and it coincides with my husband's 40th birthday. I knew that I wanted to get a cake but I'm not familiar with the area. I emailed back and forth with Macaron Chef to place the order. They were so kind and gracious. I wasn't sure what design or flavors so I just asked for whatever the most popular one was and that we were doing black and gold decorations. The cake turned out even more beautiful than I imagined! It was delicious too! I couldn't be happier. This was above and beyond! read more

I was Celebrating my 55 Birthday on Vacation & ordered a Birthday cake I messaged back and fourth several times about the cake ' The day I pick up the cake it was in a big egg cartoon so I could not really look at it until we took it out of the box' the cake was Beautifully decorated but it said Happy 50th My husband was able to turn the 0 into a 5 But when it was time to eat the cake that's where it really went bad the chocolate filling I ordered was not inside the cake some thin layer of I am not sure what it was filled with? Some bland filling and very little of it & the cake itself was very dry it was one of the worst cakes I have ever tasted ' we contacted them & returned the cake for a refund' Hopefully they tasted it' and can learn from this read more

What a sweet surprise! Had the brie salad and Gouda Mac n cheese. Delicious!!! I will definitely be back. Be sure to check them out.

We want to thank the macaroon chef for going above and beyond the call of duty. We order a cake for our granddaughter's birthday, and we sent them a picture of the cake and they were able to accommodate us at the last minute. They did an extraordinary job on the cake, I must also mentioned that we live California. Within 48 hours they were able to bake and deliver the most beautiful and tasty costume made cake for our granddaughter who was beyond happy to receive the cake. Thank you Macaroon Chef! read more

I'm already a fan of The Macaron Chef from their FWB location but this new location in Destin is even better! They did such a good job with the inside decor and it's the same great desserts! I tried the Buddha bowl for lunch and it was fresh and flavorful. Do yourself a favor and try the carrot cake if it's available, amazing! read more

I used GRUBHUB for delivery, and all was prompt and accurate. What can I say about my favorite restaurant? Again, the most delicious, generous, fulfilling AVOCADO TOAST ever! Avocado , boiled egg, tomatoes, chives, bacon, topped with feta cheese with a sprinkling of lime. The most delicious coconut macaroons!! All their macaroons are delicious. And for lunch, the Buddha Bowl, or any of their sandwiches... I am always happy with my order from The Macaron Chef! Prompt response and perfectly delicious, always. I am glad you are here in our town. I have never been displeased with anything from your restaurant. I can only say,"Thank you, Thank you! Thank you! read more

Fresh, high quality ingredients make for a delicious sandwich. Macaroons and cupcakes were delicious!

Delicious food, very clean and cozy place! The staff is friendly, and the ambiance is great!

We go here for lunch often. The turkey cranberry Brie is to die for!! You can't go wrong with any of the baked goods. This is one of my daughter's favorite places. She loves all the goodies.

The presentation was beautiful and the food tasted so good! This place should be packed for how amazing it is!!

We found this cafe by accident, in the area for a doctor's appointment. We both enjoyed the Turkey, Cranberry and Brie Sandwich. It was not quite what we expected [no slabs of brie, cranberry relish] but was delicious: turkey, avocado, pear, with a spread made of cranberry and brie. The sauce was so delicious I wish they bottled and sold it ! The sandwich was of generous proportions, and came with a side of choice [chips, fruit, pasta salad, soup, etc.] -- we chose soup, asparagus and kale, which was also delicious. We didn't have dessert, but the desserts were tempting: creme brulee, chocolate mousse, and several flavors of macaroons. We were delighted with our experience, and have already recommended it to friends. read more

This place was amazing I love the Nutella macaron,the lavender blueberry and the birthday cake one! Definitely check this place out!

Ordered my wife's birthday cake from the Macaroon Chef when a chain supermarket told us "No, we can not make a lemon cake." We were blown away with the cake from the Macaroon Chef. Lemon cake, raspberry filling, and lemon flavored cream cheese icing. Also topped with macaroons. Oh my word!! It was so good that dieters had to have more. The leftover cake was little to speak of. I highly recommend the Macaroon Chef for your next event cake. read more

Stopped in here on a whim and I'm so glad I did! The place smells amazing - a savory, mouthwatering aroma. I was there for something sweet and why not a macaron? There were 5 flavors - I got a red velvet and a pomegranate. The red velvet was good but had a hint of refrigerator taste (hence the 4 stars.) the pomegranate was perfect though. The proprietor was very sweet as well. Be sure to give it a try if you're passing by. read more

I stopped by here to grab a bite on my way home. When you first walk in the place smells amazing. I ordered the roast beef sandwich with a side of pasta. They were both very tasty. I tried my first ever macaroon, the blackberry, and I am forever a fan! read more

Absolutely superb! I originally went in this bakery just to get macrons but the couple in front of me were raving about the food. So I decided to get lunch and I was not disappointed. The man and woman behind the counter were very polite and helpful. I ordered the turkey, Brie, and cranberry sandwich and it was divine! They added some avocado, bacon, and other fruits into the sandwich which offered more of a balanced flavor profile than other turkey cranberry sandwiches I have had in the past. The house coleslaw is delicious as well. I have yet to bite into my macrons but I have no doubt they will be wonderful. I am excited to go back and try more menu items! My compliments to The Macron Chef! read more

Macaroons are dry with little filling and a very limited selection, 2-3 flavors. I have been here 3 times and will not be back.

Delicious fresh food for lunch. Staff was awesome too. Highly recommend the sliders butt everything looked good!

This is an amazing bakery. I found out that it was my friend's birthday and I wanted to get something for her as we were getting together that evening. I took a chance and walked in. I needed something gluten free as she has allergies. I told them and they were in the process of putting together a Macaroon cake. I came back an hour later and it truly was a work of art! My friend was so thrilled! I will definitely be back! read more

The owner is so kind and provides wonderful customer service! I had the Turkey and Cranberry Sandwich and was so pleasantly surprised by the depth and complexity of flavor packed in the seemingly simple sandwich. The owner gave me a free cupcake with my lunch, and though I don't usually like cupcakes, hers was the perfect taste and consistency. Cannot wait to come back! read more

Don't overlook this little bakery. My sister and I had the goat cheese, apples, and pomegranate salad, it was delicious! We tried a chocolate cheese cake and the banana pudding, nothing was disappointing! Have to say the cheesecake was our favorite and we got a tres leche cake Togo! Scrumptious definitely coming back. read more

I ordered 12 macarons and honestly only liked a few of the flavors. Some of the macarons were exceptionally bitter and I had to spit them out. I have not tried their other menu items so this review is based on just the macarons. read more

There was a great assortment of little desserts, soups, coffee & tea, and sandwiches. I had a cranberry turkey sandwich that was delicious. She had some macarons set out to sample and they were all incredible. I bought three mini cheesecakes that were both beautiful and delicious. I'll definitely go back to try more. The woman who helped me was very kind and helpful. This is a great little place. read more

This little gem tucked away in FWB is a must visit for lunch or anytime if you've got a sweet tooth. Some of the best chicken salad I've ever had, and fresh ground Costa Rican coffee, WOW. Will definitely be returning! read more

Ok...the good part was that they make macarons and they had some REALLY yummy ones! The cookies were a bit inconsistent some perfectly moist in the center and crisp on the outside and others completely over baked hard and crumbly. We got a box of 12 mixed for $24, which is reasonably priced for macarons. The creme brûlée was the tits in flavor but not great in texture and consistency. The fruits were cooked perfect and put together in the French fashion with jelly in the middle, but the flavors were really really strong. Instead of a natural subtle raspberry, blue berry, strawberry flavors, they tasted more like jolly ranchers. Which wasn't horrible, just unexpected and artificial. read more

I can't believe such a great place is now in our neighborhood!!!! I brought my mother for a birthday lunch and found a charming bakery and café. I have some health issues that flare up when I eat foods with a lot of preservatives or chemicals and the menu was very considerate for people with my issues. My mother loved everything she ordered as did I. I had a chocolate espresso mousse that was pure heaven! The place is small but the atmosphere is very charming. The woman working (who I'm fairly certain was the owner) was polite and helpful. Overall experience was "thank goodness we have a cool, little, locally owned,restaurant here in Fort Walton Beach"! I will definitely be back! read more

Yowzers! This place is a hidden gem. Incredibly fresh food and an impressive menu. As a vegetarian, I always appreciate the rarity of finding an eatery that has several vegetarian options to choose from. This place will not disappoint for vegetarians and meat lovers alike! read more
