CAFÉ MADDALENA

Why hasn't this place received a Michelin star — we dined here in July for dinner and were lucky enough to call last minute and get a table. Everything that came on the table was nothing short of excellent. The chef and the team here are doing a great job and we're grateful to them for our experience.

My family and I went there with much anticipation and left fairly disappointed. The food was good but not great. The service was horrible. It took about 1 hour after ordering to get our salads. We felt our presence was an annoyance. The waitress was unfriendly and not attentive. I will not go back. There are other places to eat.

Worth the trip!

under- welming. For almost $30..should have been spectacular. Our bill was $185.00 for 3 salads..4 bolugenes plates and 1 glass of wine..will never be back

My husband and I went there on Saturday for our anniversary. This was our second visit, but this particular visit was not as good as the first. To start, we had the tartine de jour, which was delicious, but for someone to share, there should have been an even number of pieces and not 3. The glass of prosecco was delicious. The beef tenderloin was season to perfection. The rest, I'm afraid, was seriously lacking. The thyme risotto had no flavor. The broccoli was cooked perfectly. My dish was the sablefish, bay rice, and carrots, all of which needed more salt/flavor. The rice was undercooked, and the burre Monte was good but needed salt. The fish was buttery/nice and flaky, but it was not seasoned and would have been better with crispy skin. The carrots were cooked but had a very strong char on them and again needed some sort of seasoning, even some salt would have been better. We had the blueberry angelfood cake for desert, which was delicious! I hope this gives some positive criticism considering we are locals and look forward to a nice place to eat. I look forward to more French inspired cuisine in the future. Also, please get ceiling fans. It was very hot inside and there was no ice in the water glasses.
