LA Madeleine's serves French cuisine and includes a French bakery. The setup is cafeteria style, where you move down a line making choices for your meal.Vegetarian options: Beautiful salads are available, and a few options can be made vegetarian.

Today, those days February 15th was my first time ever eating here and I absolutely LOVED it!

I ordered online to pick up. I questioned the size of the large salad and our conversation went down hill from there. I am accustomed to having the salad tossed and the chicken hot. It was prepackaged and looked to be half the size it use to be. Everything came out of the refrigerator, or so I thought. The lady on the register explained that I needed to request it heated. I didn’t know and I was running late now. The manager then decided to put her comments in and our conversation went down hill. She informed me everything was cooked fresh. I disagreed, how can chicken be cooked fresh and be cold??? I took the chicken out the bag and asked her to heat it up. She then told me she could refuse serving people that were nasty. So I agreed and told her to return my money an I would leave. It has been a day and only my purchase of $16 has been refunded. The $46.75 is still not refunded. This was my favorite place for salad and soup. Everytime I go to Mandeville I order the same thing. Sad I’ll have to find another place to bring lunch to to my father.

We love going to our local La Madeleine for a quick bite and great service!

The food is always yummy and I love stopping for a pastry and coffee. However, lately the service level has gone down and the atmosphere just doesn’t feel as cozy and peaceful as it used to. Still definitely recommend the food, but I’d honestly rather get it to go instead of eating there recently.Parking: Plenty of spots all around the buildingKid-friendliness: Not a high end place, very kid welcoming.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair parking spots, ramp to get inside, and plenty of open tables with chairs that can be moved out of your way.
