Best Desserts! 4/17/2012

I've been going to Maison Richard for years and I've never been disappointed by the quality of their cakes and pastries, always fresh and made with the finest ingredients. I liked their location on Robertson Blvd and now that they've moved their cafe on Melrose it is not as convenient as it used to be for me, but I am still going there to buy all my birthday cakes. Their fruit tarts, napoleons, eclairs, strawberry fontenels, chocolate mousses are my favorite desserts. In december their chocolate christmas logs are to die for! They also have a a large covered patio with plenty of seating, perfect for sunday's brunch or coffee and pastries in the afternoon. more

Delicious French Pastries 4/16/2012

Michel Richard has a great selection of delicious and savory french pastries, fruit tarts, croissants, brioches, pains aux raisins, brioches, apple turnovers... It's a great place to go to for breakfast and lunch (salads, quiches, omelets, pasta...). I also like to go there to meet my friends on their quiet outdoor patio and enjoy coffee and pastries in the afternoon with them! I usually order my birthday and holiday cakes there; the strawberry fontenel I ordered for my son's 6th birthday was a huge hit among kids and adults. I also ordered several times from them some miniatures hors d'oeuvres (mini quiches, mini pizzas, salmon feuilletes...) and surprise breads. I've never been disappointed by the service and their products. Their pastries and dishes are always made with top quality ingredients, fresh and super tasty. more

Always a great place 8/26/2006

Always friendly service and good food. (The management needs to tell people to keep their kids from running amok and getting in the way of the waiters and bothering other patrons.) Pros: Great food and service Cons: Watch out for the Eurotrash more

I like it 7/28/2006

If you like sweets and a nice place to have a cup of coffee, this is a nice place. Coffee is good, staff is nice. I take my breaks here, a bit expensive but worth the price. I tried the food here, it is good, but a bit expensive for what they serve. I recommend it. Pros: Good sweets Cons: Expensive food more

Great desserts! 2/13/2006

I have been searching for a cute cafe with great desserts for years now, and when I went to Michael Richard, I knew I found it! Try the Strawberry cheesecake, it is absolutely amazing. It's not your New York style thick cheesecake, but rather it's almost like a rare mousse cheesecake. The Tarts are also to die for. Especially the pear tart: with the flaky crust, melts in your mouth. The pasteries are great as well. The meals are good, but not excellent, excpet for the pouched egg salmon salad, which is also amazing. A great place to stop by with the girls for tea and cake! Park across the street (a block away) in the structure, since there's no parking around the cafe. Pros: great dessert, great service, relaxing Cons: a little expensive, no parking more

Best fruit tart in LA! 11/12/2005

I used to work a bloack away from Michel Richard and while it isn't my favorite place to have a ful meal, their fruit tarts, especially the rasberry, are unbelievable. Instead of gushy custard the fruit is layers on top of an almond cake base that is out of this world! The tarts come in all sizes from small individual ones to large ones for pick for parties. Not only are they georgeous to look at, but they taste amazing! Pros: amazing fruit tarts, quick service Cons: tough parking, pricey, ave food more

Hmmm, Verrry Interesting 11/9/2005

I was just driving by when I noticed this french pattisserie. I stopped off to check it out and found a little gem of a place. The people there were very friendly and amiable, which was surprising for the french, and I was very impressed with the quality of the food and especially the desserts. I highly recommend this little cafe to all. more

Usually amazing...... 8/16/2005

I have been to Michel Richard since it opened. Everything is always perfect, and I order their steak all the time. The waiters are usually amazing and the food is supurb. But a recent, HORRIBLE visit took me by surprise. I was expecting the usual. We came, and it was busy. When we sat down, a Hispanic waiter that spoke no English did NOT ask us for drinks and did NOT give us bread. Furthermore, my knife was filthy and when I called the waiter, he never came back. I had to get up and go to the front where a lady screamed about horrible service. I got a new knife, and had to ask someone 15minutes later to take our order. The hispanic waiter disappeared. Finally, the owner came out amd took our orders. Its a shame that this happened b/c it used to be my fav restaurant. Pros: good food, good parking, good crowd Cons: service is horrible!, slow, crowded more

croissant 2/22/2003

""the best croissant in town!!! ..""according to the los angeles times... and it's true. Quality & choice in their fine pastries are probably unmatched in LA. Restaurant food is also excellent for the price. Try the ""Onglet steak with schallots sauce"". more

A Dry Eclair is a Bummer 1/9/2003

Very dissapointing lunch at what is supposed to be a pocket of Paris in Beverly Hills. The frisee salad was just so ordinary. But the worst was a chocolate eclair that must have been sitting in the case for a week or so. You can get better from Sara Lee. What's the big deal about this place? Pros: Boring food, Expensive, Overly lit Cons: Nice menus more
