Cafe Belle Madeleine

$ 6 pistachio strawberry cake with macaron on top. Very bland. Not worth it. Also got the strawberry filled Doughnut which was extremely too sweet.

Nice place for coffee in the morning while staying at the Paris Hotel. Usually a line but it moves along quickly. The ladies are very friendly and efficient. A nice selection of sweet stuff if you like to start your day with a muffin or Danish. Only draw back is they never clean the tables, you have to wipe them off yourself and some rude people don’t clean up after themselves so you may have to throw away other people’s tray and coffee cups, napkins, etc.

Nice little shop in Paris. Lots of tasty bakery treats and coffee drinks. I though the prices were quite fair and the quality was good (even in the afternoon). I love strolling through the streets of Paris, I mean Vegas! Fun escape for a sweet treat!

Ordered the crime brûlée and the flan. I don’t think they have any idea how these are supposed to taste. The flan was thick and hard, almost like a lemon bar and the crime brûlée was made to look like they’d caramelized the surface. Rip Off! Didn’t even finish them.

Tried the chocolate praline cake. Freshly made, w/​rich chocolate/​praline flavor. Downside: HORRIBLE customer service! Pastry shop cashier refused to give up a plastic cup (for water), claiming that customers may only get one cup per water bottle they buy. Seriously, what’s the cost of a single cup? $ 0.02!!! Obviously, customer value is not one of their top priorities.

Very unimpressed… Overly sweet. Things look better than it actually tastes. Coffee was so so as well. Thought a bakery inside of the Paris Hotel would be of much higher quality.

I left feeling unimpressed and annoyed that I wasted $ 16 dollars on items that were mediocre at best. Although their treats looked absolutely stunning, they left my tastebuds in horror. If you love overly fake tasting sweets that look pretty, then feel free to come here. I will not be back. Don’t forget the ambiance… I could almost close my eyes and imagine I was in Paris when I sat back and heard, «come on ride the train… Ride it! Choo choo!» Nothing screams small patisserie more than Quad City DJs.
Treats we ordered — opera cake and strawberry pistachio cake.
Strawberry pistachio cake had a tough cake and green cream that didn’t even taste like pistachio.
Opera cake started out good and then the sweetness built on my palette. After the 2^nd bite, I felt the need for an insulin shot.
Anyway, the look inside is adorable, and they have lots of cute little souvenirs you can buy, but as a baker myself, I have to say take a pass on this café.

Spent $ 25 on 4 items, not bad I can deal with that. But when I was told that they should stay refrigerated if not eaten in a half hour I asked the lady if she could just put the box in one of their many refrigerator units for that quick hour until I come back. I hadn’t even touched it. But before I can finish speaking she cuts me off and tells me no. So now I’m watching $ 25 melt away. Thanks a ton.

Decent but not great pastry. Mediocre coffee. 1 star because unbelievably they do not offer any water but bottled by claiming they do not have a source of clean water behind the counter.

After watching Jersey Boys I decided to stop in for some yummy treats to take home. I’d say it’s one of the hardest decisions when trying to pick something out because they all look so damn beautiful and delicious! Down side is they are a bit pricey or I would have probably gotten 10 things lol the staff isn’t exactly the friendliest so that is why I deducted a star but who cares as long as the pastries are good. I ordered a pistachio mouse cake with with a tart cookie on the top. I have no clue what is was called but man was it good. I meant to take a picture of it but I ended up eating the whole thing before that happened. They are one until 11pm so if I’m in the Paris again I’ll most defiantly stop in for another pastry.

Even if we are not staying at Paris we always make a point to come to this bakery.
The staple is the chocolate croissant. so good.
A bit pricier than a lot of places but we just love it. So many choices including salads and salmon sandwiches!
The ladies working here are always busy and worth your patience! I have never been here where there has not been a line up. This to me, speaks of the quality of this bakery!

Best cheesecake I have ever had. Very fresh and rich. The service was extremely slow, but worth it once you bite into the food!

I ordered the mango sorbet and it was great. However the workers were not great and so did not want to be at work.

French deserts that are awesome but the coffee quality is poor. I don’t think they use French coffee. I recommend the chocolate pistachio.

I have to say I was pretty unimpressed. Like past reviewers have said, the staff is not the most friendly. They are not outright rude but they talk to each other and don’t make every contact with any of the customers. Having never been to France but only know the stereotype… maybe they are trying to be super authentic?
I got the ham and Swiss pastry and it was bland. Well, it was bland once I finally got to hit into it since the cheese was so scalding hot inside.
It was a meal and experience that was very forgettable. The dessert pastries did look beautiful but I wasn’t tempered after the blandness I had just eaten.

Nice place to go! The Chocolate Paline was rich and delicious! Nice place to sit and chat! The ice latte was okay to me but wasn’t bad.

This is the adorable looking patisserie shop in the Paris Casino on the strip. They offer amazing looking pastries, sandwiches, coffee and more. I walked by this shop a million times and finally decided to try out one treat the chocolate mousse pistachio dessert because it looked terrific.
My first bite was offensive in my mouth. The slick looking chocolate glaze is really loose brown colored gelatin that I had to scrape off. Then I took a bite of the almost dry mousse that was dense and too sweet without a good chocolate flavor. My last attempt at tasting something yummy was to try the pistachio ribbon. Sadly it seemed to be just green cream. I do think it’s possible that this dessert was a few days old and might have been better when it was fresh.
Three small bites and this went in the trash.
Based on trying only one dessert I’d say the quality is equivalent to buffet desserts.

I was a bit disappointed this trip to the Café. I have been waiting a year to get back because the pastries are so good. I especially love the Bear Claws. This time I was there for 5 day and not one day did they have my fav! I asked and none of them had an answer as to why they were out! Service is quick but I did notice a bit of unhappy employees this trip as well. Coffee was great and hot and the slim selection of pasties were good and fresh as well.

After having lunch at the Eiffel Tower Restaurant, I stopped to take home some pastries for later. Usually the line is so long that I just bypass the place but this day, there were only a few people in line.
I got a raspberry tart and a chocolate mousse with raspberry topping and sides. The pastries were good. The mousse was not sweet. In fact, it was almost an unsweetened chocolate taste but that didn’t take away form it. My wife liked her raspberry tart the best.
Service was quick and pleasant and I was out the door within a few minutes. All in all, an OK place as long as it isn’t slammed with a lot of people.

Located near the guest elevators inside of the Paris hotel and Casino, this busy french café was a disappointment to our taste buds. Of course we were expecting to pay tourist prices when we ate here, but we still wished that the quality of food was satisfactory. I’m not going to lie, I was very impressed with their beautiful display cases of baked cakes and pastries, but looks are definitely deceiving.
Their cold sandwiches were about $ 9 each and they were pre wrapped in a clear plastic. They looked like they were made way in advance in a distant warehouse. We could tell they weren’t fresh as the bread was damp and soggy. The flavor and ingredients used in the sandwiches were not the greatest quality nor were they fresh.
We chose the Prosciutto and pickle sandwich and also the Chicken breast pesto.
The prosciutto was dried out, stringy, and nearly impossible to chew. The pickles were interesting and fun as they were whole mini pickles, yet they were awkward to eat because they kept falling out of the sandwich.
The chicken pesto sandwich had dry chunks of cold chicken breast, 1 thin piece of iceberg lettuce, and a tiny bit of mayo pesto spread that was so indistinct, I could barely taste any. It was a shame that they named it a pesto sandwich, when it really wasn’t.
Even the vanilla iced latte was a failure. They put it in a clear plastic cup with the awkward dome cap which made it spill out everywhere and got everything sticky. It also didn’t blend well with the condense milk that they put in it, so my first sip was a punch in the face of condense milk. Note– I didn’t taste any vanilla.
The croissant was very dry as well. When we tried to tear off pieces to share it, it would crumble into a million little pieces of croissant dust.
