First time I’m rating this place four stars just for two things - the 45 minute wait for food to be served on a busy Sunday brunch was a bit long for me. I typically don’t mind because this place is known for extremely slow service, which is typical of French dining establishments in Paris. But when people who sat down about 15 minutes after you did and then were getting their food first before yours, I started getting antsy. I also thought the quiche, which I’ve had before and was delicious, was just a tad too salty for my taste this time (but that’s just me).

Probably the worst experience as a customer in a restaurant that I have ever had. The waiter had to be called over for each and every thing we needed such as placing our order for appetizers, again for the entrees and lastly for the check. The place was empty and we still were treated as if we were nothing. The waiter looked at us the entire time and still did nothing. I requested a manager for assistance and the service was no better. Our orders were incorrect and they still tried to over charge us for things that were not provided without an explanation or apology.. I honestly probably will never go back even though I used to really enjoy this place. The employees were not busy so it wasn’t a matter of being over leveraged or over extended. They probably have lost a customer in me and every person I know closely forever as I will be sure to Share my experience with anyone that will listen so that they don’t encounter the same poor service for their hard earned money.. I don’t know if it’s racism or incompetence but neither is acceptable.If I could give it an even lower rating I would. Absolutely awful but never again!!!! Please don’t waste your money going there! Rahim was the server and he is by far the worst! Just awful.

Decent food, service and price. There was a long lull between apps and the main course. You have to go through a gauntlet of people in the bar area first to get to the restaurant portion. The restaurant itself seemed old, dirty and extremely noisy. The bathroom was horrible. Worth going once, wouldn’t go again.

Waiter, Max ,was not very good. We are regulars and first time disappointed. Took him forever to get everything had to ask each time. Made excuses but others around us were served quickly. Didn’t ask about how we liked our meat cooked, came out too rare. I tipped well bc I go often but will move out of his section.

Host was rude. Waitress didn’t know the difference between sprite and ginger ale. Needed a chainsaw to cut through the meat. Only redeeming factor was the bartender. Poor guy has to make up for his co workers inabilities. Whether you are visiting or are a local - take your $ somewhere else.

From service to food to drinks, this restaurant was amazing! The host and servers were friendly and prompt. We had a limited amount of time to eat because we were attending a show at the Apollo. Everyone made sure our food and drinks arrived quickly. The food was simply amazing and the cocktails and wine were delightful. I also loved the lively and diverse atmosphere. Highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning.

The vibe is here is hip but low key, neighborhood spot. The cocktails were perfect, as were our appetizers and main courses. For my taste, the tarte tartin was a little too much apple, and not enough caramel and dough - but we still ate every bite! However, the highlight of the night was our server, Max. Each time he came to the table was a delight. He was attentive, funny, and just a joy.

I told the waitress that I could not eat garlic nor onion. One half of my fish was stuffed with garlic, and I realized after eating the first half, and then had a mouthful of garlic. I did get sick, but I was trying to be nice and said that I ate enough. I was shocked when they charged me after clearly stating that I have a garlic and onion allergy. Every other time things have been outstanding there. This time not so much.

The Aga and Begum Playneuron walked into Harlem to have dinner at Maison Harlem. We had wonderful starters: shrimp and crab cake, escargots (whose sauce with soaked up with MH's excellent, crusty French bread. We had a spectacular Sancerre at a reasonable price, minerally, crisp, flavorsome. Then we shared a rather mediocre cassoulet - the sausage was uninteresting as was the duck. The bean ragout which is the heart of cassoulet was tasteless. An incredible disappointment. Service was great, the vibe exciting if noisy. We have liked Maison Harlem in the past, and will try again since the starters and wine were terrific.

I have been to Mason Harlem a few times and have always enjoyed the food. This was a date with my son and we wanted a friendly place in our Neighborhood with great food and not too noisy so we could actually talk. This fit the bill. The cocktails, the soup & main corse were all delicious - and we could hear each other which helped to create a lovely time of connection.

They never miss! My best friend is visiting from North Carolina and was really craving French food. I told her, “Do I have the place for you!” Tried escargot for the first time(never thought I would do that, and I’m so glad I did) and beef tartare. Both were delicious, with rich sauces, and crusty warm baguettes. The duck confit is my go to for my entree, but anything else I’ve ordered has always has been flavorful and offer generous portions. Neighborhood gem
