   The restaurant accepted a reservation at 21:30. Then after seating us, they started to rush us through our dinner, carrying outside umbrellas past our table, and clearly indicating that they wanted to close. A waitress dropped a fork. Instead of picking it up, kicked it along the floor through the restaurant to the back. The white wine was warm. So too the sparking water. This lack of attention to service, spoilt excellent food that was truly well-prepared and a delight. Such a pity about the service, because this could be a special place.

   Ma Maison is a classic French Bistro. If you enjoy French food well prepared and served, this is your place. They have interesting choices, especially their daily specials. For the quality of the food, it is very reasonably priced as well!

   Delicious food with excellent service. The place is small and so the tables are somewhat close together. We could hear the conversation at the next table too easily.

   Ma Mason is consistent in good food and always a lovely experience. It is the closest one will come to a bistro in France. Cannot go wrong with a dinner at Ma Mason.

   Service went above and beyond. My party was an hour late getting in but they kindly allowed me to wait at the table and frequently assured me it was okay. The staff's genuine warmth and understanding made me feel so welcome and at home. Food-wise, we have dined there twice and so far like the seafood more than the meats. The scallops were excellent with the perfect sides for a light yet fully satisfying meal. The coq au vin was good there, but better as leftovers after more time for the flavors to soak in. The chicken itself comprised a drumstick and thigh, and the thigh was a tad overcooked. The lamb chops (only available on Sundays) were good but not inspired: a solid basic dish for those who like it simple. Our friend had the foie gras and said it was perfect. The bread was plentiful and warm. I would note that, like a neighborhood Parisian restaurant, tables are close together. We will be back!

   Been dining here for years and by far the best French in the city! Never fails to impress from the Foie Gras, Duck Magret, Veal Chop or Mussels you can’t go wrong! Even the bread is fresh, warm and wonderfully delicious… Macaroons are made in-house, the crepe is wonderful but go for the soufflé… Highly recommend, you won’t be disappointed

    Four of us were celebrating a 60th birthday. We enjoyed all of our appetizers, salads, entrees and desserts. Our server made excellent recommendations when we asked her to. Bar is limited but our wines were perfect and so was an after dinner drink. Would definitely return. It felt like an authentic French dining experience with some American additions.

    Had a great time. Only unfortunate thing is that we sat outside and were constantly solicited by a homeless gentleman to give him money. While we did help the gentleman, he got argumentative with the waiter and it got awkward and uncomfortable.

    Knowing we were celebrating our anniversary, they greeted us with small glasses of sparkling Rose. The pate was incredible and the beef wellington and braised short ribs absilutely fantastic. Good cocktails and good wine selections. And the service was perfect. Highly recommend this place.

    This authentically French restaurant is a real find. Having lived in Paris, I felt like I was “home.” The selection of dishes includes traditional favorites that aren’t always easy to find, especially at such reasonable prices.The dishes we enjoyed were oysters, foie gras, sweetbreads, cod in sorrel sauce, and chocolate mousse. Wine choices are good and reasonably priced. The option of carafes is welcome. The place is busy and crowded, and therefore noisy, but that’s part of the ambiance.

    We went to this restaurant a couple times during a business trip for both lunch and dinner. Both times the food was excellent, service friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was very elegant and excellent for our informal business conversations. Seems to be a real gem in this section of Boston!

    We really wanted to love this place, as the reviews were great. They were obviously understaffed with 2 servers taking care of all the inside and outside table. The hostess seemed to be stressing everyone out. My husband had the lamb chops. Which were quite good. The French onion soup didn’t live up to “best in Boston.” Wr both experienced intestinal distress… from the steak tartar we believe. We wanted dessert, but had sat so long waiting for our server, that we paid and left.

    Ma Maison is a real gem. The restaurant is small, but they also have two outdoor seating areas. We sat inside on a busy Friday evening. Our server, Eunjoo, was especially pleasant, attentive, and efficient, despite how busy it was. I had the pan-seared ray fin, which was delicious and perfectly prepared. Cocktails, wine, and dessert were also excellent. Can't wait to return.

    This was our second visit. The escargots were superb as usual. Delivered very hot with an outstanding garlic/butter sauce. Plenty of excellent French bread to enjoy the dipping which is mandatory for this dish. My Cherry Duck Magret was very well prepared as ordered. The cherry sauce and the cherries were plentiful and a great accompaniment. The only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars was that my wife's short ribs were a bit dry. A side order of french fries, however, did not disappoint. Cherry Clafouti was a great ending to a memorable meal. There is an upbeat vibe in the restaurant which is nice, but the tables are very close so that a table for 2 can feel a bit claustrophobic. We learned more than we cared to know about medical programs and billing thanks to a business dinner between 2 men seated at the adjoining table. I I would definitely recommend and we will visit again.
