Great place to get Chinese food with a modern intake! You can tell that this place is very luxurious, great service and tasty looking options on the menu. Out of everything that we got, the peking duck was the best as the duck was fatty and juicy, as well as the condiments that went with it was very flavorful. Next favorite for me was the chef selection dumplings, very good but at the same time tasted like a dumpling you can get on the frozen aisle. The honey walnut shrimp had an interesting yet weird wasabi taste to it that I didn’t particularly like as much as I should’ve. The shrimp toast was pretty good. Overall great time here but we put birthday on the open table reservation, but they never said anything about it.

My husband and I decided to try out Maison Chinoise for lunch and we were pleasantly impressed by the decor of the place. For cocktails I ordered the Lychee luck and the Dragon lady, both amazing! Food wise we ordered the ox tail dumplings, the duck fried rice and the crispy crab wontons. All great choices but the one thing I would go back for are the ox tail dumplings! The best dumplings I’ve had in a while. Our server Everant was very attentive and well informed on the restaurant chain and the menu. Will definitely request him again. Highly recommend him as a server.

I celebrated my bday here yesterday. Typically im not a fan of Chinese food but wanted to give this place a try since its new and is a sister restaurant to Lombardi (which i love). Everything we ordered was amazing! The service was great and the restaurant is beautiful!!! It is small so reservation is probably necessary but we had a reservation and we were sat as soon as we walked in. The best thing I tried was the Mongolian beef. Also, the presentation was beautiful! I will definitely be back.

Celebrated the 3rd day of Lunar New Year here with my family and we had a blast! Our server, Anthony, was the highlight of the lunch! He was lovely, amazing, and professional. Some dishes were delicious. The only “let down” was the xiao long bao which was tepid. In contrast, the Beijing duck and the fried rice dishes were an outstanding surprise. We’ll be back for sure!

Wanted to love Maison Chinoise but left feeling it was just average. The space is beautiful—upscale decor, nice vibes, very aesthetic. The receptionist was a bit snobby when I asked to sit on the couch area (the place was 90% empty on a Saturday lunch), but our waiter was great—friendly young guy with a great attitude who made up for it. Started with the chef’s selection dim sum sampler and the lobster dumpling was the only standout. The red har gow didn’t impress, the quail egg siu mai missed the mark—a single quail egg completely overtook the flavor. The pork soup dumpling was a letdown: wrong meat texture, soup base was off, and the skin thickness wasn’t right. The crispy wagyu beef roll is basically a dense meatball wrapped in deep-fried rice paper—super crispy but no particular flavor. The black pepper filet mignon was the highlight though—surprisingly tender and really stood out. Chili Szechuan prawns were fine, nothing special. Ended with the Mandarin Field dessert which was great—impressive presentation with dry ice, a soft light orange-flavored mousse with little chocolate rice crispies for texture. Overall: ambience is great, food is hit or miss but not mindblowing, and it’s overpriced for what you get. Nice spot for the aesthetic but I’d temper your expectations. Also heads up: menu prices are cash prices—paying by card adds a few percentage points more, which feels a bit nickel-and-dime-y for an upscale spot.
