I usually love going to this restaurant. It is close to my main shopping areas and the staff and food tend to be pretty awesome. Today I was truly disappointed. I ordered the Beef Bourguignon to go and after getting home found it to be totally inedible. The beef was burned pretty badly, and I thought that the rest would be somewhat salvageable, but somehow the potatoes were also burned? Hard to see how as they seem to be of the mashed variety, but it appears that they burned and whoever plated it attempted to mix the burned parts in to hide it. I have ordered this dish before and enjoyed it, but today was not a repeat performance. Sad that it was a waste of 14$ as I did not find out till I finished putting away my groceries and the restaurant closed.

I'll start off by saying I've been to LM's in San Antonio and Dallas. Have been going for years, mostly for breakfast. This La Madeleine looks nice and is very clean, and the managers/staff are exceptional. But when I went in for lunch the other day, I ordered a pasta dish I have ordered in the past and it was awful. Nothing recognizable and very flavorless for a wild mushroom sauce; it just tasted off. The manager accepted the return with no complaints (as they should, which is why I say the service was excellent) and got what my wife had ordered, a tuna salad croissant sandwich. It was runny and also flavorless. Our plates had a disgusting cream at the bottom due to that. We ended up feeling ill less than an hour later. Kitchen staff, please step up your game. Too bad we won't be coming here again.
