Maldon & Mignonette: Reviews & Ratings
One of the best restaurants on Long Island! Beautiful environmental, great food, excellent service. Not to mention chef Rob is incredible with food allergies! I have celiac disease and I am very sensitive to gluten and cross contamination. I have been here several times and never had an incident. Always feel great after I leave here! Many items on his menu are naturally gluten free or can be made gluten free. 10/10 recommend
Wonderful meal at Maldon & Mignonette in Sea Cliff. The service was great, the place small and charming and the food delicious and reasonable. We started with the M & M appetizer, which had Crab Cake, Bacon & Peanut butter, a Scallop Sando & polenta bites. The crab cake was more like a crab salad, but delicious and tasty. The bacon - OMG, and with peanut butter, delish. We also had poleta stuffed balls with goat cheese and a spicy remoulade. So good. For our entrees, the duck was medium rare and perfect. The lasagna, wow, Speck, Veal & Wild Mushrooms. Flavors were great and smokey! What a cute spot. We will be going back. Service was great and it is always wonderful to have the chef / owner visit your table to check in.
Amazing food and service here and Maldon & Mignonette! Their saffron ravioli was a burst of unique flavors, and the M&M sampler allowed me to savor a bit of every appetizer. The burger with bacon jam on a brioche bun? Absolutley divine. The small local staff offered exceptional service and warmth, creating a homey atmosphere. Don't miss out on trying something new and supporting this local gem that adds to our community's charm!
Amazing dinner experience!!! We met the owner and Chef, Rob who was incredibly nice, friendly and gave us awesome dinner recommendations! We did the three pasta course and one was better than the next! The pasta is made in house and it was perfect. Lisa our waitress was very attentive & made super we had everything we need. Thank you both for such a wonderful night, looking forward to many more meals there!
The food was amazing! I’m very picky with eating out because most of the time, I feel like I could make the food better at home. M&M is a place I’ll definitely go back to! The appetizer sampler was delicious and my ravioli was very flavorful. I love that they added a bit of a crunch as a topping for a variety of texture. The staff is extremely nice and accommodating, which makes the experience even better. I can’t wait to try their brunch soon!
I tried the Berkshire Pork Chop and all I can say is this has to be the best pork chop I ever had. That chop was juicy and tender. Cooked just the way I wanted it. The mash potatoes was the best and I definitely recommend getting a side of mash. The owner definitely showed me great customer service. He recommended me the pork chops and I’m glad he did. The drinks are definitely good too. I definitely would recommend this place to friends and family. This is a very nice low key restaurant to chill and relax with your coworkers.
I rarely leave reviews, but after the phenomenal meal I had at Maldon & Mignonette I HAD to share my experience!!! Right off the bat when you walk into Maldon & Mignonette you immediately feel welcomed by an extremely kind and warm staff. The atmosphere is so cozy and unique with the best 90s playlist you could imagine. After settling in with a glass of wine and reading the menu I realized the menu had seasonal options as well, which I LOVE! It really shows the personal touch that the chef puts into the delicious menu! Everything we had was absolutely delicious with a beautiful Instagram worthy presentation!! Our favorite appetizer was the whipped goat cheese and ricotta balls. We are still talking about them! Chef Rob was amazing as well! He was so personable and answered all of our questions and really helped us pick what to order. Every dish was so unique and delicious. We ordered the pork chops along with the gnocchi for dinner. It was the most flavorful and tender pork chop I’ve ever had and the gnocchi was made in house! From the appetizers and dinner to the best trifle I’ve ever had for dessert along with an extremely knowledgeable, friendly and attentive staff, my experience was 10/10! By far my new favorite restaurant!! We can’t wait to try their brunch next! Run don’t walk to Maldon & Mignonette!
I give this restaurant 5 stars because everything was great. The food was amazing! I’m the type of person that I love trying new food and I have to say this will be my new favorite spot. The waiter was very nice and the chef after we were done with our food he approach to us and asked us what we thought about the food! Also, what’s great about this place is every single season the chef is changing the menu! Keep it up! I definitely recommend this place! Support your local restaurants!
