Maison Blanche - Modern French restaurant in Longboat Key - 2605 Gulf of Mexico Dr, USA

Maison Blanche never disappoints! My second visit reaffirmed its excellence. The dishes were consistently delicious, and the service was top-notch. The cozy yet sophisticated ambiance adds to the overall charm. A must-visit for an outstanding dining experience 👌 🙌

What an unassuming gem of a restaurant. Hidden in the key, you would drive past it. Doing so would be a mistake. Simple elegant interior, eloquent and punctual french service. Adding an amazing pre fixed menu and a wonderful wine list. Make sure its on your list. The blue crab and avocado was bright and fresh, the tuna delicate and savory. With a wonderful cheese selection.

I received a recommendation from a chef friend who said "This restaurant would have a Michelin Star if Michelin came to Sarasota" Absolutely agree! Chef and his wife are amazing and the food speaks for itself. Instantly one of my favorite restaurants!!!

Amazingly delicious food paired with stellar service make Maison Blanche the go-to for French cuisine on the Gulf Coast of Florida.

Been coming here for years. They opened my palate about French cuisine and French wine. From Bordeaux to Burgundy, they got it all. Ambiance and service are amazing, so are the food and drinks! Highly recommend for someone who is looking for gourmet food in Florida!

I’ve read numerous “outstanding” reviews of this restaurant but after my first experience there for my birthday just a couple of weeks ago, I truly didn’t find anything exceptional about the experience. The decor was bland and average at best. They don’t have a liquor license so forget having a cocktail! Although it’s located directly on the Gulf of Mexico you couldn’t tell that from inside being surrounded by white curtains. The prix fixe meal choices were limited and not that inspiring at $85.00 per person with the most desirable items offered at a ridiculous “up charge”. The food was good but not exceptional. The service was also good but our waiter was juggling 4+ tables. In summary, for the $300+ cost per couple for an anticipated “top of the town” dinner…unfortunately Maison Blanche missed the mark for us.

Atmosphere is brightly lit and very close seating. No privacy and hard to have intimate conversation. The food however was fantastic, the pictures speak for themselves. Service was also great.

I’ve seen all the restaurants up and down Sarasota and Bradenton. For me this is the best value for money spot by far. The service, ambiance and food is on a different level compared to other “high end” restaurants. They took a page out of European fine dining places and planted on longboat. I would highly recommend this place. (But no too highly otherwise I’ll never get a spot there again)!
