We love Ma Maison - it has become our go-to French spot. You sit side by side with diners who are clearly regulars. My husband enjoyed the Friday plat du jour of veal kidneys. I had the ray fin, which is nearly impossible to find on restaurant menus despite its utter delectability. Ma Maison serves it with capers alongside white rice and just enough Brussels sprouts, glazed carrots, and steamed broccoli to round out the meal.

Ma Maison is a consistently reliable, delightful French restaurant with reasonable prices, especially for the quality. The service is always very good, friendly and efficient. The menu has something for pretty much everyone. The scallops were excellent today and the bread is heavenly. While not the right spot for a rowdy crowd, it's pretty wonderful for everyone else!

Snagged a 5 pm table for two a few minutes before. The restaurant is cozy, very welcoming and the food and service are excellent. We had French onion soup and lobster bisque and pate. All delicious.

Excellent choice for a B-day dinner. Blake helped us with everything - from the complementary cocktails to the surprise mini cake with lighted candle to finish. In between, the food was cooked to perfection and presented in an appetizing fashion. This is one of the best options for french dining in Boston and it delivered every time we went.
