A tiny French-leaning sandwich and pastry counter with outstanding baguettes and rich butter; delicious but pricey for the size, minimal seating, and street-side setting.
Maison Matho delivers exceptional food quality anchored by a house-baked baguette and rich European butter that elevate simple sandwiches into memorable bites. Consistency shows some variation—early-day bread excels while later service yields softer texture—and cramped seating by a busy street limits the experience, preventing grade A territory. Strong ingredient focus and loyal following make it a worthwhile neighborhood destination for quality French sandwiches and pastries.
One caveat: Parking is often difficult along Melrose; expect to circle side streets
