Delicious sweets and lovely staff!
Super yummy but a bit pricey
Le Macaron in La Jolla might get a bit of flak for being pricey and sure, you could buy a dozen grocery store cookies for the same price as one macaron here… but you’re also in La Jolla. Location matters, people. Inside, it’s spotless and charming, with a true French flair thanks to the actual French owner and baker (so, yes, your croissant does come with an accent). Every macaron flavor I tried was perfection so fresh it’s like they were made just for me (and maybe they were). The mille feuille? Buttery, flaky, and so good it almost made me forget the parking situation. Worth a stop if you’re in La Jolla and want to treat yourselfñ
The staff are extremely nice and friendly. The macarons are colorful but not top quality--lumpy and gritty. I'm not sure if they are using lower quality ingredients or taking shortcuts on the baking. Too bad! We did not try the chocolates or the ice cream.
The family was wanting a sweet treat after spending the afternoon at La Jolla coves and this shop fit the bill. Lots of macaron options but I enjoyed the Gelato. Would have loved to try the pastry options. Definitely a great find and will keep this spot on our list next time we’re in the area.
Delicious
Beautiful little shop with high end treats to sample!
The staff was very nice. She was patient with our indecisiveness.
We ended up getting 12 macaroons, a mini chocolate cake, a mango fluff treat, beignets, and a blood orange pop.
Everything was so good!!
The only thing I didn't prefer were the beignets-- but I'm bias after having legit beignets in the French Quarter NOLA.
We got a variety of macaroons-- pistachio, strawberry/key lime, chocolate, vanilla, bubble gum, mango, mint, just to name some.
We would definitely go back. We love trying new things and this place did not disappoint!!
I don’t usually rate but have to step in here after seeing the one-star reviews: this place is great! Owner was delightful to speak with, the macarons were excellent - very fresh, and the truffles were amazing!
At $19 for 6 macaroons I expected them to at least taste like… well anything really.
We got coconut, birthday cake, Biscoff, mango, raspberry and salted caramel. If it weren’t for the colors we wouldn’t have been able to identify a single one, because NONE of them tasted like the flavor names.
Now I will say the cookies were very soft and felt fresh. But most definitely not worth $3/cookie since they had zero flavor.

I really liked this cafe and the service, very nice and delicious. The Napoleon cake was very tasty and unusual and after the cappuccino and this cake I immediately became kinder. I recommend you try it, you will like it, I'll come back here again
The desserts are excellent.
Cute shop with delicious macarons. They had a variety of flavors to choose from. Pricing was good and the atmosphere was warm and friendly.
We simple loved it. The double expresso was delicious. The macaroons were outstanding. The pistachio eclair had a heavenly texture. You have to try it.
Stopped in to grab some macarons for dessert, absolutely delicious and the staff was super friendly. Highly recommend to grab a few
