| - Came here for brunch and was seating without a problem. The patio area seems to be the place where people want to sit, as it was almost at capacity but almost empty inside. We chose to sit inside. It had been a while since I'd dined here and never for brunch. I was not disappointed.
I had the best Croque Madame ($14) ever! The bread was just so buttery with a light crunch. The sandwich was so simple yet made really well. The ham, which I find on the saltier side, was not salty at all! And the egg on top (over easy) was cooked perfectly. I definitely recommend this if you are a fan of this sandwich. In addition, it came with their fries that I love so much. They look like flat wonton chips and come crispy.
My friend ordered the special that morning, which was a Duck Hash. Unfortunately, it was not as good as my sandwich. The dish was way too salty, though certain bites seemed okay. The bites that were not salty did taste good, so it was a shame that the salt was so overpowering in most of it. It had a nice blend of herbs and came with homemade English muffins, which were definitely better than the store-bought kind. I had the fresh orange juice, which tasted like it was not freshly squeezed but store bought. I've notice many restaurants will call their OJ freshly squeezed when it comes from a carton that says "freshly squeezed." This does not count! Not sure if Mon Ami does that, but it didn't taste fresh.
Service was good, and I'd definitely order the Croque Madame again! Prices are affordable, too.
