Macadons Cafe Renton — Restaurant in Renton

I want to start by saying I am obsessed with macarons. Everywhere I travel to, that is either the first thing I look up or it's already on my itinerary to check out. I've had them in New York, California, and tons more places, this is by far, the best!

I traveled to Seattle to visit family and was in search of macarons. Macadons showed up on Google as the highest rated so I had to check it out.

I was there for about a week and came back almost everyday for these macarons.

The macarons are so true to their flavors. It's almost as if you're eating that fruit or whatever the flavor is. I'm pretty sure I tried all the flavors that were there at the time. I know their menu has expanded since I've been, but oh my goodness! They're so good!

Fruity pebbles, coffee, cinnamon toast crunch, taro, durian (if that's for you 😂, it's definitely for me!), Lychee, Thai tea, just to name a few of my top favorites.

Don't get me started on their ice cream. So creamy and delicious! There was nothing in the store I didn't like. I definitely prefered the full size macarons over the small ones, but my kids liked the small ones more.

Everything tasted so good and it all comes down to flavor preferences. It's so good that when they started shipping nation wide. I ordered! They also do custom printing for birthdays or really anything!

This macaron shop is definitely the best I've ever had, I'm not exaggerating, I've had a lot of macarons in my lifetime! This is my personal opinion. The shell is perfect, the insides are soft and chewy and the flavors are spot on!

The last and probably most important thing I will mention is that the owner is an absolute sweetheart. She is so so nice and kind hearted. Going almost everyday while we were there gave us an opportunity to learn about her background and story. I love a good story and if you have a chance to go. Get to know Donna....

TLDR: you can sample the ice cream flavors prior to making a decision. Fruit flavored scoops are a win-win.

Imagine you are Remy from Ratatouille--close your eyes and let the macaron slowly melt in your mouth. Take it all in. The macarons are delightfully chewy but soft and the flavors are so delicate.

Nut Allergy Alert: Just in case you didn't already know: macarons are made with almond flour.

Parking: small shared strip parking along the street. We went on a Sunday and there were ample lots available.

Menu: pretty straight forward and located on the right wall.

Atmosphere: typical mini ice cream shop feel. No dining areas--mainly for grab and go. There is a mini shop for some merchandise at the window.

Service: order and pay at the counter.

Black Sesame: oooh a very nutty feel to this one. It's like a nut butter consistency. I love the hint of toasted sesame in it as well as the smoothness.

Lychee Ice Cream: very lightly sweetened and a hint of lychee tang just like the real fruit! I love the lightness of this one but it might be too

Mango Ice Cream: really smooth going down the hatch and the flavor tastes exactly like a champagne mango! Nothing artificial tasting here! Not overly sweet but oh so satisfying and refreshing!

Mini Macarons: I got black sesame, passion fruit, matcha, and ube. In my honest opinion all tasted very similar and there was only a very slight hint of the flavor they claimed to be--most likely because the cream inside was literally a dollop. So, if you want macarons where you can actually taste the filling, I recommend getting the standard size. The mini ones in my opinion are just for aesthetics and, of course, the cuteness factor.

I love the fact that there are gluten free options here. Also, how cool is it that you can customize macarons?! I think it would be a perfect gift for...

I stumbled upon this macaron store while searching for a special treat for my daughter's birthday. Being an out-of-state college student, I wanted to make her day extra special with delicious macarons. From the beginning, the customer service exceeded my expectations. I had a few questions, and the staff responded promptly and with genuine kindness.

Given the distance from where my daughter lives, I inquired about the possibility of shipping macarons. To my surprise, the owner generously offered to personally deliver them. Even though the store is closed on Mondays, he went above and beyond by delivering the macarons on my daughter's birthday, which was on Monday!

Not only did he ensure a timely delivery, but he also offered to include a birthday card with a personalized message, and this thoughtful gesture came at no extra cost. The owner's commitment to making the celebration special was truly heartwarming.

To add an extra touch, he even printed sweet messages on the macarons, again, completely free of charge. It's evident that this macaron store is not just about delicious treats but also about creating memorable experiences for their customers.

My daughter was overjoyed with the surprise, and the macarons were an absolute hit! I would give them 10 stars if I could! I can't express enough gratitude to the owner for going above and beyond to make my daughter's birthday celebration unforgettable. If you're in Renton or even in Seattle and craving exceptional macarons with exceptional service, look no further – this...
