Description: Maison Carlos is a continental restaurant with an emphasis on French and Italian cuisine. Carlos and Lanie Farias opened Maison Carlos in December of 2002. After seven years on Clematis Street in downtown West Palm Beach, the couple made the decision to move their establishment a couple miles south to the El Cid neighborhood. They wanted a smaller restaurant with more of a neighborhood vibe. The new space has only eleven tables and is open for dinner only. Carlos is there every night, seating people, taking orders and is very hands on. Being open only for dinner Carlos spends his days shopping for the restaurant, selecting only the freshest ingredients.

We had a wonderful dinning experience last evening. We celebrated a birthday with a group of seven family members. Everyone's food was great. From the complimentary zucchini chips to the final pouring of limoncello the evening could not have been better . Snails in a bucket and lobster Mac and Cheese were fabulous and shared by all. Wine list compliments... More

This is the third year in a row that we've decided to vacation on Singer Island. We are always on the look-out for great restaurants. My husband is a huge fan of Italian cuisine and it's been challenging to find great Italian food in the Palm Beach area. As a result of reading numerous reviews, we decided the we would... More

Can't say enough about the attentive and warm service at Maison Carlos. Carlos himself checked on us to make sure we were enjoying everything. Our waiter was a delight. The grouper and penne and vodka were delicious and the key lime pie the perfect way to end the meal. Buon appetito!

We arrived at 630 pm and were the only table seated. When we left at 830 most tables were full. The cheese soufle appetzer was outstanding, as were our entrees of grouper and the lobster Mac n cheese. Service was attentive but not rushed, allowing us to enjoy a lovely bottle of red wine throughout our meal. Carlos brought us... More

The reviews are so good we had to try this place. The service was very nice. The decor average at best. The food was OK.. We ordered a lot of food and nothing was very good. Some of the food was even below average. The prices were high for what you got even if it was excellent, which it was... More

After dining in a slew of mediocre places in Palm Beach County, we finally found a place that we're excited about ! Well prepared food in a quiet civilized setting that allows for conversation. Add to that , the best key lime pie ever!!

This was a spur of the moment choice and turned out to be relaxing, comfortable, good food and service in a welcoming atmosphere. You feel as if it is a guarded secret by some and you are one of a select few that can make it your own "regular" haunt when you want intimate personal time at dinner without the... More

This dove-gray, peaceful space with simple, classic seascapes worth long looks is beautiful and beautifully appointed. The food is just innovative enough, and delicious. The staff is smart, welcoming, funny, and excellent at their work. A meal here is a serious pleasure. We also really enjoyed the beautiful sunset sky through the mindfully big uncovered window.
