Perfect! Mt partner and I went there for magical dining. He had their mushroom cream soup, said it was the best! I had tuna. I love them! He had filet mignon with mushed potato, cabbage and string beans. I had salmon raspberry sauce which was fantastic. Fresh foods and fabulous! It was a great deal! The server was friendly with amazing service. The place is like old European style. We enjoyed everything what experienced today. read more

I enjoy chez Vincent, and now that I'm writing this review, I'm realizing it's been too long since my last visit. Everytime I've had the filet it's been delicious as their escargot is amazing. I've been slightly underwhelmed by the crème brûlée as once it was almost burnt on top. The service has been great each time I've been to Chez Vincent. And I really enjoy the proximity to the Avenue. read more

To say my experience at Hannibal's/Chez Vincent was an amazing time would be an understatement. I host different dinner parties quarterly and I had 24 guests dine in the wine cellar. The theme was a game of Clue and the wait staff was so accommodating with our crowd. Everyone was so helpful, the food was delicious, and the wine was paired nicely with the meal. Pictured is escargot, Caesar salad, chicken with a Dijon sauce and a raspberry/chocolate mousse. I know it isn't easy serving such a big group of people but they did a fabulous job! I highly recommend dining with them or if you're festive like me, renting out their wine cellar! Five stars all around!!! read more

Service Quality Atmosphere Sat evening 6 pm our res at Hannibals was changed to CV. Noiser 80+ decibels, crowded together, thru traffic to only restrooms. Went downhill from there and ended with incorrect tab! read more

Ambiance: 3/5. Service: 4/5. Food: 5/5. Ambiance and vibe were a little confusing and discombobulated, and the blue chairs were not comfy for me. But service was good. Loved Kathleen. I think they were a bit short-staffed on the Hannibal's side due to event. But she was sweet and the food came out quick. We had the escargot and spinach dip for apps. Split the mushroom soup. It was phenomenal. Then we had the venison and the mahi mahi special. Both were great. Second time being here and both were great. Will definitely be back. read more

Chez Vincent - Mahi mahi special - French Near Me - Winter Park, Florida

Delicious!! Fabulous. Their salmon is cooked to perfection, and all of their soups are creamy and delightful. Traditional French food .. exquisite . Great location just off park avenue . you can enjoy this amazing culinary experience while sitting outside . Service is also excellent. read more

First time here and it was for Magical Dining. Located in Winter Park where there were a lot of restaurants parking can be a little difficult to find. Upon arrival we were seated in a room that reminded me of a very elegant home. Most everyone there chose Magical Dining menu. We had the escargot for appetizers which were delicious. We followed that with filet mignon and potatoes for our entree. Slightly disappointed with the filet as it didn't have the good sear on the outside...seemed as of it was steamed beforehand. We ended with crème brûlée and chocolate cake for dessert which were good. Service was excellent too! read more

I came here with my family for magical dining and had the best experience by far here! The building itself has an old rustic feel, like a lot of history is in there. A smaller space with welcoming employees. Alescis was an incredible server who was very welcoming from the moment we walked into the restaurant. Highly recommend you come in and ask for him to take care of you. His timing was great and was very attentive to the table. As for the magical dining: We did the wine pairing coming to $65 a person and it was the best decision we've made. Every pairing enhanced the meal and experience. As a family, we've already spoken about making a trip out here again soon! read more

Everything was very disappointing. The bread was a bit crusty and stale (though I did like the sun dried tomato butter they served with it). The lamb was simply ok. I don't like that they took the meat off the bone for me and then smothered it in this rich blue cheese sauce. It was a weird sauce to serve with lamb to begin with, and then there was just too much of it. I asked for double vegetables instead of the starch, and I feel like I still only received one portion. The meal did not fill me up, and for the price, I was disappointed in the size and quality. My dining companions said the burgers they ordered were again nothing special. read more

Chez Vincent - Lamb with a weird blue cheese sauce - French Near Me - Winter Park, Florida

First time dining here, and was disappointed. I came in for Magical Dining to get a feel for this place, but unfortunately, wont be back. The food was lukewarm - all of it! From the appetizer (soup) to the entree (pork) to the dessert (crème brulee). So disappointing! The temp made everything taste bland. In addition, my friend's filet was tiny. The pork was very tender, however. read more

Have eaten here previously with very good results! But this time was disappointed by the 'Magical Dining' execution and especially the filet entree. Very little of the food seemed truly fresh, portions were quite modest and service was 'efficient' to the point of feeling rushed. read more

I visited Chez Vincent for a mystery dinner party called: Classified, this past weekend. While I've been to another restaurant in Hannibal Square, I had never been to Chez Vincent. So, I was quite excited to visit this restaurant and dine. The mystery dinner party was hosted in the wine cellar of the restaurant - which can be rented for private dining/parties. So, it was cozy and quaint and fit perfectly into our All Black Attire detective theme for the evening. The overall restaurant itself is charming. It has a lovely European feel to it that brought me back to my days of studying abroad in Europe. The wine cellar had a surprisingly modern twist to it but it drew in the grand archways used to transition to the wine storage rooms as a beautiful homage to a classic architectural feature. Overall, it was quite a stunning space and the brick... really just ties it all together. Coupled with the simple table decor (the hand towels added a unique flair), the space was fit for a mystery dinner! Speaking of, the dinner itself was quite tasty. In addition to having to solve the mystery of whom stole the Black Diamond necklace, with each new clue we were given, we got a new course paired with it. Starting with our appetizer, a salad, the main entree and ending with dessert. We had up to 2 to 3 choices within each course and mine (as I will also rate them) were as follows: Soupe de jour (mushroom soup), Caesar salad, Pasta with white wine cream (mushroom pasta), and the Creme Brûlée. All dishes were good but the standout dish was hands down the Soupe de jour. I am not even a mushroom lover (in fact, I do not eat them as their texture tends to turn my palate off). However, the flavoring of that soup was heavenly! I would go back for just that soup alone! I think it won my heart over because the mushroom was so finally chopped that I hardly noticed them. The Caesar salad was nothing to brag about. It was your standard Caesar. Dressing was good. The white wine (mushroom pasta) was also good and had a lot of the same notes of the Soupe de jour but it just didn't wow me as much as the soup did. Also, the mushrooms, were not as finely chopped and very visible - which took away a little bit from the overall experience of that dish for me. However, I love most pastas, so I definitely finished it. Finally, the creme brûlée was also nothing to truly brag about but it was good. I wished the hard top was hardened a bit more and the overall custard filling was just a tad more flavorful, but alas, it's one of my favorite desserts of all time, so I definitely finished it. All in all, the food was good! Finally, before I wrap this up, let me give a special shout out to the servers we had that evening as they were exceptionally great!! They went above and beyond (also special thanks to chefs). They accommodated for those whom had food allergies, were able to work within the cozy quarters of the wine cellar and kept up the light and warming banter we had that evening. I cannot thank them ENOUGH for aiding in creating a wonderful dining experience. All in all, I enjoyed my first visit to Chez Vincent. I'll definitely have to pay them another visit to get an even better feel of the restaurant but until then, this was a great first impression!! read more

Pleasant but So-So- It was a pleasant experience for the most part - a cozy spot. Food was good but not special. The service was good but he didn't make sure everything was OK after serving. One of the steak dishes was served rare instead of medium; and it took 10-15 minutes or more to get his attention. They fixed it but way too late. My fish almondine was overcooked but tasty. Crab cake was OK. Caesar Salad was fair. Creme Brulee was Meh. Overall, I'm not sure I'll be back. read more

My boyfriend and I decided on this restaurant for our monthly date night! Booked a reservation for a Thursday night at 7pm and glad we did. Once we arrived around the area, street parking was a little difficult but we called the restaurant and said we're running behind by 15 mins and they were very accommodating and said it was no problem. We entered the restaurant and the Chef actually greeted us. It looks like it was a very hectic night bc all the servers were scrambling around. We were seated maybe 10 mins later by the Chef. Our server was very nice and attentive! We asked for the Magical Dining Plan menu for a set price of $40. My boyfriend ordered the goat salad, mignon and creme brûlée. I ordered the escargot, salmon and chocolate cake. Oh my god, it was so delicious! The best escargot I've had in Florida! We paired our meals with Old Fashions and St Germain vodka cocktails. Definitely worth the price it for the quality of food and drinks. Only giving it a four stars bc we sat all the way in the back corner, where they leave empty dishes and cups on the table. Seemed like a busy night but it got a little uncomfortable with the dirty dishes piling up next to us. There was also crumbs I had to dust off my seat before sitting down. It wasn't the cleanest place, but the atmosphere and hospitality from the staff and Chef made it worth coming back for. read more

Hoping to beat the Valentines rush we made reservations for dinner Friday night. We arrived a little early but were warmly greeted and seated by the host. I ordered a large bottle of sparkling water which was promptly delivered. We made a couple drink selections. I ordered an house special old fashioned and Niki their house special cocktail Hannibal. Both cocktails were poorly executed. The old fashioned just tasted too heavy of melted ice and the Hannibal tasted more like a bland wine cooler than a sophisticated cocktail one would find in Winter Park. This was remedied with two glasses of pinot and chardonnay. My order - escargot, ceasar, duck a lorange, and espresso souffle. The escargot came in a reasonable amount of time and was hot, buttery, garlic, and parsley goodness. The ceasar salad was next and too came in a reasonable amount of time. This is what I would call a chopped ceasar and though they claim it came tossed in a homemade anchovie dressing, no such dressing was evident at all. Niki did report and I can confirm that the carrot soup was very good. Our entrees came shortly after my ceasar. Niki reports that she enjoyed the venison very much. I got to taste a bite and can confirm. My duck a lorange was expertly prepared and the brown sauce was not to heavy with sweetness. The potatoes were whipped like airy clouds and the vegetables were delicious. My only complaint would be the duck breast was a very small portion. The biggest disappointment was the espresso souffle. We were told as usual that it was required to order in advance. This is common most places but what we got was hardly souffle at all. It was flat, not risen, eggy dough and served with a cheap chocolate sauce which if it wasn't just straight Hersheys, I'd be surprised. I have had excellent souffle here and abroad. This was an utter careless offering. Skip the cocktails, salad, and dessert. Order apps, entrees, and wine. Me, I can't live without the first three so I probably will go elsewhere. read more

Tried out Chez Vincent last night to celebrate the wife for mothers day. Top notch experience all around. The food was delicious and cooked to perfection. the service was great and suggested some amazing wines to pair with our entrees. The decor and interior could use some sprucing up but kinda gives an old world French feel so i wasn't unhappy with it . This IS FINE dining so you WILL be paying for it. But for those who truly want some amazing French cuisine i would definitely recommend. read more

Loved everything about this place. #1 - Aleccis was our waiter and was perfect. Definitely made our evening very enjoyable #2 - The food is amazing! We had the filet mignon that was so tender you could cut it with a fork. Our friends had the salmon and loved it. The escargot, mushroom soup and tuna made great appetizers. #3 - We all commented about how we felt so relaxed and happy in their space. Definitely reminded me of France. My husband thought finding a good French restaurant would make me stop asking to go back to Paris but it's done the opposite and I'm begging! In the meantime I look forward to returning here! read more

We decided to visit Chez Vincent for magical dining, and it was such a lovely experience. Not only is it located in the beautiful WP area, but it was such an intimate and memorable time at our visit. Prior to starting our 3 course meal, we decided to start with spinach dip! Although I do prefer artichoke dips texture over the spinach's softer texture, the dip was very flavorful. It was easy to eat, and coated in a very creamy sauce. It was healthy and still left room for our 3 course meal! Starters: We got the escargots and seared tuna. For the escargot, the garlic buttery sauce was divine. The escargots were very fresh and a considerable size. For the seared tuna, it was coated and paired well with a fruity and sweet sauce. The texture of the tuna was great too! Entree: For entrees, we both decided to get the Filet Mignon! It was very tender and cooked to perfection. Although the pepper sauce was a bit spicy for me, it complimented the meat well. The side of mashed potatoes was also very buttery and delicious :) Dessert: For dessert, we picked crème brûlée and 3 layer chocolate cake. The crème brûlées texture was perfect with the hard caramelized sugar along with the creamy custard. For the chocolate cake, it was very sweet but satisfied our sweet tooth! The portions were pretty big as well. Overall, we were pleasantly pleased at our visit. We sat in very comfortable couches and lucky for us, sat right by the speakers and piano, which played a number of classics. Additionally, our server was excellent and paced the dinner well, so that we would have room for each meal. I can see us returning here for a number of years :) read more

WOW!!! We visited this restaurant last night with some friends and the service and the food was great. The place is split into two areas one side is the bar/ dining area with a person playing the piano. The other area is just dining. Both side had upscale decore and a romantic vibe to it. We arrive a little ahead of our reservation so we sat and had a drink at the bar. The bar staff was very friendly and made it a great start to our evening. After our drinks our table was ready and we were seated. We ordered from the magical dining menu. For appetizers we ordered the ahi tuna and the escargot. The ahi tuna was served drizzled with balsamic vinegar and the escargot was baked in a garlic and butter sauce. I'm not sure which one we liked better. We all agreed both was well prepared and very tasty. For our entrees we ordered the blackened grouper and the filet mignon medium rare. The steak came with a cognac sauce and I wasn't sure if I'd like it but I took a chance. Oh I have to tell you that sauce was so good and it took the flavors of the steak to another level. The grouper too was mouth watering served with a Grand Marnier sauce which was to die for. The presentation of both dishes were also well done and appealing to the eye. For dessert we had the three layer chocolate cake and chocolate and raspberry mousse, both delicious. After dinner we headed back to the bar side of the restaurant, had a few more drinks, listened to the piano player and had great conversation with others sitting at the bar. I highly recommend you try this place. It offered a romantic atmosphere with well prepared foods and awesome service. We are already planning to dine here again. read more

Visited Chez Vincent for Magical Dining. The food was fine, though nothing particularly memorable. Service was attentive, but our table was a bit uncomfortable and wobbly, which took away from the experience. Overall, while it was okay, it didn't quite stand out for me, and I found it too pricy. I will not be recommending to friends not will I be returning. read more

My favorite and the renowned French dining restaurant in Winter Park, Orlando. I have been dining at Chez Vincent for several years with my UCF undergraduate French professor Dr. Leticee. I absolutely love dining with her while practicing French, as it certainly brings back great memories of our time in Paris when I was a student 20 years ago. The food is divine and my favorites include the escargot and the pate. Chef Vincent is always so warm and personable!! He is always graciously greeting his clients and offering a shot of yumminess from his Effiel Tower. Great service amd wonderul lofe band Saturday evenings. Spectacular evening; Merci!! read more

Has to be one of the most unmemorable meals of our lives. We were vacationing in the Winter Park area and found out from friends it was magical dining days. So basically you can try different restaurants out with a price fix menu. The choices were good and price is very good. 4 of us went to dinner and the ambiance is old but ok. The waitress was the best thing of the night. I have dined at French restaurants quite a bit and I'm not sure I would classify anything we had as French. The sauces were very blah. The portions were very small but adequate. None Of the meals were prepared to proper temps or requests. I had pork tenderloin that may have been better at an Arbys. The deserts were even worse. Crème brûlée was warm and congealed. Crust on top was nice. The chocolate cake was inedible. I guess the saving grace it wasn't a full priced French meal ?? read more

It was a horrible experience. The filet mignon was very chewy and mediocre. Always check your bill. We were overcharged with the bottle of wine. The price did not match the listed price on the menu. The difference was $20. I do not recommend this restaurant whatsoever. Not worth the money. We waisted our money unfortunately. read more

Food and service were great! Definitely recommend! Enjoyed the Magical Dining menu - salmon and filet - wonderful anniversary celebration.

We came here to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday. When we first came in the restaurant, we noticed there was no music playing and hardly anyone else in the restaurant. It's not a big deal, but does slightly take away from the ambiance and made us feel a little uncomfortable. The server told us that we needed to put in our total order all at one time because they were busy (like I said earlier, we were one of the only tables in there at the time). Again, not a big deal but a little weird. We ordered the traditional Escargot to start, which was delicious and tender. For entrees, my boyfriend ordered the venison and I ordered the crepe with chicken. My boyfriend enjoyed his plate, and I enjoyed mine. The plating was a little lacking however. Overall, we enjoyed our meals. For the price, you'd expect the overall experience to feel more upscale than it did. It feels like nothing in the restaurant has changed since the 90s, so maybe it's time to revisit that. read more

Wow, I did not expect to be blown away by this restaurant given the subpar reviews on here. My bf randomly chose this place as they were one of the few restaurants that had any availability for Valentine's Day and I'm so glad he did. Chez Vincent had a preset Valentine's Day menu for $75/pp and it was 100% worth every penny. We were seated in the Hannibal Lounge side at a table with the most comfy, studded velvet chairs and the ambience was so cool and romantic. For our first course meal, we ordered the Seafood Feuillette (10/10, the sauce was so rich and creamy, the puff pastry was perfectly crispy & the seafood melted in our mouths), then we had a salad with goat cheese, berries and pecans (10/10, they did not skimp on the goat cheese or balsamic vinaigrette), and the Chilean Sea Bass (10/10, perfectly cooked and the sauce was TO DIE FOR!), my bf ordered the filet mignon & a rack of lamb (9/10, loved the peppercorn sauce), and for dessert we had chocolate mousse (8/10, it was a bit too rich for my liking). Overall, the portions were just right and the food was so flavorful. Most importantly, our server was very attentive. I'd definitely come back to try their regular menu! read more

We just found this place and have been back three times in a month. The French red wines are fantastic. The pate is very rich, but I'd rather not have the half inch fat cap on top. The escargot is my favorite. The filet dish and duck dishes are spot on. We have dined on the street and the setting was awesome. The servers are all attentive and will help if you have questions. read more

Why is no one talking about how horrible this place is?!! After being a winter park local for 10 years and never experiencing Chez Vincent decided to try for Magical Dining month. To start, I had the warm goat cheese salad with pumpkin seeds. The salad was dry, not tossed at all, and just scattered with pumpkin seeds. My partner had the ahi tuna, which he found upon the third bite found a piece of cartilage in his mouth. Our medium filets came out raw, our potatoes were hard to the touch as it it had been sitting in the heat lamp for a while, our vegetables tasted freeze dried. Lastly, our crème brûlée was like the consistency of jello. Our server was apologetic and kind, he seemed almost as if he has heard our complaints before. Don't waste your money here. Just so disappointed, so many other great restaurants we could have experienced tonight, instead we ate a total of 5/6 bites of food, paid $130 and leaving hungry. read more

At Chez Vincent. Took the recommendation from their website and went to their adjacent bar/restaurant Hannibal's for cocktails. We sat the bar with very few people, for approximately 15-20 minutes before anyone asked us if we had been helped. Went over to check in for our dinner reservation, they proceeded to try to seat us back in Hannibal's in front of a dirty, descending staircase, with sewer odors wafting. I asked for a different table, which was accommodated. We waited at the table for approximately 5-6 minutes before seeing a waiter. I really hope the food makes up for the service. So back again after the food. Escargot and goat cheese salad good, entrees of pork and filet mignon good. HOWEVER, i requested peppercorn sauce in the side. It came all over it. It was a bit too much for me: my filet was brought back with what they said was the same sauce, but truly was not. (Not a speck of pepper in it) I ordered crème brûlée. Oh my l, no where near any crème brûlée i have ever had. It was a wobbly, very eggy tasting custard with a very superficial, torch blown crust on top. Ugh! My dining partner's chocolate mousse was sorely lacking. In addition, their wine list is not up to date with r were other their menu or website,l. Their espresso machine in non-functional. This could have been an extremely pleasant dining experience. However it was mired with excuses, poor service, and extremely subpar desserts read more

Have you ever gotten food and felt that whoever put it together was thinking "Here, take this and get out!"? No? Just me? Even when getting or making a meal that didn't come out as well as I'd like, I try to focus on the positive. Unfortunately, Chez Vincent made it incredibly difficult to do so and I didn't really find any tonight. I'm not looking to bash on restaurants, rather just wanted to share my honest experience. Very disappointed with what was supposed to be our last Magical Dining meal of 2020. We ordered from Chez Vincent to go, which we thought would be a treat. Boy, what a let down. We ordered the escargot and blackened tuna. Neither came with any kind of bread or anything to eat with. The escargot was alright, but nothing special at all. The tuna looked so sad and messy. It didn't seem appetizing at all. My partner said the sauce on the tuna was way too sweet and could barely get through it (we don't like to waste food in our household so we do our best to eat what we have). I'm wondering if it's the same sauce used for the grouper I ordered as my main dish. The fish itself was dry which explains why it was drenched in this sickeningly sweet sauce. I was disappointed in the very small portions. The sides were like something you get on a free airline meal. My partner ordered the pork tenderloins which were smothered in a creamy sauce which was also very sweet (seriously, what's up with this place?). The mashed potato tasted like pure powdered parmesan you get from the can you forgot about in the back of the fridge. This was not an enjoyable meal at all. I think I'll pass on the sad looking desserts. The creme brulee looked burnt and the chocolate cake seemed dry. Unfortunately, we won't be eating at this French restaurant again. Any recommendations for a good French meal in Orlando? Update: As much as I loathe wasting food and it breaks my heart, I simply can't get through our meal. What a waste of $70+. This hurt my bank account, especially since we don't have the luxury of dining out at nice places often. read more

Went for the Mother's Day brunch, that was advertised on their own website, only to be told they don't do brunch and have no idea how that full menu ended up on their website. Then after getting the dinner menu we opted for the burger since it's only noon, only to be told "no burgers today". Our water glasses and bread basket were empty more than full. Overall not a great experience. The one bright spot is the cream of mushroom soup.... But won't be going back. read more

Great ambiance. Lovely space. Service is so so at first snd got worse. Food depends on what you get. My trout was cold to the touch when served. It was taken back and after almost 20 minute wait brought it again. It had been microwaved!!! The potato side was stuck to the plate. the trout was tough, the carrots curled they were nuked so much. The venison was good We won't be back read more

Our experience was "alright". Not great, not terrible. The large blue velvet overstuffed chairs are really neat looking but terrible for dining. You need pillows to keep yourself close to the table. Anytime you want to relax you sink back into a deep cushion and are no longer within reach of the table. The staff was kind and attentive but young - our server was only 19 so he couldn't answer questions about the wine and didn't offer to get someone who could. He was helpful but needs to study the menu a bit more as he couldn't answer basic questions about the sides served with the dishes. He definitely has the soft skills down to be a great server but needs some training and guidance on the menu and common questions diners might ask. The food was fine. We asked to split the salad and the kitchen wouldn't so we split it ourselves at the table. This is one of my pet peeves - how hard is it to split a salad in the kitchen? Why do I need to do it myself? The scallops were cooked perfectly but I have no idea what the mystery veggie was alongside the peas and carrots since neither the menu nor my server could tell me. The menu has a lot of interesting entrees and variety at a good prices. read more

My boyfriend and I came here for datenight to experience the magical dining option that recently became available. Overall a really good experience. Only two complaints. My boyfriend was a little disappointed that they had already run out of the creme brule and my mashed potatoes was too much on the salty side. For appetizers we ordered, individually, the escargot and warm goat cheese salad with pumpkin seeds. Both of which were fantastic. His escargot was perfectly cooked, perfectly seasoned where they weren't gummy or too garlicky. My goat cheese salad was fantastic. An interesting combination that worked well. The entrees consisted of blackened grouper and filet mignon. My boyfriend's grouper was again perfectly seasoned, if not having too much sauce. However it was well evened out with his rice pilaf in terms of flavor. My filet mignon was perfectly cooked to my preferred medium rare with a healthy amount of savory peppercorn sauce. My mashed potatoes were flavorful, if not too salty. However, all in all I enjoyed it. For dessert, we both got the mouse which was supposed to be chocolate and raspberry; however my boyfriend's mousse ended up being just chocolate. I ate his as I was a little underwhelmed with the raspberry flavor, but the mousse had a good texture and just the right amount of sweetness. All in all, it was a pleasant and favorable dinner. Im glad we had the opportunity to try it with the magical dining. read more

Loved everything about Chez Vincent. It's located in a pretty stylish corner of Winter Park, nice looking building and pretty interior. I had been craving escargot for AGES and luckily they had it in the Magical Dining menu. The menu gave you a choice between added wine pairing or just the food courses so that was a nice touch. The food was delicious! All of it. The creme brûlée had the perfect hardened caramelized sugar topping. The staff is incredibly nice and attentive. Great restaurant to go to over and over again. One thing tho, I made the reservation online but the restaurant did not have it in their records. It wasn't a problem. I still got a table but maybe that was because I showed them my email confirmation. I highly recommend making a reservation. read more

We have eaten at chez Vincent before. I personally love French cuisine and, hands down, Chez Vincent is the best I've had in the area. During the recent crisis, we saw a news story about small businesses and the fact that Chez Vincent was doing curbside pickup. So my husband and I resolved to have dinner. I emailed the address on their website and received a fast response. We could order lunch or dinner with enough notice. We had pate du jour, venison and filet au poivre. We had lower expectations because it was takeout, but we were pleasantly surprised. We knew the flavors would be there, but the presentation was too! The filet had such a peppery decadent sauce and the venison! I'm not usually a huge fan, but this was fresh and the sauce complemented perfectly. My husband said if I can figure out how the cabbage was cooked he'd eat it more often. This chef is wonderful, please support this gem. Order take out! read more

I came here with one of my school clubs so we had reserved tables and a special menu. The service was very great and the waiters were super nice. The restaurant had a nice ambiance with dimmed lighting and set up tables. I ordered the caesar salad, pork cutlet, and crème brûlée. The caesar salad was okay but I did notice a little browning on the lettuce. The pork came with mashed potatoes and vegetables which were good, however, the pork was semi-raw which is not to my personal preference. It was pink so I did not have too much of it. The crème brûlée was a good size but could have been warmer. Overall it was a nice experience but the food could have been better. read more
