    Seared tuna salad and short rib burger + fries
    Jill B.

    Cozy French bistro in Ambler. Friendly service and tasty French cuisine. We were expecting pomme frites but got French fries instead (thicker and not salty), but our main courses were delicious. We were served an incorrect dessert but it was still yummy. Pricey but delicious.

    Salmon crepe

    We met our parents at this spot in Ambler on a Saturday night. We were quite surprised that we couldn't get a 5:30 reservation the day of so we settled for 5pm. Planchette is BYOB and seems to specialize in crepes. We started off with some wonderful grilled octopus and grilled calamari. This is not your usual fried calamari (much much better). For my main course I had a mushroom and duck crepe and my spouse enjoyed the smoked salmon crepe. Both were a bit heavy on the sauce and not the largest portion for a $20+ meal but were very tasty and left room for dessert. For dessert, they come around with the dessert platter so you can't resist! I had a delicious carrot cake slice while my spouse had the banana Nutella crepe. Both were highlights of the evening. The staff was friendly and had great recommendations. They did usher us out around 6:30 for the next reservation, but that's understandable.

    La Viande

    Had: Escargots de Bourbogne Delectable. La Mer A good variety of seafood. Mornay sauce was yummy. La Viande Not gamey. Very delicate. Both crepes, I was quite surprised that they were both crisp. Texture wise. Give them an A+

    The special for the night:  filet mignon.

    This was by far the best piece of meat that I have ever ate. It was cooked perfectly and melted in my mouth. Came here in first Friday in Ambler and it was amazing. I'm would recommend this place to other people.

    Crème brûlée

    What an absolute gem Planchette is in Ambler - cute, charming inside or out. I ate outside on a bright sunny day. Service was prompt friendly and the courses were timed perfectly and my goodness the escargots were tremendous - plump and juicy perfectly prepared and delicious. The smoked trout is the best crepe I have ever eaten. A generous filet paired with delicately sliced asparagus, capers and an exceptional sauce. Finished with a crème brûlée. A taste of Paris in the town of Ambler - who would've known? Now I do and so do you.

    See all

    Loud, crowded, overpriced, service was mediocre. Crepe was not good, very dry. My friend liked her fish.

    It's a very nice place to have a good meal with your loved ones. It's worth having patience due to how busy they get.
