Our server Karen was kind and attentive with our large party. The sampler appetizer was splendid. Clams Casino was cooked perfectly, the oysters Rockefeller were delicious, I loved my mushroom 10 out of 10 appetizer. I got the beef Wellington as my entrée without the pate. It's rare to find a restaurant that can offer beef Wellington let alone one that cooked it to absolute perfection. I prefer mine rare plus and the chef nailed it. They do family style sides for a vegetables which was nice. My fiancé got the rack of lamb and they weren't joking. It's a whole rack, he said the flavor was spot on. This is the hidden gem that everyone needs to know about, highly recommend for any date night or if you're just wanting really good quality food.

The prime rib was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The beef Wellington was one of the best Beef Wellington I have ever ate. It was cooked to a perfect medium rare. The pastry and pate surrounding it was also cooked to perfection . The red potatoes cooked in chicken broth were also very good. Never had potatoes prepared that way so it was great trying something new. The frog legs were also cooked great very tender and moist. The breading was light and crisp but could have used some salt. If you want a really nice evening, at a fancy but not too expensive restaurant , this is the place for you. It is very quiet restaurant, great for a romantic meal or taking your parents out to eat. They are also don't seem to be as busy or booked as other restaurants in the area , so it may also be a great last minute decision for a nice night out. Another big plus is that the prices for full bottles is very reasonable!

Lovely high ceilings and beautiful tables :) We got dozens of oysters each that comes with hot sauce and mignonette and lemon. And also these cute tiny hot sauce bottles (which they gave extra after seeing us go bonkers about them). I got a Negroni that had citrus flavors and was delicious. There was also wings and beer for happy hour. I had to get the mussels and fries cos I was slightly buzzed. Very balanced broth that came with the mussels and a generous position of a grilled sourdough (?) everything tasted very fresh The wings could be a lot hotter but very crispy outside and super juicy inside - comes with generous portions of carrots and celery Overall, highly recommend this place!!

Consider Chanterelle for any special occasion!! Went here tonight for our anniversary and the…read moreservice was next level! I had noted it was our anniversary on the reservation but I feel like restaurants seldom take notice. Not only did many of the staff wish us a happy anniversary, our dessert was inscribed and champagne was received. The server, Max, was meticulous with detail and made sure our dining experience was top notch. We started with wine by the glass then switched to a half bottle of wine, which was perfect for dinner. For an entree, I got the Cornish game hen supreme, which I will be thinking about for a long time. It was well seasoned and the mix of accoutrements made the dish. I wish I got more of the butternut squash/carrot purée!! This will definitely not be our last time at Chanterelle!

We dined at Chantetelle last night, which is part of the Bouchard Inn where we are staying for the…read moreweek. This restaurant is romantic and quiet with French music setting the mood. We enjoyed a 2021 Domaine Drouhin Pinot Noir with our dinner. My husband and I shared two appetizers, the beef tartare and the lobster raviolo. Outstanding! The beef tartare was so fresh and flavorful. Unfortunately, there were only two pieces for $19. The lobster raviolo was filled with mascarpone and lobster topped with trout row. Decadent. One ravioli priced at $21. I had the Dover soul with almond sauce ($64) and hubby had the roasted duck ($34) for entrees. Both perfect in every way. One minor suggestion is that the Dover didn't need the frisée. It just got in the way. Our friends who recommended Chanterelle suggested that we order the Grand Marnier soufflé when we ordered our dinner because we shouldn't miss out on this dessert and it takes some time to bake the soufflé. Oh my goodness...I have never tasted something so divine, creamy and luscious. Silk on my tongue. The service from Nick and the young lady assisting was spot on. It is an expensive restaurant but I think worth the $$$$ Just be aware of the cost so you're not surprised. I've dined at Alinea in Chicago which is a 3 Michelin star restaurant ranked 9th on the World's 50 Best Restaurants list, and Chanterelle might be my 2nd most favorite restaurant after Alinea. Fine dining at its best!

The gnocchi had the perfect texture and all of the vegetables were so refreshing and well-cooked. My fiancee had the lamb chops and it's the best ones he's had. Perfectly cooked, rich sauce, and creamy mashed potatoes.

Each course was immaculately prepared and presented. And the Chef told a bit about each dish's ingredients and prep. Most ingredients were local, minor amount from New England. We received a copy of the menu on the way out (attached). Favorites were the caviar, diver scallops, and sea bass. There were only 2 quibbles - although most plates were smallish by course 7 or so - one was stuffed. The dessert was (too) huge. Strangely, two of us did not embrace the wagyu... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Reservations a must; dressy casual although some gents had on sport coats and ties. No need to valet - plenty of parking 100' from the front door. Note that this is a pricey night out (just north of 4 digits). In addition to the meal, taxes, and gratuity you prepay, there will likely be cocktails and pairings (pairings are not included).

Service was attentive, the restaurant is super spacious, and the food was delicious. We started with a couple cocktails which were decent but I would suggest a bottle of wine instead to better suit their menu. The Crispy Calamari was so satisfying. It was crispy, not chewy at all, and the peppers and lemon added a bright zestiness to each bite. The Lobster Bisque was also the best I've ever had. It was soothing, buttery, and loaded with lobster! Since we were sharing, they pre-split the portion for us which was a thoughtful touch. We got the Bone In Delmonica 18oz which comes with one accompanying sauce. We got the truffle butter and I wish they'd give at least 2 because the horseradish crema and chimichurri also caught my eye. The steak was cooked to a perfect medium. It was charred on the outside, juicy on the inside, and went well with the sides. Speaking of sides, the Truffle Mac & Cheese is a huge portion for ~$16! Not to mention, it's so creamy, cheesy, and earthy from the truffle. I loved it! The 22B Mashed Potatoes were delicately smooth and paired well with the steak. We ended with the Old Fashioned Carrot Cake which was moist, had good texture, and a delicious cream cheese frosting. I appreciate the fact that it was complimentary; getting a free birthday dessert has become a lost art but not at 22 Bowen's! Highly recommend making a reservation for a special occasion or just a memorable dinner!
