    The lady who greeted us was very warm and welcoming. We had the prime rib eye with Cognac sauce and crème brûlée and iced hibiscus tea in a flask, everything was delicious. After the dinner, the chef came out and greeted us. We had a lovely dinner and will be back.

    Was there for brunch before a show at the Amundsen theater. We had settled on two menu items to order and then our server told us they were both not available. It was one substitute. Quiche Lorraine. It was good but small portion. We ordered as an appetizer, roasted brussels sprouts with balsamic glaze, goat cheese, and dried apricots. This was the star of the meal! our waiter was very attentive and personable.

    We really enjoyed late lunch at Petrossian on Jan 4 for our 44th wedding anniversary. Appreciated the complimentary champagne and non-alcoholic French Bloom. I loved the omelette, he the croque madame. The desserts, chocolate souffle for me and chestnut puree with gold leaf for him, were excellent and beautiful to look at. Service so attentive.

    I recently dined at Mélisse, and it was an incredible experience! The waitresses, Mia and Scarlet, were outstanding—so knowledgeable and attentive. The food was simply fantastic, especially the duck; it was cooked to perfection. I highly recommend Mélisse to anyone looking for a special dining experience! (Much love for the Cesar salad ❤️)
