Best French Restaurants in Aloha

The new menu under the new chef was amazing! The smoked scallops were tender and flavorful and made a great accompaniment to the ravioli. The king salmon was cooked perfectly. The presentation of each dish took the experience to the next level. We have enjoyed Tavern on Kruse for many years and it continues to impress us with expertly prepared food focusing on what is local and in season. The small menu allows for flexibility during the changing seasons. The service is exceptional - Emily and Annie are outstanding and always have great suggestions.

We had an exceptional evening at St Jack. While there were a few awkward moments with the staff, the food made up for it. When we first arrived with a reservation, they didn't have a table for 5 ready for us, and tried to put us at a table for 4 with a person on the end. They adjusted after we asked, stating that the tables I asked them to put together were not available when we arrived; however, that was a little like putting it on the diner because they did know we were coming. I had written on the reservation that it was my son's birthday, but they seemed unaware until I mentioned it, and then he got a scoop of ice cream with a candle. We were a late seating at 7:30, but not the only table still seated when we left, and we didn't get any kind of a thank you or goodbye. All minor things, but they do affect the whole experience, especially when you are at a high-end restaurant. But the food, oh the food, was marvelous. We started with lovely oysters that were scrumptuous, went on the bread and butter, light and fluffy with the perfect level of salt. The Gougeres warm from the oven were amazing, as was the chicken liver mousse. I thought the tartar de boeuf was very flavorful, but if you are a traditionalist, as some of my family they didn't love it as much but still liked it very much. My husband had the Sole, and it was an amazing surprise and would be my choice if I ate there again. The moules were lovely, and the curry broth you just want to drink straight from the bowl. The steak frite well well-cooked and fries w/the bernaise sauce were lovely (though a tad bit salty). We indulged in all three of their desserts, and the table was split between the Strawberry Choux and the Meyer Lemon Coeur a la crème as the best. Both were exceptional. All in all, a great Birthday Dinner, and we would definitely recommend St. Jack.

My oldest daughter has celiac disease and Alpenrausch worked with her to provide a delicious, safe evening. She loved the Steelhead, the fondue and the sides that were safely prepared for her. Our server, Craig, took great care of my daughter, and of all of us. My daughter is very excited to have Alpenrausch and the three other Olympia Provision restaurants as safe, wonderful dining options.

Service was great. Wait staff accommodated our request to turn down the volume on the background music.

Food was great and the server was delightful. The parking is scarce and the ambiance inside is a bit worn. I have heard rave reviews about breakfast but not sure it’s a great choice for a dinner meeting depending on your clients.
