    Our most recent experience at Left Bank was excellent. In a prior review I expressed my concerns with several changes that had been made post-COVID in the menu offerings, in the pricing and even in service that didn't meet the high expectations we'd developed after many visits over the years. I'm pleased to report that our experience last night was wonderful across the board. Menu options (like skirt steak) have returned and are as good as ever. Everything we had was delicious, and the service was great. I want to thank the manager, Juan, and also recognize the staff for taking very good care of us. Those who had been regular customers in years past will notice the improvements. For those who haven't tried Left Bank I give it my unqualified recommendation.
