   We have been coming to the Gazebo for years. It has always been our favorite especially for special occasions. Tonight we brought new friends who have never been. I have to say we were disappointed. Where is the delicious French bread? The vegetable sides have all been changed to basic unimaginative asparagus, carrots and potatoes. I could have made better ones at home. Nothing special. Where have the delicious string beans, beautiful mashed potatoes or scalloped potatoes and carrot soufflés gone? And we weren’t even offered dessert until I hailed down our server. No more chocolate mousse or almond cookie nest with the fruit? No more grand marnier soufflé? I realize there are new owners managing here but please don’t change the menu. It was such a special consistently delicious French restaurant where we could get classic French cuisine.

   The restaurant has a good vibe - nice crowd. Some older, some younger. Caesar salad is decent. Snapper was a little overcooked- last time was perfect. They were out of duck!

   This restaurant is not the same since new ownership. We use to live the gazebo and never left disappointed. Last night that changed. The food was a complete disappointment all around. There were 6 of us and not one of our party enjoyed their meal. To top it off the waiter tried to tell us a over cooked salmon was medium. Won’t be going back any time soon and that makes me sad because we use to really love the restaurant.

    It was so loud my husband and I couldn’t hear each talk. Our server had so many tables that we waited 20 minutes after being seated to give him our drink order. The side dishes that came with the Dover sole were cold and bland. It was not worth the money.

    This was our first time here. The restaurant is elegant and appears to be fine dining. We were seated promptly. We were offered water and drinks right away. This impressed the 4 of us. From that point on we were rushed Our server didn't tell us we had to order souffle ahead of time. Yes we should have thought of that. When it came time for dessert we were told souffle take 20 mins and they were out of them. We were offered other dessert options our reservation was at 7 pm. Start to finish we were done by 8 pm. That is not what one would expect to be elegant fine dining. Very disappointed I'm that aspect. There are hundreds of good restaurant options in Boca. Doubt I will go back to this one.

    Will never patronize this restaurant again. Over 30 years we have spent a few birthdays and anniversaries here. After making a reservation a month ago we were seated in a small side room with a big group there. We declined and waited for another table. The problem is the maitre d’. He nastily told me he did offer me a table. We then we’re stuck In a corner booth with limited access by waiter. We couldn’t get any additional water during whole meal. This maitre d’ stopped at table for 4 right in front of us at least 5/6 times and averted looking at us. He hugged and chatted and answered their requests for more potatoes etc. this is a place only for Regulars. Not people who come once in awhile Food - awful scallop appetizer, dry duck, Ciabatta bread in French restaurant The maitre d even laughed with the chummy table about another party who wouldn’t sit in side room. Obnoxious. Not the place it was 30 years ago.

    Manager did not honor confirmed reservation in advance for quiet table. In fact, put my guests in a very noisy private party room that had 15 people and 5 small children running around with toys. When I approached the Manager to change my table, he looked at me with evil eyes and said to me "What do you want me to do, It's New Years Eve". He tried to sit others in this private room and they would not even sit down when they were seated, Total disrespect to the customer (me) on all levels of Integrity. Furthermore, his attitude was unconscionable. The restaurant will suffer deep client loyalty if this continues.

    Too much butter , even for a French restaurant . Asked for simple fish, sauce on side - fish was soaked in butter and sauce. Asked for lightly dressed salad, it was slathered with dressing . Food is high quality and well seasoned - that much butter and sauce is not needed period, but my requests should have been honored .

    Our first time in many, many years and we were very pleased. The decor is very pleasant and bright. The service and staff is first rate. This is real french service. If t looks like you need something, you are helped, like immediately. So, different than so many other restaurants, especially now as they are still regrouping from COVID. Food quality and preparations were simply perfect. A most enjoyable evening and we will be back!

    Food was not as good as in the past. Side dishes were bland and had little taste. Escargot were too salty. Potatoes and vegetables had no salt, tasted like hospital food. There was not the same attention to detail as in the past. Waiter was fairly indifferent.

    Our favorite restaurant we have been going for well over 26 years, it is a very lovely restaurant if you are looking for a quiet atmosphere but with a delicious array of continental cuisine. From Escargot to Dover Sole to even Crème brûlée. While it is a little more on the pricey side it is such wonderful cuisine that it is well worth the price. We love this restaurant too because it’s great for the occasion when you want to dress up and feel like you just came from a very special occasion, such as promotion dinner, graduation dinner, holiday dinner. Or perhaps just a “I’m in need of a special night out.” What ever you choose it will be memorable on a ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ level. ( I hope you get to experience it, and that it holds a special place in your ❤️ like it has ours.

    Happy to report our return to gazebo after being away for 6 or so months was most successful. Although the ownership has changed the restaurant has not missed a beat and was just as good now as before. We look forward to returning as we do each season.

    The French Gazebo is one of our favorite restaurants in Florida...or anywhere. The Dover Sole is what I usually order. It is the best I have eaten anywhere, Last night I ordered the duck dish. Outstanding. My husband ordered the calves liver. The martinis are exceptional. The service is excellent as is the attention to detail. Truly a 5 star restaurant. PR

    The service was excellent and anything we needed was provided. A bit disappointing that our reservation was at 7:30 PM and by 9 PM the restaurant was shutting down and we felt as we were being rushed out the door. The bill has been placed on my table approximately 20 minutes prior and there was a rush for collection. If they can correct this problem it may boost their business. Not all their clientele needs to be home by 9 PM.
