   Enoyable meal overall. The service was excellent in general, but for a peculiar qurik -- it is all Pris Fixe, and there is a supplement for the dessert souffle of $12.95 above the already expensive total. You are asked to order it right away and not informed of any other dessert options. so you proceed to order it. Then, after finishing the meal, you are given a separate dessert menu. Had that been provided earlier, one might not select the souffle at all. The food was good but not great, at least not at the price point charged. The sommelier and attention was excellent.

   Overall our dinner was excellent. However, at the end, while we were waiting for our check, our waiter engaged in an extended conversation with the folks at the table next to us, delaying the preparation of our check.

    Our bar was perhaps set too high after having been in France and Spain less than three months ago. The quality of ingredients ranged from average to fairly good. The execution/result also ranged from average to fairly good, depending on the dish - house salad 12/20, beef cheeks 14/20, sea bass 15/20, vegetable plate 11-12/20, bread 11-12/20, desserts 14/20. Considering the low standards in the US, it was a reasonably decent experience, over all 12/20. We would not have been pleased in Europe, Japan, New York or San Francisco. The use of better quality ingredients, if nothing else were changed, would improve the gustatory experience. The staff was attentive and kind.

    I’m always amazed at how consistently wonderful the dining experience is here. From the warm, welcoming staff and ambience, to a server who was personable, knowledgeable (great wine recommendation) and attentive, to the fabulous food (escargot, blue cheese salad, veal scallopini, and of course chocolate soufflé), this is one of my absolute favorite all time restaurants.

    Candidly, the restaurant is just overpriced. At our table of four, two entrees were very good-the lobster and the steak-and two were fair-the scallops and the trout. The house salads were terrible. I don't know how you can charge over 100 dollars for fix price dinner and serve a salad that could come out of a bag and be overdressed and soggy. The service was attentive, although a little confused-they tried to serve us some food that was not ours, but that was not a big deal. Bottom line, if I am going to pay over $800 for dinner for four, with one bottle of wine and one cocktail a piece, I want to go home thinking I have just had the best meal of my life. I did not.

    We had a fantastic family dinner at L'Auberge Chez Francois. The food was impeccable and the service and ambiance was outstanding. We all had tenderloin prepared differently and each was perfection. The appetizers were plentiful and delicious and the dessert was yummy. We will be back soon.
