    Excellent as usual. My wife and I have been eating at Chez Francois for 50 years since it was on Conn. Ave in DC and it never disappoints. It is delicious, a bit expensive, but worth every cent.

    5 Stars on everything--food, service, and ambience. I only wish it were a closer drive from my home. I have been going there since they were still in DC, and have absolutely loved it every time.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. We asked David, our waiter, many questions ranging from the history of the restaurant to what is downstairs and he answered all of them very well! We enjoyed the food very much. I am glad it was not too heavy since there were many delicious courses to partake. This was a special dinner to celebrate our anniversary and glad we did it at your restaurant! We will certainly be back in the future and possibly consider your restaurant for my wife's retirement party. The traffic on the beltway was bumper to bumper and got to the restaurant late but the host was gracious and understanding. We appreciated that! This is clearly our favorite restaurant!

    Just a superb experience! Nothing out of place. Everything perfect. Yes, it's a bit pricey but I have paid much more and got less. A truly great restaurant.

    We had a lovely lunch at L’Auberge with excellent service in a charming ambiance with absolutely incredible food! The crépe, halibut and Grand Marnier Soufflé were done to perfection. Bravo to Jacques and his team!

    Great restaurant to celebrate a special occasion . It’s go ambience, great food and attentive service. But all that comes at a higher price than typical restaurants, so be prepared to pay $200 per person.

    We use this restaurant as our go-to choice for big life occasions. Yesterday was for our 50th wedding anniversary. As always, it was a memorable experience. The staff paid great attention to all aspects of our visit, including making sure to accommodate someone in our party with a severe intolerance to gluten. The additional servings that they provide (special soup, palate cleanser between courses, and wonderful chocolate truffles) are a great touch and complement well the delicious foods that we ordered. The menu is extensive and should accommodate all palates. The management gave us a special dessert and some Proseco at the end of the meal. We will continue to return to L'Auberge Chez Francois for special occasions!
