    I first went to L'Auberge Chez Francois 45 years ago for my wedding dinner. It was wonderful then and it is wonderful today. There were 4 of us today and we all selected from the fixed price lunch menu. There are many choices. Everyone liked their appetizers, entrees and deserts. The house salad is the least exciting part of the meal but is perfectly fine. They were having a large party but the service was still smooth and very friendly.

    Love everything about it. We chose fish for main course this time and we’re not disappointed. Expect to pay at least $100 per person for lunch, with drinks.

    We were celebrating Mother's Day early. Everything we ordered was excellent. The staff, especially the waiter was extremely helpful and courteous, checking back with us on a regular basis to see that everything was to our satisfaction. We will definitely go there again.

    We were married at L'Auberge 20-some years ago and often go to celebrate our anniversary. Always first rate, but last night was even better than usual. We've been to many of the region's finer restaurants over the decades and I cannot think of one with a more lovely setting and a luxurious dinning ambience. Its in the country. It's lovely. Tables seem yards apart. You can converse without raising your voice. Service is impeccable. The menu is extensive. The food and wine superb. The only demerit is the seating. They need better chairs. A small point, but important, especially for their older customers. Highly recommended!

    This rare find in restaurants is second to none! Take a walk through the gardens where the chef grows much of the food you'll really enjoy!
