Total experience keeps getting better. There were 5 off menu specials the night we dined; we couldn't resist and ordered 4 of them - superb additions. Service was excellent as usual, tables have white table cloths and are comfortably spaced. A frequent go-to restaurant for me despite the 15 mile drive. An extra plus compared to downtown and OTR is free parking.

It was my husbands birthday - we had the escargots to get started which were delicious, then the lobster salad and foie gras specials outstanding and last the seared duck breast which was good. We sat in the patio, it was perfect weather and beautiful view of the river and sunset.

We arrived on time for our reservation and asked the hostess for an outside table of which there are about a dozen, and only three of which were in use. She replied she didn't think she had any availability outside because others had come earlier and requested them. My wife questioned this since when we made our reservation no seating preference was offered. (We had dined here several times before.) The hostess finally acquiesced and seated us at a table outside. Our waitress was very pleasant and knowledgeable. However, the soup that was served us belonged to another table as was our entrees! In this day of COVID-19 we wondered who had breathed on our food the same as we had for somebody else's. The food was good and we had a nice time enjoying the fantastic weather. We left after 90 minutes and far less than half of the tables had been used.

Maitre’d: very warm and pleasant Bread and butter: terrific Onion soup: watery and bland Crab cakes: dry Glass of wine: short-pour, maybe 3- 4 Oz. Pot au creme: milk chocolate instead of dark chocolate as it used to be. Disappointed. Frites: large portion but some under-cooked Cod sandwich: fairly good. Server: professional but rushed us. Ambiance: beautiful Probably won’t come back.

Live in Florida 7 months out of year. Haven’t been to restaurant for a few years. Was. Looking forward to a bison burger so I was disappointed when all the burgers and sauces and cheeses were off the menu, except for regular hamburger. Also was disappointed with vichyssoise. Too many other things in it.

We had good service even though they were short staffed. We went on a nice night because we wanted to sit on the patio but they said it was closed. Later they seated outside so we were confused. The red lobster salad was primo, foie gras not so great flavor and texture wise, the pairings were bland and soggy. Wedge with fried green tomatoes excellent. The fish on risotto delicious. We got a slightly bad bottle of wine that the waiter tried and said was supposed to taste that way. I don’t think so. Overall a fairly good experience.

Very good food, above comfort level w/o becoming "precious", at reasonable prices. While the menu has a French flair to it, there is something for everyone cuisine wise I think. I really nice mix of starters and main dishes and side dishes. Table settings are white tablecloth with team work service one has come to expect in a JR restaurant over the years. Highly recommended.

We're regulars, and are never disappointed with the quality of the French cuisine, drinks, and the service. We miss Table, but love Le Bar A Boeuf and French Crust (they complement each other well). We enjoyed the special Filet Mignon with the mitake mushrooms and potatoes, plus sauce made this perfectly executed steak extraordinary; and the chicken with asparagus and morel cream sauce was as well.
