I'll start out by saying the service was wonderful. Location of the restaurant is also great. Those that ordered fish at the table enjoyed their dish. However, there were details that were neglected. Someone at my table ordered a medium-well steak but it was overdone. In addition, the table's linen was stained on the side. The silverware smelled slightly eggy and needed to be rewashed. The decor of the restaurant, while giving a cozy feel, is slightly outdated. Overall, the experience was fine, but not up to par with what you'd expect with a bustling RTC restaurant. The restaurant would benefit from a bit of a make-over and some extra attention to detail.

My filet mignon was tough and improperly cooked. Server was just ok. Our first drink was good, but the second seemed watered down. It wasn’t their best showing; maybe an off night. But I don’t think I’ll go again.

Food was fairly decent. The steak tartar along with the baked goat cheese were my favorites of the evening. For dinner, i ordered the 22oz bone in ribeye at medium rare. Though the edges were cooked well, the center was still extremely rare, to the point it was hard to cut. Wife ordered the steak sandwich, and that was exceptional! The desserts were a bit lackluster, has the berry crumble and she had the flourless chocolate. They forgot her berries that come with the dessert, and my dessert came in a small bowl that felt microwaved, as it was much hotter on the outside than the actual dessert inside the bowl. All in all not very impressed, and the appetizers were the best part of the meal. I feel this place is much better for lunch, or a specific craving, and be weary of ordering a specific rarity of steak.

Delicious Caesar salad and onion soup Trout was also nice The Beef Wellington was well overcooked and therefore lacked taste. The fries were greasy. The server tried to wear his mask, but it consistently fell below his nose. Mon Ami Gabi should provide their waitstaff with the appropriate fitted masks and not flimsy ones which do not do the job. We really have liked Mon Ami Gabi in the past but this time was a bit disappointing.

Went for Easter brunch and was pleasantly surprised. The restaurant was full, but the servers stayed on top on things and dishes came out of the kitchen in a reasonable amount of time. This was our first time having brunch at Mon Ami Gabi, and I was surprised at how reasonable the prices were for the brunch items. We'll be back!

A disappointment to be sure. Three out of four brunch dishes were subpar. Eggs Benedict had a generous salmon portion with over poached eggs and barely toasted muffins. The steak sandwich had good crunchy bread and well cooked meat but too little meat and cold fries with the replacement order being only barely warmer than the first. The special Easter plate was light on ham and much too much mashed potatoes. Arugula garnish on the last two plates seemed out of place. French toast was a highlight with nicely textured bread inside and out and a tasty blueberry sauce that made the regular syrup superfluous. The gin-ger mule tasted of gin and little else to me. The bill would have been more reasonable if cut by a third.
