    Wonderful experience at Brasserie la Banque! My husbands trout was perfect and my steak frites was cooked to perfection. The steak was buttery and tender. It was our anniversary and they gave us champagne and had a lovely happy anniversary sign on the table and a card signed by the staff. The Fleur de Lis and Pineapple Fountain drinks were very good too!

    Great classic French cuisine. Raw bar and caviar service are the highlights. Better for a group of 4+ than couples.

    Chef’s Counter and Restaurant Week was a hit! Always fun to watch the behind the scenes action and get to sample some special goodies! Staff were excellent.

    We were early to our reservation, but were still seated immediately. Lara our server was amazing. Only problem we ran into was food coming out incorrectly but it was swiftly fixed by staff. Food was delicious and for a great price. Will definitely be returning.

    Beautiful quiet spot but we were ther midday, so may be more lively for dinner. We went for a birthday lunch and our server was enthusiastic, thoughtful, and very helpful with menu recommendations. We were too full for dessert, so she packed it for the walk back to our room. She even included an extra so that everyone could share! The restaurant is very cool looking and has a basement bar that was once a “speakeasy”. We will definitely come back again!

    As always, Brasserie La Banque is phenomenal! We were celebrating my husband’s birthday and the team went out of their way to make it a fabulous dining experience. The food was delicious and flavorful; the steak and frites is my go-to and a classic. My husband started with the scallops, which were outstanding and beautifully presented, and then had the mussels which never disappoint. The cocktails were also the perfect way to kick off our dinner, with a French 75 and a Planter’s Punch 👌 if you are looking for an authentic French bistro dinner and wonderful service, I highly recommend Brasserie LaBanque.
