    The soup might as well have been bullion cubes, the tartare was under seasoned, and the frites were cold. the hanger steak and sauce were however good.

    Ambience is the star at Can Can. It’s a little trip to a Parisienne brasserie with a festive atmosphere. Last night’s food, however, could have used improvement: my steak frites was a bit tough and the side of French fries covered more than half the plate. Better to have a small salad of lightly dressed greens and a smaller order of fries making a complete meal of meat, potatoes and salad. Service was good. Nice wines and cocktails. I’ll go back but change my order.

    My wife had the "Duck"; I had the "Boeuf Bourguignon". Both were delicious!! We shared a bottle of wine - very good. The waitress was friendly, helpful and attentive! We had a great evening!

    There fresh breads and croissants are to die for! Service was spot on! I ordered the quiche of the day, which was "Lorraine". It was a large enough portion, that I had breakfast for the next morning as well. I will definitely be returning. 🙂

    This restaurant continues to remain one of my favorites in Richmond. Their staff is always so pleasant and personable. Their food and drinks are always spectacular. I would eat here every week if I could and high recommend it if you are in the area!

    I've enjoyed CanCan for many years. Last night, I met 2 relatives from out of town who wanted "something different." The French vibe, the food, the service were all wonderful, as usual. This is always a treat. Kiera, our server, was great!
