   Despite a reservation confirmation from Open Table the day before, the restaurant never popped-up at the indicated location on the reservation date. Restaurant at the address was completely dark and locked. Before accepting reservations Open Table needs to do more to confirm restaurant actually exists. It was a total failure.

   I had scheduled a reservation and childcare a month in advance. Received confirmation a few days before. Arrived the evening of to find the restaurant closed. Le Clown had stopped serving the week before. It was a huge disappointment as this was something we had been looking forward to and scheduled around.

   We love ordering a bunch of dishes and sharing. This was a perfect example of that! The wine pairing suggestions were a delicious surprise and the staff was attentive and kind. Merci!

   Even the vegetables in the crudité platter were exceptional! Flavors and presentations were delightful and innovative, while remaining true to French inspired traditions. Service was attentive and it was obvious great care was taken in the kitchen. Go here! Enjoy indulgent vegetables, delicious meats, outstanding use of cheeses, and one of a kind desserts.

   The food was disappointing. The foie gras taco was just a mousse, not the same and the taco was tiny, sweet and uninteresting. The beef tare tare was too small and no raw egg or toasted bread that you usually get. The veggie crudite was very average, just some basic grocery store raw veggies and lukewarm cheese sauce, something that I can get from Safeway. The baked chicken was, again, very underwhelming and something you can easily make a home. All this for over $100 plus tip! No thanks.

   I cannot emphasize enough how good the food was. I had the poulet frites. The frites were crispy (perfect) and tasty. Likewise, the chicken was outstanding. The sauce especially was creamy and perfectly went with the chicken. The salad we had beforehand was also exceptional. The service however was exceptionally poor. I waited an over 45 minutes (closer to an hour) for my food to arrive. My wife finished her albacore (also excellent) before I even received mine. Apparently, they served mine to the wrong table, but failed to let me know until I asked when I was paying. The server apologized but also just shrugged it off like I had the problem instead of their exceedingly unprofessional service. If you go expect to get marvelous food, but 5 star poor service. It may not be worth it.

   Service was lacking severely, our drink orders weren't taken for a quite a while, other tables were overheard complaining their meals didn't show up. Very disorganized. Bread for the table arrived after our first course which was not the case for other tables. We didn't even get a knife with the bread and butter. The food was very salty.
