                  Loved our lunch on the terrace. Thanks to the entire team from valet to arrivals to the table to the kitchen. And everyone behind-the-scenes. L’Escale is Greenwich perfection.

                  Great service from the team, the chicken paillard was not that great. The omelet was good. the ambience very nice. We would go back. Maybe a bit more creative for the brunch menu.

                  The restaurant was not crowded, very disappointed with the service and quality of food. They did not approach of us for at least 25 min, then waited another 15-20 minutes for a coffee. Also waited excessively long time for oatmeal and yogurt dish. They never came back to refill beverages. After an hour and 20 minutes we asked for check and left. Will not be returning.

                  Great waterside fine dining experience. Portions are more aligned with a tasting menu experience but appreciate the attention to detail and high quality of the food. 10 out of 10!
