   I’ve been here a couple times and have always enjoyed my experience. The food, service, and atmosphere are all excellent! There’s a reason this restaurant has been in business as long as it has, and why it managed to escape the severest effects of the pandemic. I brought my parents for a birthday celebration and they loved it too, so we’ll definitely be back for the next birthday!

   We had a wonderful dinner at L’Auberge Chez Francois. The dinner was excellent, particularly duck breast salad. We enjoyed our Chateaubriand and Soufflé with Grand Marnier also. Finally, we received an outstanding service. Overall, it was a great dining out experience. Thank you. We will definitely go back again.

   Old world charm, exceptional French cuisine, and a staff which really wants to make sure you enjoy yourself. This is not "pop in for lunch between appointments" -- plan on a leisurely meal in warm surroundings. Fireplaces, white tablecloths, excellent custom cocktails and servers that don't rush you. Here no one rolls up your fork and knife in a paper napkin. This is not cheap but class never is. If you enjoy tasteful, elegant surroundings and fine food, L'Auberge is your only choice.

   L’Auberge is always a sophisticated, charming dining experience and never disappoints for quality of service, food quality and atmosphere. Attention to detail is never lacking regardless of who is serving the table. Chez Francois is routinely a dining experience and not simply going out to dinner.

   As usual a delightful meal in a prefect setting. All staff are friendly and welcoming explaining everything and attentive to our desires and needs. A great value for an upscale meal in the DC area.

   Everything was amazing as usual, and moreover, even more special to celebrate my mother’s birthday. Samy, our waiter and a true favorite, was wonderful and brilliant. Seeing and chatting with Chef was a treat too. Thank you again for a great evening and dinner celebration.

    L'Auberge Chez Francois is a priceless institution. They are virtually unmatched in Fairfax and nearby Loudoun. Before we were married I bought my wife here in the late 70's. And we have returned often. We recently celebrated our 44th at this wonderful establishment. It offers the same timeless elegance and superb traditional Alsace and French dishes today as it always has. Everything about L'Auberge is superb. We consider that it offers both the best fine dinning experience as well as value in the area.
