    Thanksgiving prix fixe menu… not good. Not good quality. Looked and tasted commercially mass produced. Service was atrocious, very amateurish.

    Left Bank at Larkspur is always favorable experience! The service is good and the food is even better.! We appreciate the continuity and attention to detail that comes from the kitchen makes our meals memorable every time. Kevin, the manager, is always so warm and welcoming; it just feels like family whenever we visit our favorite restaurant.

    Cold night out under the awning was made enjoyable with blankets and heater. Service was friendly, accurate and the right pace. Happy hour wine was a good value. Cassoulet, green salad, and butternut squash soup were generous and delicious. Looking forward to the reheating cassoulet lefties for dinns tonight. Also enjoyed the apple galette and warm olives. The flavors are reliably delish at Left Bank. The meat and beans were cooked to flavorful tenderness, the beans were neither dry nor soupy. The house rose paired very well with the cassoulet. The house red was an acceptable pairing but the second glass of house red tasted very different from the Happy Hour wine and had some off flavors. We'd been craving cassoulet and we weren't disappointed. Been eating at Left Bank since they opened. Thanks for another delicious and pleasant meal.

    Unfortunately we weren’t all that happy with the food. Salad was a strange random disjointed medley with little flavor. Can’t go wrong with onion soup but it was a bit salty. His was a pork chop that was over cooked. All in all- the service was great and I love coming there. Just didn’t quite meet expectations.
