   I took my girlfriend here for Valentine’s Day. The food was okay, nothing very exciting. The reason for the lower review was the ambiance. We had a reservation and we were placed at a tiny table right between two other tiny tables with couples also on a date. The table cloth on our table and our neighbors had a few stains. It felt like they were a part of our table they were so close. It took a really long time before we were served or offered water. I was provided the in correct meal. I ordered a steak frites and was served a filet mignon. I mentioned the mistake which the restaurant was quick to fix but I feel like at a nicer establishment like this, at least the manager should have stopped by and said something. The restaurant seemed understaffed since our server was running around like crazy. I feel like the price was not worth the value, and the close tables with dirty table clothes ruined the ambiance.

   door kept slamming next to me for their waitstaff to go in and out and the wall vibrated, hurt my head really bad once when i was leaning on it, and we had to keep flagging people for water refills.

   Took my wife for Valentines Day. They had a special, prix-fixe menu, and a small regular menu - but the prix-fixe items were also available a-la-carte - worked great for us to mix-and-match. Left Bank is back! A few years ago quality suffered for a while, but now it's back to top notch! Oysters were excellent, the French onion soup delicious, and I could have cut my tenderloin with a butter knife. Service was impeccable.

   Wild mushroom ravioli and escargot pleasantly presented. Nice choice of nonalcoholic beverages. Need a side order of bread with the escargot. Dessert of chocolate cake with fruit filling and dab of blueberry pudding is fine. Seating by the grill is noisy but okay. Bordeaux was a little flat, like it had been opened 2 or 3 days ago. Wines listed by varietal but not including vintner. Otherwise a pleasant experience. We come back on special occasions.

   Always one of my favorite places to enjoy a great lunch or dinner. Had the Steak Frittes and it was just what I was hoping for. Beautifully cooked steak with a nice herb butter that came out nice and hot and those gorgeous fries were like a delicacy! Glad we chose the night before Valentine's Day...reasonably quiet. My French 75's never dissapoint.

   The menu had a variety of choices at reasonable prices. We ordered the calamari, ahi tuna, french onion soup, and chocolate cake for dessert. Everything we ordered was well made and delicious. I ordered a Margarita and it was mixed just right, not too strong and not too much. We had great service and I was surprised how quickly we got our food. The ambiance was really nice. The inside of the restaurant has so may interesting design features to look at. We will definitely eat there again. I highly recommend this restaurant.
