Take an imaginary plane in the evening with the culinary experience of our French inspired menu.
Food prepared at Le Baratin is indeed classic with a modern twist. Classic in a sense of ‘old school’: our sauces are all made in-house, with a veal-based stock. These days, that is very rare.
For Brunch, the Croque Monsieur is a must-have. French peasant, or street food, is uniquely reinvented here.

                                          This place should have a michelin star. It really transports you to France. It only needs some french music.

                                          My go-to for reliable and delicious French food. The staff is attentive but doesn’t over do it. The food is so tasty and there’s always the best prix fix.

                                          We went there to celebraste our 5th year anniversary and we had a blast! From great service to amazing food. I’ve been looking forward to go to this place. Our apps were: beet salad which was very very tasty and soup, delicious as well! My main dish was the steak + frites (the steak was melting in the mouth) and my partner had the special of the day which was sirloin + mashed potatoes(he loved it as well). For dessert we shared an apple pudding with caramel sauce, it was very light on sugar - exactly I was looking for. Lastly, We had such a great time, and we appreciate all the reviews we read here before going, they did not disappoint. Merci Le Baratin!

                                          Food was the absolute highlight of the night — everything that arrived on our table came with a beautiful aroma that had us salivating, everything was delicious. My husband who works in the restaurant industry was inspired by the Spinach Potato soup! Highly recommend
