    Judging by the other reviews on this I should have stayed away. But I have always wanted to try Left Bank. I love Paris and once in awhile I like to get a little fix. But service was slow and the food mediocre. We were seated in the bar and did not realize that the bartender would also be our waiter. This explained the slow service. He had a ...

    Food was decent, service was fair, ambiance was good.

    I enjoyed my lamb sirloin, and my wife enjoyed her clams, but the rest of the party didn't enjoy their dishes too much. The tab was a bit pricey for the quality of the dishes.

    Food was mediocre at best. I went for lunch and chose the tomato & basil soup and chicken pot-pie. The tomato soup tasted like they warmed tomato-paste, water and a little salt. The chicken pot-pie was topped with ½ phyllo pastry top. Seasoning I could discern were salt and pepper only. Vegetables were cut too large to eat. Some of the onions ...

    We found out that the restaurant had just reopened. We wanted any white fish, but there were no white fish options on the Saturday night menu, so we had the special prime rib and salmon, respectively. The salmon was almost 3 ounces with a tastey lentil sauce but no starch or vegetables. The prime rib was quite small, and when I requested ...

  • nice place to look at
    By BrennanO, 06/07/07
    the food is only fair, the appetisers being better than the entrees, the tarte lyonaise and the escargot are very good. i have never had a main course there that impressed. the wines by the glass are nice, with a good selection of white bordeauxs.
    service can be painfull, slow and poorly informed about the menu or the wine list, but other times ...

  • Pleasant during summer
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/29/06
    When you can sit outside and enjoy the wonderfully warm summer evenings this is a nice place to go, although sometimes the service leaves something to be desired. We do like stopping in, before or after a film, to have a bit of onion soup and a glass of wine. More upscale than the other restaurants in the area. The interior is nice for dining inside.

  • Perfect Interview Lunch
    By Lisa, 06/20/06
    Took an interview candidate to lunch at Left Bank.

    Loved the atmosphere!! Very very cute!!! Even our serve was cute!

    Nice patio area but we ate inside since it was pretty warm outside.

    Good Calamarie. I'm not an expert at french food so I was a little picky about the menu and went for a chicken sandwich instead. . .yes sort of ...

  • It was one disaster after another....
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/02/06
    Had a reservation and waited 25" to be seated. Hostesses were rude. Ift would have been nice if they had pointed us to the bar since they didn't save a table for us rather than being seated by the door for so long with people coming and gloing. Service poor. Three different waiters and only the last one knew which end was up. Wine ...

  • Avoid this place like the bird flu!
    By MJM, 03/10/06
    My friends joined me here to celebrate my birthday. Usual wait time for a drink was 15 minutes. Usual time to get the waitress's attention 15 minutes. Our food arrived almost an hour late. 6 out of 8 meals were cold, the 7th meal was stake tartar (served cold so that's a plus?). When we sent our meals back they were not prepared all over ...

  • Great Happy Hour!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/04/05
    This is a great place for lunch or dinner, but my favorite time to go is happy hour. Cocktails are incredibly reasonable and the appetizers are amazing. Try one of their margaritas outside on the patio on a nice day...you won't be disappointed!!
