    Well after reading some of the recent reviews I was a little skeptical about our dinner plans. Well it was great. Easy to find, parked right out front. The meal was execptional and the service was top notch. Yes it was the most expensive meal I ever had but the whole experence was worth it. You have to go there knowing the dinner for two will ...

    Beautiful experience, food, service.

    Due to a friends tenacity we finally acquired reservations. Despite what other reviewers have posted, I found the service unpretentious, and very accomodating.

    A server overheard my disappointment over the leatherbound menus, I wanted a copy to take home. She informed me that they have copies in folders ...

    The French Laundry; it is considered perhaps one of the best restaurants in the entire country. The food is renowned across the globe. When I prepared myself for the meal that morning I had extremely high hopes. I was expecting to have the best meal of my life. I was expecting to never want anything less than extraordinary in my life; everything ...

    Let me begin by stating that I have eaten at 5 star restaurants all over the country, and cost is not a consideration. Value and service are.

    This place is a rip off. It is aptly named laundry since you are taken to the cleaners here.
    Our experience began with reservations made 2 months in advance for 8. The afternoon of our reservation I was ...

  • "Wow" from a non-foodie
    By Terra, 12/06/06
    I wouldn't consider myself a "foodie" (chevy's mexican is usually just fine by me!), but couldn't turn down the invitation to check out this joint. It was absolutely outrageous - everything from the lighting and china to the food and service. I went the vegitarian route (yeah, i'm a chicken), and even had the meat-eaters ...

  • The ultimate dining experience
    By Jonathan Dillon, 02/15/06
    Fabulous range of food, each prepared to perfection and presented the same way. We had the nine course chef menu, with and without the "truffle" experience. The truffles are worth trying, even for the entertaining presentation in advance. After the nine courses turned into thirteen we had definitely reached our limit, and I suspect ...

  • A Dining Must
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/13/05
    This place was by far the best dining experience I have ever had. The service was the best. The food was the best. The wine was the best. I would recommend the 9 course chef's tasting menu. Everything is prepared with skill and precision.
