Wow. We had an exceptional dinner here recently. One of the best meals I've ever had. Cauiflower Bisque, Halibut, Sorbet, wine... Wow. Enjoyed. Every. Single. Bite. Wish I took more pics but I was too busy enjoying my food.

First visit, left waiting in the doorway as others came I and got seated. I had reservations, so I brought it up to the Mgr..
Firstshe said they have reservations, I said so do I.
There were open empty tables, so I ask if I could sit at one and get a glass of wind while I wait. Suddenly a table became available. And it was a nice one.
Bad news is I ordered rack of lamb, it was the worse ever. I o only ask for a Togo container so I good give it to my dog.
It was not a rack to begin with. The 4 pieces (served separated, not a rack) were different sizes, obviously not a rack cooked together and as one at all.
My final opinion is, very nice layout inside and out. But too many tables close together on the patio, feels crowded. And although "Bar" is in the name, the bar (small) has about 4-5 seats.
Point is, as nice as the location is, the experience and food was not anywhere near a 4-5 star experience.

We dined here last night for our anniversary not expecting much as we were just in Paris last month (Also location is on a strip mall). Needless to say we were pleasantly surprised of the food and service. Hubby had the escargot and I had the octopus for starters. He had the veal cordon bleu and I had the halibut for entree. Kudos to Chef Emmanuel for a very tasty French food and special shoutout to our server Gina. She is exceptional, seasoned and we can tell she loves her job. We will definitely be back if we’re in the area and recommend to friends and family. Thank you for a wonderful dinner.

This place has the best duck I have ever had. Steak was cooked to perfection. Potatoes were soft and crunchy at the same time. Atmosphere was cozy and not too loud. Service could have been a little bit faster but the waiter was really kind.

Initially planned to go to Okura across the street but it was way too noisy so thankfully we were accommodated at La Brasserie and we had a fabulous meal where we could hear each other! The service was top notch and even though we were on the later side they did not make us feel rushed. One of us had the chicken with butternut squash ravioli and the other the pork chop, both were so delicious! Also loved the bread service with a variety of breads and the French onion soup! The menu has a lot of options and we had no idea Sunday was 1/2 price on a lot of wine bottles which was a nice surprise! We will definitely come back here again soon!

I forgot to take pics of the butter lettuce salad and the French onion soup, but both were AMAZING. The ambience was great. Wine was awesome and we lucked out with a Sunday deal of half price a bottle. Go there!

Probably one of the best restaurants of the desert. Consistent, deliciously, classic inspired French cuisine. The menu doesn’t change much but they have everything you will want.

Some of the pics are from their Christmas Eve menu so it isn’t always available but it shows how well Chef does. Highly recommend for anything from a celebration to just a causal weeknight. And for a secret plug, Sunday’s has a happy hour priced menu offered all night.
