The food and service were outstanding, and the space itself is just gorgeous. Our only problem was that we could barely hear each other across the table, and I was literally hoarse the next morning from shouting to my companions. Boy is that big back room loud.

Chez Fifi did not disappoint! We had an exceptional experience from the French martini to the chocolate mousse, each dish was better than the next. The dining room has a certain je ne sais quoi and made for a lively dinner. The service was great too!

We had a Valentine's dinner at the Bayside White Castle. Very enjoyable, we brought a second couple with us this year-they were very happy with the experience as well-first time there! They had never expected the decorations for the Valentine's event. I've told multiple friends about this particular experience- they all want to go next year!
