    We enjoyed Sunday Brunch at La Cuisine. It was a delightful experience! The party included myself, my husband and our 2 daughters (8 and 19). We were greeted by a very friendly hostess who showed us to our table. Our waiter Shawn was awesome! He had great recommendations and kept our drinks full. The food was amazing! We started with the escargot and the French bread basket. It was perfect! Then we had a chocolate crepe, the burger, eggs muertte, and an egg Benedict. Everything was fresh, seasoned perfectly and so so delicious. We finished our meal with a crème brûlée. We will definitely return when back in town. Thank you for an amazing meal!

    Very nice restaurant. They had live music near the bar which was loud so we moved tables. Food is great and service was awesome. Wish they’d put flowers or some sort of decor on the tables.

    This is one of our favorite restaurants. The Rack of Lamb is so delicious the way it is seasoned, it’s truly amazing. Also enjoyed the Frog Legs, which is a special treat. Service and ambience is great.

    Definitely the most delicious lamb chops we have ever had. Escargot as well. Our server Ryan was incredibly attentive and described everything to the tee. Desert chocolate mousse was great

    The was over priced and very lack luster. I had escargot that had no flavor, it was edible. the main dish were to salty and lacking flavor, French cuisine is known for being flavorful. The best part of my experience what's the ambience and the creme brulee that was it.
