According to the hostess, there are only 2 tables for parties of five. They happen to be next to each other. We were seated at one of these tables and 5 partying young women were seated next to us. 12+ alcoholic beverage glasses on the table gives a hint of the level of the cacophony.

Wife’s burger was basically a hockey puck. She ate the equivalent of three bites. Onion soup and pear salad were great. Wife enjoyed her drink and desert. Waitress was great but never picked up on the fact that my wife barely touched her burger. Wife chose not to bring it to the waitress’s attention because it was already 9pm and we were tired.

This was our second time dining at Can Can and it definitely did not disappoint. The food and wine selections were excellent. Charlotte was our server, polite, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. Be sure to save room for dessert!

The food was delicious, it just took a long time to come out. We ordered (not complimentary) bread and while the bread was delicious it didn’t come out until our food did (it was supposed to be an appetizer) and it was cold. It felt like it had been frozen and then thawed. It was still very tasty just a bit disappointing to wait so long for cold bread.

First time visiting since the new ownership team came in. Menu has been downsized. No cocktail or beer menu provided. Service was slow despite large number of staff and less than full dining room. My salmon was raw inside, but server never came to check upon food delivery. When plates were cleared, never even inquired about a box or why I didn’t eat my entree when my friend had cleaned their plate. Venue is still nice inside.

Love the restaurant but the food has become more marginal. Menu descriptions are exceptional but the flavor doesn’t stand up to the description. This visit we had a chicken soirée sandwich that tasted somewhat fishy. It could have been the marinade but it didn’t seem like it would be. The fruit spread could not be tasted and was not even visible on the sandwich but it was much needed. The fries were a little cold. The best part of the meal was the bread service. Absolutely delicious. Our server, Cecelia, was exceptional and made the meal and experience good for us.
