I booked a reservation this evening because I never tried a Michelin Star Resturant, and frankly, I never will again. $22 for a single scallop; obnoxious. The risotto that accompanied it was grainy and undercooked. (I detest a restaurant that gives an odd number of any appitizer for an even nu1mber if people....) Could have got a lb of scallops at the fish market for that price. The scallop itself was delicious, however. The Foie gras was probably the best portion and best tasting part of the meal for the price. I was filled and satisfied. The house bread was good, but the butter could have been slightly warmed to allow for easy spreading. I had two orders because, well, you get hungry after sharing a single scallop. The waitress was very nice, helpful, and polite, she's the real deal. Now, we were all excited for the beef tenderloin (which we were told was a 6-7oz Filet Mignon). However, the Filet is a part of the tenderloin, and a tenderloin is not necessarily the Filet (which it wasn't). 4 small strips of choice cut steak (did you think you would get Prime for $56?) had a very flavorless yet tender appeal. After adding a heavy helping of salt to amplify the flavor, my wife asked me, "Do you think they have A1 steak sauce?" The potato coquette that accompanied the steak was good. I liked it, but the wife said hers was undercooked on the inside. The yellowish, greenish paste/sauce that was included on the plate reminded me of black licorice and was very unappealing to us both. The two glasses of Pinot Noir were fabulous! Helped to wash out the taste of the meal. The presentation of the meal was nice.
For almost $250 after tax and tip, however, write this post from McDonald's parking lot as we...
   Read moreCame here for dinner for the 1st time. It was a last minute decision. We had the signature chef's menu 4 course meal. The food was delicious & beautifully presented. But the real highlight was the service! Haven't had service this thoughtful & attentive in a really long time, but our server Antoine delivered! He took time explaining the menu carefully & the dishes as they were served. He was exceptionally courteous & charming & even went out of his way to improvise to accommodate a dietary restriction that caught us off guard. Now THAT is service & I hope his bosses at Le Germain hotels take note! You guys have a star...

Service was fast and the employees are always kind. What ever your questions, they will always have the answers.
I really like the way they present the Ceasars salad and the dressing is well seasoned. Salad was really crunchy and fresh.
I recommend the lobster pennes. It is delicious and I love getting this dish! The sauce is rich but not too rich, just enough!
For desert i got the pavla, which was meringue and whip with strawberries đ Simple, but good and refreshing! ^-^
Overall, this was a...
