    The lobster and crab Rillette appetizer is a delicious treat and the NY steak was phenomenal. Seasoned and cooked perfectly for melt in your mouth goodness! Excellent food, service, and cozy atmosphere! Love going to La Bonne!

    Great food and service. The Onion Soup is especially good. Los of flavor without being overly salty.

    This remains my favorite restaurant. The cuisine, especially the duck, is to die for. The waiters are always the best! I highly recommend this restaurant.

    Reservation does require early planning as prime dinner hours are difficult to get. Recommend booking 2weeks in advance but worth while.

    Victor was our server and he was amazing! Everything he recommended was as delicious as promised! We lived in Paris for two years and this meal topped the charts!! Run to try their escargots! We also had their endive salad, pork chop, and the star of the show was Cassolet!!! Sooo good!

    Food & Service was exceptional. The place was quaint but a bit crowded which makes it a little noisy. Parking was easy enough if youre willing to shell out $19.00 for 2 hours. Great experience, would definitely visit again soon.
