    Our appetizer and dinners were delicious. Frog Legs, Duck Magret and Risotto, and the Mushroom Tajine. Our server was attentive and informative of the menu. We ended with an orange papaya Creme Brulee. That put the icing on the cake. We will be back again.

    Wonderful!! My wife and I were celebrating our 25th Anniversary and we wanted something to match the occasion. La Cuisine was the perfect fit. Atmosphere Ambience Service was spot on. Drinks from the bar terrific! The food starting with the Pear Mascarpone, to the French onion soup / Delicious! Our entrees were cooked to perfection and we can’t wait to come back. Service was impeccable and the live music set the tone for a great evening.

    Friendly and inviting. The duck was tender and cooked perfectly. The beef bourgeois was well seasoned and fell apart. Highly recommended and can't wait for my next visit

    Greeted by friendly staff. Owner takes the time to connect with guests. Service not rushed and efficient. Food was delicious and the souffle totally made my night. I highly recommend this great French restaurant in Ocala.

    The special menu item to celebrate the release of the Beaujolais Nouveau was a wonderful rendition of a classic French dish. The other regular menu items served at our table were also delicious The service was impeccable Miranda Madison's repertoire for the evening was perfect for the occasion - and beautifully sung. Overall a Very Fine outing indeed

    We love La Cuisine! It is a 45 minute drive from our Villages home and it’s a treat to experience a lovely two hour dinner here. Charles was the perfect server…helpful, witty, knowledgeable and of course the food was terrific!
