The food and service are consistently excellent. Attentive server came by our table regularly, just the right amount. We went on a Saturday night, and they have a musician to play/sing/ interact with the customers. We thoroughly enjoyed it (as did other diners), and the music just adds to the ambience. As always, our food was delicious and very reasonably priced. We've eaten at Cafe de France since they were in Plano and have followed them to the Dallas location. We'll be back.
