This was the first time I had eaten there. The food was delicious. The service was great and the atmosphere is very nice. They had a couple large parties there so it was a little noisy. Definitely would go back again.

Went for lunch on a Saturday with a friend visiting from Arizona. It was a little strange as we were the only ones in the restaurant for the entire lunch service. Other than that, food was very good, service was a bit spotty. The space was well maintained and comfortable.

Our experience checked all the boxes. Relaxing, modern ambiance, attentive service and delicious food. We enjoyed pasta entrees after a couple of starters. The pistachio encrusted goat cheese and the truffle ravioli were highlights. There was a big menu so we plan to go back to try other dishes.

This was our first time trying La Fontaine and it was fantastic. It was Christmas Eve so pretty busy. Got seated right away and the restaurant is very warm and friendly. The service was good, water and bread right away. The food was amazing! Good wine list too. Definitely going back. Already have plans for birthdays.

Warm, welcoming and tasty on a chilly, wet night. He had the branzino and I had the sole. Both were delicious. We are looking forward to returning.

We loved our dinner. We were at 6 and chose seating in rear glass enclosed room. It was quieter than main restaurant. All the food was delicious and so were special cocktails. Smoked bourbon was a fun presentation. I loved the Blackberry Mojito. We were a group of 6 seated at rectangle table.
