   Even though it was raining outside. The inside was marvelous. The food was outstanding and service was impeccable.

   First, I’d like to say that we dine at upscale restaurants frequently. Our server, Nate, was pleasant and professional, but he didn’t check back to see how we were enjoying our meals. The Filet Gnocci was excellent and priced appropriately. The Fois Gras was missing something, perhaps more of a sear. It was bland, although the sauce was good. The lamb rack was not as meaty as I’ve had elsewhere, and for less than $60 although the potato and vegetables were very good. The duck confit was terribly small and literally swimming in lentils, quite disappointing! He enjoyed the apple tarte and I found the floating island just ok, especially with the 3 single blueberries. Really, 3??? Lastly we were rather shocked at the dress attire worn by the majority of the guests, even though you state that dress should be business casual. We saw undershirts (not tee shirts), jeans, shorts, plaid flannel shirts and hoodies (the worst in my opinion!). Overall we could have gone anywhere for my birthday and I chose La Provence. I wish I could have a do over! The best part was the landscaping, lighting, including the lamps on the tables, and the excellent wine we brought with us.

   We have been at La Provence many time for dinner and it has always been excellent. Easter was our first brunch there. It exceeded expectations. Everything was perfect.

   We had an 11:30 Rez for Easter Brunch and it was perfect! Appreciated the a la carte format (vs buffet), the menu’s varied selection and that it’s BYOB. Loved the overall atmosphere and the service, especially Delroy, was impeccable! Conversation was easy, not noisy and we were not rushed. We will definitely return!

   Delightful Sunday brunch with a varied menu of delicious entrees. We enjoyed a perfect table for two with friendly, attentive service. Definitely a gem of a spot in Ambler.

   We had a very good meal at the restaurant. However, 2 of us ordered the “special fish”, and the server came back and said it was sold out. This was at 7:00. They ordered the Dover sole, which was delicious but much a more expensive entree. Service was very good and it wasn’t noisy where we were sitting. Will go back in the summer, and sit outside

   Had a wonderful meal this evening. My husband and I both had specials - pork chop and quail - and they were excellent. Baked Alaska to top it off was great. Service, as always, impeccable.

   Our first visit and will not be our last. We are francofiles and visit France frequently. The food here is quite authentic and holds up against the many restaurants we have been to in France. We look forward to returning.

    We shared a cheese board to begin. Beautifully presented and a perfect blend of cheese, bread, almonds, and fruit. The corvina fish was cooked perfectly and served in a delicious cream sauce with sweet corn, unexpected combination, but so flavorful. There were crab pieces dotted in there. They were fine,but the dish didn't need it.
