The iconic, l’escale restaurant bar, or “port of call” for seasonal Mediterranean cuisine is designed to transport the ambiance of Provence to the Gold Coast of Connecticut. Two-hundred-year-old stone terra cotta tiles from Provence adorn the floors with a wood burning fireplace lending an unmistakable charm and beauty.

Located at Delamar Greenwich Harbor Hotel, the restaurant’s intimate decor, along with its wrought iron tonelle covered waterfront terrace and exquisitely designed menu by award winning Executive Chef Frederic Kieffer will deliver the Côte d’Azur right to your table.

Wonderful Christmas fixed price menu. The service was excellent despite the fact that the restaurant was packed for Christmas. We had scallops, filet, halibut and gnocchi. All of which was prepared perfectly. The deserts were outstanding too.

I have been to L’Escale numerous times over the past few years. Generally it is a very good experience. Unfortunately this time was a miss. Loud and obnoxious revelers near us made the experience less than hoped for. The appetizers were very good, the main courses were disappointing and the dessert was unattractive. So much so we sent it back. Though I will go back again given a long history of enjoying fine meals, this time overall was a miss on a number of fronts. Though it is hard to account for customers who are rude loud and obnoxious, a message to the restaurant manager when in doubt kick them out should be the mantra. You lost a number of Customers that evening.

Has the lunch menu which is great value: mushroom veloute and branzino a la plancha. The dining room was full at lunchtime on a weekday which was surprising. Service was nevethless efficient and dishes were served promptly and cooked to perfection. Never a surprise at L"Escale.
