We ate at Le Cellier on Tuesday August 5th. This was the best meal of the week, and definitely in the top 10 of the meals in my lifetime.
Food - 4 1/2 stars out of 5
Everything we had was amazing. Much better than I was expecting from all the review I had read before the trip. I went in expected a great meal. We started off with the cheese soup. I would have been happy just eating that and the pretzel bread. Yum yum so tasty! Our friend had the mussels and they were great as well.
For dinner we both had the mushroom fillet and swapped out the risotto for the cream cheese mashed potatoes. The entire dish was great, I loved the presentation, the taste. Definitely looking forward to our next trip to have it again.
For dessert, everyone at the table had the maple creme brulee. Wow! First, it is a good serving portion, two people could easily share one. (but probably wouldn't want to, because it tastes so good). My partner asked after dinner, can you make that? I make a great coconut lime creme brulee, so now have to add a maple one to my recipe box.
Service - 4 stars out of 5
Katie was our server and she was great. Very friendly. She kept our glasses filled, etc. Every server we came into contact with was great. We had a few that stopped and talked with us. We were right by one of their stations, so they would talk to us while they were waiting their turn.
Ambiance- 4 stars out of 5
The restaurant was not as dark as I was expecting. I like the feel of the restaurant. The place as busy, but not overly noisy. We were able to have a nice conversation throughout dinner.
Overall, this was the best dining experience we had all week. Everything was great. I can see why so many people recommend Le Cellier. My partner liked it so much, he suggested that we make ADRS for two days on our next trip. One day to have the prime rib, the other for the mushroom fillet.
