So, I had pretty high expecations for L’Espalier, and most of them have been met. I ordered the pan seared foie gras, which was absolutely incredible. I think the only other place that made foie at this level was Clio.

I ordered duck for the main course, though it was delicious, I felt that the flavors could be pushed further.

The cheeses were amazing, but since I don’t know much about cheese, I won’t say too much about it.

Desert was a bit too big, and felt it was fairly standard fine-dining desert.. so eh..

Overall, I’ll give it four stars because the service was excellent and the foie was out of this world, everything was delicious, but doesn’t warrant five stars.
