French 250

Twice in the last three times I’ve been to this restaurant, I’ve had a problem with the check. Of the three Meritage wine choices a few months ago, I was billed for the most expensive (a whopping $17 a glass) instead of the more conservatively-priced option that I chose (approximately $9). The other occasion involved a mistake of an additional $12 in the restaurant’s favor for the a la carte steak entree that I ordered. By the time the error is discovered, the bill has been presented and it becomes a matter of “they said, I said.” In fairness, I have to say that, when I made a fuss about the wine mistake, it was corrected but I didn’t have the strength to pursue the steak issue, instead opting to never go there again. Because aside from the billing errors, the food isn’t worth a return visit and the wine menu has taken the unpleasant turn of the choice between whole and half glasses, presumably because the half-glass option is an attempt to recapture the sales lost to the excessive prices of the whole glasses.

So save your money, both in terms of quality and potential billing issues, and go elsewhere. Anywhere else.

Expected sophistication did not match up with expected bill. With prices at $200+ for 2 people, I’d expect much more, especially with a completely empty restaurant. Food was OK, service was slow and prices were Way over the top for what you got. The only redemption was the Foie gras and the vast selection of cheeses. One of the ratings below says that they’d rate this place up there with the likes of Frasca, but I care to disagree. At Frasca the waiters know the menu, the chefs cook quickly and the atmosphere is lively. This place is like a poorly made Frasca knock-off.
Will try one more time before completely disregarding… I might have just dined there on an off night
