    A perfect evening of celebrating many years together. Our waitress was warm and attentive along with the entire team. We weren’t rushed and each dish was delicious and outstanding. Although we have visited numerous times before, this was our first evening dining here. The wagyu beef cheeks appetizer was amazing and perfect on a winter night. The lobster and veal scallopini entrees were equally delicious and well prepared. We finished our meal with the soufflé and it was the only way to end a wonderful meal in a beautiful setting and with the one I love.

    We hadn’t been there in years. My husband courted me there over 40 years ago. We had special celebrations there with loved ones. My daughter and I returned today, and it met all of our expectations. Joyful! Delicious! I promise we won’t have air so long to return! All the staff was gracious, professional and delightful! Thank you

    As always, excellent food and service. The maitre'd easily moved us to another oom when we requested a quieter setting. Our go-to place for special events.

    It's always a pleasure and a special treat to visit L'Auberge Chez Francois whenever we are in the area. Guests are immediately transported to a place of "old world charm" and French classics presented in a beautiful way, an art which is difficult to find these days. You are welcomed like an old friend stopping by for a delicious meal. There are many great choices on the menu. We ordered the Chateaubriand from the prix fixe dinner menu and savored each bite. The service is always friendly and attentive and never overbearing. Excited to hear about a B& B and Spa being built on the property!

    Excellent place to celebrate a special occasion. The food is excellent, ambience is nice and the service is very good. The cost is more on the pricey side, but worth the visit.
