    We celebrated my husband's 50th birthday/Christmas here. It was a first visit for us all. The food was exemplary, the ambiance was perfect, and the attention to details were superior. We had custom menus with Happy 50th Birthday Todd printed at the top, and dessert came out with Happy Birthday written beautifully in chocolate with a candle. I wish I could remember our server's name, but she was wonderful and patient with our party. My one critique is the garnishes were more for looks than eating, while the meat/main entree was great, but that could just be personal taste. Overall a wonderful experience and my husband had a perfect birthday.

    We celebrate milestones at Lemaire - our anniversary and my wife's birthday. The experience tonight was everything we've come to expect - outstanding from start to finish. From the reservation with Bella to Travis's attention to detail it was a grand experience. Thanks to all of your dedicated staff for all they do!

    Service was great and our food was delicious — we had the crab cake sandwich and omelette — the fries were best ever. The Bloody Mary was so good. The server was fantastic. The hotel was decorated very nicely for Christmas. Great experience !

    Lemaire is located within the Jefferson Hotel which is decorated beautifully this time of year. We both had the salmon which is imported from Scotland. Excellent. Also ordered a side of potatoes with gribiche and cornishons. Very good! The truffle gateau dessert was off the hook good. If you’re in the dining room behind the bar it can be a little loud. This place was packed due to being near Christmas. Absolutely beautiful hotel.

    The food was great, the ambiance was great, but our server Jacqueline was the best part. She’s very personable, gave fantastic suggestions, and made sure we were comfortable and happy throughout our meal. I would go back just to see her again. Great experience.
