   Nice enough place, service was okay. Food was way overpriced. We had the 3 course Valentines dinner and it was definitely not worth the $75 per person price. Took them an hour to give us our main course, Food portions were too small and not cooked properly. Filet mignon was dry and lobster was undercooked. Dessert looked like it was bought from the frozen aisle.

   Despite the courtesy exhibited by the front-of-house staff, they appeared overwhelmed by the sheer number of complaints lodged by other guests, primarily concerning extended wait times for food and beverages, inadequate stocks of silverware and glassware, thus resulting in a notably subpar experience. Furthermore, the food presented failed to meet my expectations and exhibited noticeable inconsistencies with the online menu descriptions.

   I can’t remember ever leaving a one star review on OpenTable. The bar was running way behind the kitchen and other guests were receiving their appetizers before they had drinks. My Smoked Old Fashioned never saw a wisp of smoke. Apps were Ricotta Gnudi and Tuna Tartare, they came out quickly and prepared correctly. Next, the Filet Mignon (ordered chef recommended medium rare) and the Pan Seared Bass, which transformed from Chilean Bass on the online menu. The server assured me that it was Chilean Sea Bass. The filet was cooked past well done, no where near medium rare, and very tough. Looking around, it appeared that other guests who had ordered the filet were suffering the same fate. My entree was not Chilean Sea Bass, but some other overcooked piece of mild, white fish instead. After a whirlwind of apps and entrees, dessert took quite a while. The menu stated the dessert was a flourless chocolate cake dipped in dark chocolate and a cheesecake dipped in white chocolate. We had been watching couples each receiving their own portions of dessert all night. We received one portion to share. We questioned the server who said that it was a mistake and that guests should not have received their own dessert. The menu never mentioned that it was shared dessert. It was obvious the kitchen ran short and lied about it being a shared dessert. We had to wait for them to thaw more desserts from the freezer. They were both rock hard like the premade hockey pucks they resemble.  By now, wheels are falling the wagon. Diners behind us are complaining, the ‘cook’ or whoever he was, (there appeared to be no manager) is out near the restrooms arguing with some other guests. And a server walks out halfway through the night (she knew what was happening and was tired of taking the brunt of it). Hotel Fauchere used to be such a gem, not only in Milford, but all the Poconos. Unfortunately, it has now become a poorly run, over priced, restaurant that would prefer to lie to its guests.

   This was the most recent of many frustrating and disappointing dining experiences at this place. We had to wait for 35 minutes for our drinks. My martini came out with a rancid taste. The diners at the next table who were seated at the same time also waited as long as us, only be to be told the selection of beer they ordered was not available - 35 minutes to ask him to selective another! I ordered the lobster bisque after being assured it would come out hot. I had cold soup at my last visit. Guess what, yes, the soup came out cold. My wife and I both ordered filet mignon cooked MEDIUM. It came out well done. At least it was warm. Throughout the meal we could hear couple around us complaining about the slow service, cold soup, soup served without a spoon. When desert came out, the flourless chocolate cake was so hard we could not cut into it with our forks. Perhaps it was frozen, or maybe stale. We asked for our check and were happy to get out there.

   Bar Louis was exceptional! The ambiance was perfect. Quiet but not dull. It was classic! Food was outstanding and the prices were surprisingly better than anticipated. Can’t wait to go back again!

   So much fun to do! Come hungry. Lots of food. Great for parties and just for a good night. Reasonably priced too.

    We had a lovely dinner at the Hotel Fauchere! The Delmonico room was quiet and cozy, the overall noise was low. Nice setting for an enjoyable evening. Our food arrived and mine was perfect but my husband’s was very tasty but it was barely warm. They forgot the bread and could not provide us with herbal tea. Overall, we would clearly go again as the food was so tasty and the setting perfect. The service just missed the mark a little.
