The two starters we shared - the ahi tartare and the country pate- were both delicious and generous. We had the roasted rack of lamb (perfectly seasoned and medium rare), the duck a'la'orange (gorgeous) and the shrimp crepes (with a lovely cilantro seasoned filling). We loved everything!
This is a favorite restaurant for us, but rarely do we get there on Sunday...well, if you just have a fresh really worth the calories croissant (like in France) and a latte, you will be very happy. But, you could add on something else, maybe eggs Benedict? Great setting, professional attentive staff, prompt service, and the bill is reasonable! Do you need anything else? Get 2 croissants?
We have been eating at Cafe Des Beaux-Arts for years. It is reliably good for it's food and service, and we especially appreciate that it is quiet and there aren't TV's everywhere you look. The food is typical French fare and is prepared well. We have had breakfast, lunch and dinner there and there are adequate menu choices for almost anyone at any meal. The service is swift and efficient . Our dinner last night was excellent.
