Le Papillon offers a high-end French dining experience with top-tier cuisine, impeccable seasoning, and beautiful ambiance. The restaurant is family-owned and maintains a passion for the art of cuisine and hospitality. Recent reviews highlight the exceptional service, with one reviewer praising Jordan for making them feel at ease and guiding them through every step of the menu, including delicious micro courses like Burgundy snails, artichoke soup, halibut, and duck. The ambiance is described as refined and elegant yet not stuffy, creating a lovely setting for special occasions. The restaurant also excels in catering, with one couple sharing their wedding experience where the staff, including Tamera and owner Mike, provided professional, warm, and organized service. The food during the wedding was praised as outstanding, with dishes like salsify soup with duck pâté, ravioli, duck, and filet mignon receiving high praise. The restaurant is attentive to dietary needs, offering thoughtful substitutions such as gluten-free toasted polenta with mushroom sauce, which was highly appreciated. Guests have also noted the inviting atmosphere and the remarkable quality of the food, making Le Papillon a top choice for romantic evenings, celebrations, and special treats. Many customers look forward to returning, already planning their next visits to enjoy the excellent cuisine and hospitality.
