Visited Left Bank for Easter brunch with my husband, and we both loved it. The service was really good. We had reservations and were, I think, the second party there, so no wait time. Our waiter was very attentive and nice, always smiling. The food was so good. I had the croque madame, and my husband had the pork belly Benny. Both satisfying and o so good. Had home fries with it, the right choice. They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Cortado and mimosas, on point as well. The restaurant is charming and full of character. Will definitely be back!

Genuinely mourning the loss of my favorite restaurant. I used to go here every once in a while for special occasions or when family was in town for great French food and the gluten friendly menu (I have celiac).We went back a couple of weeks ago and the whole menu had changed, they were out of boeuf bourguignon, they got rid of my mom’s favorite snapper dish, they only had two dessert options available, and there was nothing marking the gluten free items so I had to have our server review the whole menu with me.I’d honestly love to know what the hell happened. New ownership or management? I won’t be going back any time soon and am really sad about it.(And not to be a French grammar snob but the “duck a la orange” on the menu should be “duck à l’orange” and it wasn’t great)

I have been here many times and never disappointed in food or serviceA gem of a place, outside Paris.
My Left Bank Review-Not a Good Experience—-Very sweet waitress who did not provide us setups and did not know the menu. She did not know the type fish in the Loup de Mer nor that it was a fish dish. Halibut Montecarlo was supposed to come with “Blue Crab meat.” No crab was visible. Crab infusion? The dish was returned to the kitchen who relayed that the crab meat was in the sauce. It simply was not via taste or sight. Dish tasted inconceivably bland. Onion soup was pretty good for, $16. I’ve been in and out of F&B for 50 years. The short of it is- this place does not provide a serious food or service product for the prices they are charging. Bland food. Ill preparedservers and an exaggerated sense of self worth. It’s an overpriced experience I would not like to repeat. We will not return.

Price and food didn’t match at all, service was amateurish and the final result took very long. So much better in St

This French Bistro is absolutely stunning. From the decor to the wait staff, the delicious food and impeccable wine list, all add to an atmosphere that is truly unique. Don't miss this place when visiting St Pete's, Florida! ☕??Parking: The parking was adequate..Wheelchair accessibility: The wait staff opened a wheelchair lift for my brother in law, and once inside the wheelchair was easily accommodated.
Brunch/Lunch is great. The dinner is egotistical. $40 lands you 2 pieces of duck with hard carrots and a near syrup of a pan sauce. I enjoy fine dining but there is a major discrepancy between the offering and the reality of this meal. I will return for brunch or jazz with drinks but the dinner leaves way too much to be desired. Such a great spot but the restaurant needs to revisit its dinner menu and overall intentions.

One of my favorite spots in all of St. Pete. Always a wonderful experience. Luke was my waiter and bartender the last two times I’ve been here and he made my experience here top notch with his expertise of all the drinks and items on the menu. Perfect place to bring a date, as well.

The experience was really great, our server Dallas was very kind and helpful to our very large party on a busy & rainy Saturday morning. However, wasnot blown away by the presentation of the food. Everything was delicious, just not worthy of resort style pricing on menu items.

Over the past 2 years, the food quality has continued to diminish drastically. Staff are nice, and atmosphere is awesome, but, unfortunately, it's best to avoid the food. Had a terrible experience this week. Need a new chef
