“From the moment we walked through the door, we were warmly greeted by the host and promptly seated. Our server, Hannah, struck the perfect balance between being warm and personable while remaining polished and professional. She had an impressive knowledge of the menu and provided the kind of service we should all be so lucky to experience. During our meal she mentioned what a wonderful team they have and how much she enjoys working there—and honestly, it showed. Everyone we encountered seemed genuinely happy to be there, and it created such a welcoming atmosphere.

We enjoyed both a cocktail and a mocktail, each beautifully crafted and presented. From the appetizers to dessert, every dish was thoughtfully composed. The combination of flavors, textures, and temperatures made each course feel intentional and beautifully executed.

After ordering dessert, I stepped outside for a cigarette. One of the staff members came out to let us know that our ice cream had just been scooped and our desserts were being plated so we could return before it melted. It was such a small gesture, but one that perfectly reflected the level of hospitality we experienced throughout the evening.

Every aspect of our visit left us wanting to tell our friends that Eliza is the new spot. Thank you to Hannah and the entire team for such a memorable evening—we can’t wait to come back.“

“Le Canard Enchaîné** is one of our absolute favorite restaurants. It's our go-to place for anniversaries, birthdays, and sometimes just because we feel like treating ourselves. Every visit has been consistently outstanding.

The food is simply exceptional. We've tried many dishes over the years, and honestly, everything on the menu has been delicious. You can truly appreciate the quality of the ingredients and the attention to detail in every plate. The service is equally impressive—friendly, professional, and always attentive, making every meal feel special.

They don't offer a kids' menu, but that has never been an issue for us because our daughter has a very French palate 😂 and happily enjoys the regular menu.

If you're planning to visit, I highly recommend making a reservation for the weekend, as it tends to fill up quickly. Also, keep in mind that they're closed on **Wednesdays and Sundays**.

Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for an unforgettable French dining experience, Le Canard Enchaîné never disappoints. We always leave looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“
