- SScottTampa / Central Florida West •6 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 24, 2024Christmas Eve dinner at La Cuisine has been a tradition with my family since it opened. It is a beautiful way to connect with family over great food. The food is always the start of the show and has remained excellent since the beginning. With fantastic service in a romantic setting, you couldn't ask for anything more perfect for the holiday. Try the Foie gras on Gingerbread! The roast duck is also very delicious, and the tomato risotto is lush and a must-have!More infoLa Cuisine French RestaurantPrice: Expensive• French• Ocala•4.7

Really a terrific meal and for a group this size it could not have been better- multiple servers brought our food to the table so that everyone was served at one time; the staff made wonderful suggestions and knew everything about each dish, as well as being friendly and very welcoming. Everything we had was delicious, and several of our party agreed that the staff were the best they had ever encountered. Great job!!!More infoBraised OnionPrice: Moderate• Comfort Food• Ocala•4.5
