                                                            Our experience checked all the boxes. Relaxing, modern ambiance, attentive service and delicious food. We enjoyed pasta entrees after a couple of starters. The pistachio encrusted goat cheese and the truffle ravioli were highlights. There was a big menu so we plan to go back to try other dishes.

Got seated right away and the restaurant is very warm and friendly. The service was good, water and bread right away. The food was amazing! Good wine list too. Definitely going back. Already have plans for birthdays.

                                                            We loved our dinner. We were at 6 and chose seating in rear glass enclosed room. It was quieter than main restaurant. All the food was delicious and so were special cocktails. Smoked bourbon was a fun presentation. I loved the Blackberry Mojito. We were a group of 6 seated at rectangle table.

                                                            This is a not French restaurant. It’s has more of an Italian flare. The food was not good. Ordered the Orecchiette - greasy pasta, overcooked bacon. Best part was the French fries…pomme frites. Not even French onion soup! When I asked about the soup of the day I was told French onion soup was “seasonal” around the holidays?! Soup of the day was minestrone. Waitresses were very sweet. Will not be going back. For outstanding French food La Sen Bistro on N Main is the place!

                                                            La Fontaine is superb. Our dinners tonight were exceptional (medjool dates, stuffed with marscapone and wrapped with bacon, pistachio crusted baked coat cheese, caesar salad, duck, orichette pasta, and turkey cordon bleu, followed by a divine chocolate mousse cake). The service is always outstanding. We highly recommend La Fontaine.
