Description:

BACK BAY. This elegant French-inflected restaurant promises ambience as classy as the food. That's saying a lot, considering that the menu offers poached dayboat halibut, sautéed medallions of organic Vermont veal, and grilled partridge. The dessert menu is full of sweet delicacies, including chocolate soufflé and toasted almond crème brûlée. A great choice for special occasions. They're also open for afternoon tea on weekends. |

| | My husband and I recently dined at L'Espalier, and had one of the best experiences of our lives! From the moment we walked through the front door we were greeted as if we were old friends. We were seated in the front dining room, which is appointed beautifully. Candles were glowing in the fireplace, soft lighting lit the room, and well-dressed guests filled the dining room. Chef Frank McClelland is a world-class chef. The foie gras and pheasant pate was the best I've tasted. The roast loin of lamb, which apparently he has flown in, was tender and delicious. Chef McClelland walked through the dining room, and stopped at our table to say hello to be sure that we were enjoying our evening. What a nice touch to an already impeccable evening. We will be sure to visit L'Espalier again soon. I wholeheartedly give it a ten out of ten best!! |
