" Batifol is a hidden gem in Kendall Square! I went there for brunch with friends and absolutely enjoyed everything we had. The French onion soup was a highlight, bursting with flavor. My only complaint is that the croissants were a bit stale; they could have been fresher. The servers were attentive without being intrusive, which was appreciated. I will be back for more! Highly recommend the pastries if you get a chance. " (*Curated Review*)

" Simply put, Batifol is a must-visit for Francophiles! The decor really sets the mood, and the food is a celebration of classic French dishes. I thoroughly enjoyed the duck confit and the crème brûlée; both were absolutely delicious. The only drawback was the waitstaff could improve their attentiveness. Overall, I highly recommend it for anyone who appreciates French cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was thrilled to find an authentic French restaurant in the area, and Batifol did not disappoint! The wine selection was excellent, providing fantastic pairings for our meals. We ordered a variety of dishes, and all were beautifully cooked. The ambiance felt right out of Paris, making it a perfect date night spot. I plan to return to explore their brunch menu soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Batifol for a business dinner, and I must say the ambiance impressed me right from the start. However, the meal was a bit hit or miss. The appetizers were spot on - especially the charcuterie board - but the main courses lacked flavor. My co-worker had the coq au vin, which was more like chicken in gravy than what we would expect from traditional French cuisine. Service was not great either; our orders were mixed up more than once. I think I'll give it another shot but with lower expectations next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" A perfect brunch spot! I loved sitting outside on the patio. The eggs benedict were delightful, the flavors were just right, and the cocktails were refreshing. The service was friendly and accommodating. Only downside was that they didn’t have a lot of options for non-alcoholic drinks. A well-deserved 5 stars for the relaxing experience.

" Enjoyed a delightful meal. The seafood was fresh and expertly prepared. I loved the ambiance, which made for a lovely evening. The only downside was the wait time for our food—everything took a little too long to arrive. But once it did, it was delightful! Would definitely recommend for a special night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" I grabbed a quick dinner here and found it to be average. The decor was stylish, but my plate left something to be desired. The mussels were a bit tough, and while the fries were nice, they didn't compensate for the overall flavor of the meal. Maybe a different dish would have suited me better. I might consider giving it another go! " (*Curated Review*)
