" Went for a casual dinner, assuming it would be like most other places I'd been. Boy, was I wrong! The French has a special touch. The décor feels classy yet comfortable. I opted for the special of the day, which was a seafood risotto. Every bite was a delight. The service was attentive, and the waitress made sure I wasn't missing anything. I ended the meal with the crème brûlée, which was heavenly. Will definitely spread the word! " (*Curated Review*)

" A lovely evening and exquisite food! We didn’t have reservations but thankfully they managed to find us a spot. I started with the charcuterie board, which paired perfectly with our wine choice. For the main, I had something seasonal that was delicious. The servers were polite and attentive, making us feel valued. The dessert was a delicious end to a perfect meal. I would definitely recommend and come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, The French exceeded my expectations! I went on a recommendation and was very impressed. The ambiance is chic yet comfortable, adorned with lovely artwork. The foie gras was divine; I can't wait to have it again. My partner had a burger which he claimed was one of the best he ever had. We ended with the house-made macarons that were just as delightful as the rest of our meal. Already planning our next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my experience at The French! The atmosphere is both cozy and elegant, making it perfect for a romantic dinner. I ordered the duck confit and it was cooked to perfection—crispy skin, tender meat, and beautiful presentation. Our server was attentive and made excellent wine recommendations. I can't wait to go back and try more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a fantastic work gathering here! The food was extraordinary and the service was equally impressive. We tried several platters of appetizers and each one was delicious, especially the goat cheese salad. They had a nice selection of wines too, which paired perfectly with the food choices. The venue itself was classy and welcoming. I’d recommend it for group events or a special occasion. " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere is wonderful at The French, truly a hidden gem! However, I expected a bit more out of the food. The salmon was fresh but somewhat bland, and the dessert menu, while enticing, didn't quite deliver in taste as I had anticipated. The service was attentive, though. It’s worth a visit if you're in the area, but I’d probably stick to brunch next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" A delightful evening! The service was exceptional, and I felt very looked after throughout the meal. I chose the duck confit, which was rich and delicious. My friend ordered the vegetarian option, and she said it was full of flavors. The dessert of the day was equally impressive. I would recommend The French to anyone looking for a nice dining experience with authentic French cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)
