" Disappointing, unfortunately. The service was quite slow, and I had to send my steak back for being overcooked. It was a lovely place, but the food and service failed to meet the expectations set by the reviews I read. Won't be returning soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" What an amazing hidden gem in Greenwich! The bouillabaisse was fresh and beautifully cooked, encapsulating everything I love about seafood. The ambiance is delightful for an evening out. This place has quickly become one of my favorites, and I will be returning shortly. " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience wasn't as I expected. Although the food was good, it wasn't the authentic French experience I was hoping for. The service, while friendly, was too slow. " (*Curated Review*)

" Outstanding from start to finish! The flavors in each meal were bar none. I especially loved the cannoli dessert and the deep-fried calamari. Such a treat for the taste buds, mixed with excellent service throughout. " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing service and delightful food! The dishes were so fresh, and flavors were on point. The only downside was that the tables are quite close together, which can lead to some awkward conversations next to you. " (*Curated Review*)

" Le Penguin offers a solid dining experience overall, but the noise level was surprising for my dinner. Although the food was delicious, I’d recommend it for a casual lunch rather than a romantic dinner, unless you enjoy vibrant bistro energy. " (*Curated Review*)

" Okay, but not great. The prix fixe menu lacked a bit of variety. While the Coq au Vin was satisfying, I had hoped for more innovative dishes. It was nice to try, but I don't think I would hurry back. " (*Curated Review*)
