" L’Ostal gives you a taste of France with every meal! I found the menu to be thoughtfully curated. Most of the dishes are both unique and familiar at the same time. The staff knew the menu well and were more than happy to offer suggestions. While the food was delightful, the ambiance could certainly use some improvement. It was quite noisy, which made conversing difficult at times. Still, it was a great experience overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a fantastic meal at L'Ostal last night. The ambiance was intimate and perfect for a date night. I ordered the steak and it was cooked to perfection. The side dishes complemented the meal wonderfully. I was particularly impressed with the wine selection. The staff seemed knowledgeable and were eager to share their recommendations. However, the prices are on the higher side, but the quality of the food justified that. I would certainly visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" I honestly can’t say enough good things about L'Ostal! The food was incredible—authentic French flavors presented beautifully. I especially enjoyed the Sformato; it was simply divine! The service was equally commendable; our waiter was knowledgeable and made great recommendations. While the atmosphere was cozy, it did get a bit noisy at times. Nonetheless, it’s a small price to pay for such a marvelous dining experience. Can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" L'Ostal shines when it comes to delivering authentic Southern French cuisine. We started with the escargot, which was cooked to perfection. Following that, I had the duck and my partner enjoyed the halibut. Both dishes were exceptionally crafted with rich flavors. The atmosphere felt welcoming and intimate—perfect for a lovely dinner. While we enjoyed every aspect of our meal, we did find it a bit on the pricey side. Nonetheless, it was worth it! " (*Curated Review*)
