As always, Chef Lepine and his team delivered a great experience. Somehow he seems to be able to both keep things consistent at Atelier but also always changing. Even if the menu only gets changed at decent intervals the ingredients seem to be tweaked a bit on an ongoing basis. If you’re looking for a performative experience like a high end Beni Hana you’ll be disappointed. No flames at your table or too much whimsy. The experience lies in the food. Here you get something a little bit more subtle but no less experiential - well paced little waves of food hit your table, you get explanations of each that I can never remember once uttered and you’re left with the food. It always seems a bit overwhelming at first, but being left alone with the food without other distractions keeps your focus where it should be. And somehow, as my son pointed out, it makes you feel like you’re taking a bit of ownership of the experience. I’m sure that this is on purpose.

My husband and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary at l’Atelier. The culinary experience was absolutely out of this world. In addition to some playing 40 delicious dishes, we also did the full wine pairing. The chef also accommodated us for severe food allergies, and gave us some great alternatives. I’m Amelia, our server, and Bernard, our sommelier, made the evening even more memorable. Be prepared to stay for four hours and indulge in every bite!

I enjoyed everything at the restaurant. The food was great and the service was excellent. The only issue was that the AC was a bit too cold, but everything else was perfect.
