    Terrible experience as for food. Showed up with reservation booked several hours in advance and then interrogated about when we booked and made to feel lucky they reluctantly actually gave us a table. Reminiscent of a bad Seinfeld episode. Ordered 1 course only, took well over an hour. Randomly sent some appetizer (very rich, greasy, unhealthy- all carbs and greasy fried stuff we can’t/ don’t choose to eat due to dietary restrictions ). Would have been nice if they apologized for ridiculous delay and asked what we would like in the meantime. A lot of people are gluten intolerant these days and or just choosing not to eat heavy greasy fried food. Going on 9pm with 7:30 reservation and no edible food…we asked our absolutely delightful server ( 6 stars for her) how long? Food arrived shortly thereafter as we were seriously about to hit Burger King which is a supreme act of desperation on my part. My husband liked his duck entree. My cavatapi was severely undercooked, and portion was priced as main, size was appetizer. I’m 110 female, just for context. Been here before… give every place several chances before I post. We want our local restaurants to do well! Unfortunately, I can’t recommend this place. 3x now. The menu is too unhealthy, like in an out of touch kind of way. And this is my field…. I’m an rn foodie with dietitian and French expertise. French is not the best if you want heathy but try La Coquille or La Framboise if you must have French. They have adapted. Our server was the same lady every time, sorry we didn’t get her name. But she was excellent, absolutely excellent. And the reason we came back.3x, after previous dining experiences fell seriously short.

    Amazing dinner experience!!! We met the owner and Chef Rob who was incredibly nice, friendly and gave us awesome dinner recommendations! We did the three pasta course and one was better than the next! The pasta is made in house and it was perfect. Lisa our waitress was very attentive & made super we had everything we need. Thank you both for such a wonderful night, looking forward to many more meals there!

    I thought I was coming to a French restaurant but I don’t know what it was.. some good.. scollops , lasagna and some different.. peanut butter bacon. The crab cake was tasty too but everything was on a bun or on toast and since I don’t eat a lot of bread, this was t of interest. I’d have liked a crab cake, normal size and a vedgetable or salad.. or even the avacado fries. Just found it all too breadsticks and wierd combos.

    Lovely setting for a quiet dinner. Our waiter was very nice and accommodating. The service was slow as they looked to be short staffed. The menu was misleading in that key ingredients were left off. Th crab cake was actually crab salad on toast. The 'hamburger with lettuce and tomato' had blue cheese, etc.... The roasted potatoes that accompanied the steak were not cooked through. Overall would not recommend at this time.

    I am not usually one to write a review but I felt compelled to recognize Maldon & Mignonette for my amazing experience! I was there on a busy Saturday night and the service was so attentive! They have a seasonal menu and SO MANY GLUTEN FREE options I couldn't decide what to try. I decided on the oxtail croquettes which were crunchy bites of deliciousness with a fig jam on the bottom and the Paccheri pie OMG gluten free pasta with meat and cheese just like a slice of lasagna! Heaven! If you haven't been before you should give this GEM a try!

    Valentines Day price fixe…..soooo bad. 1 1/2 hrs in….I only got my drink, my wife never got hers. And we only received the appetizer. Oh wait, correction. We got a thin slice of half cold half warm piece of bread that came out on a dish from hell. Hell because it was 200 degrees. Two tables walked out after an hour, they never got any food, drinks, a clean table, etc. To the chef owner, it’s not enough to have decent if not pretentious food. Paintings with quotes of 3 chefs on the wall was a clue to the pretentiousness coming. Service was by an elderly lady that did nothing all night, a waiter/bar tender/busses/greeter/runner (same person) that was not even qualified as the runner. He actually dropped the check for a table and was told they didn’t even get their entrees yet, he didn’t even cop to the mistake, he said he knew and it was just so they didn’t mess up later. The actual runner was a nice kid but was noticeably not trained. This is a reservation only, price fixe menu. You know how many dishes, customers etc. you were absolutely not prepared. 360$ dinner, I only tipped out of empathy. Oh my scallop entrees was appetizer size and ice cold. The sauce already congealed. Dessert plate was again so hot, the quenelle of ice cream (some pretentiousness again) melted before the dessert got to my table. I think it was a Duncan Hines cake mix. Decor…I was upset I made a reservation at a crap restaurant the second I saw the decor. Sooo bad. The whole ordeal was 3 hrs long for an appetizer, entree and dessert. I’ve eaten a 15 course meal in less time…sorry now I’m being pretentious.

    I was a little put off by the confirmation call I received which stated "if you don't call back by 4 your reservation will be cancelled." That was a first, very rude, and not sure what the purpose is of making and confirming a reservation on open table. All was good when we arrived, and we wanted to order some appetizers to start, but we were told we could not unless we placed our entire order at the same time. We ultimately ordered the M&M sampler, which was ok. The pretzels were awesome - hot and fresh with just the right amount of salt. Main courses were Pork Chop, Scallops, Halibut and Duck Ravioli. Everyone was very happy with their respective entrees as the food was delicious. Service was a bit spotty. I think they were still in training. We could not get someone to come to the table to pick up the check for payment, but ultimately did. Other than kinks in the service, it was a good night and we would return.

    Very dark lighting, had to use a flashlight to see the food. 1 main waiter for the entire restaurant for a Saturday night, with 1 assistant server and 1 busboy. Food was middling. Appetizer of bacon and peanuts was tasty but fatty. Octopus was not flavorful. Side fish of brussels was good. Main dish of beef stew was tender but flavor was very mild. Chicken pot pie was topped with a big piece of corn bread, not pie crust or pastry; flavor was okay. Halibut was cooked correctly, tender, but flavor was very bland. Not worth a return trip. None of the deserts were gluten-free friendly except chocolate ice cream.

    This chef /owner makes every visit special because his food is excellent. He has his staples and even they are unique such as the pork belly and peanut butter (addicting), and a great Caesar salad which is getting harder to find. I love the duck, classical and crispy.

    We tried three different pastas and each one was excellent - lasagna, gnocchi, cacio e pepe. The pretzels with mustard sauce were an excellent starter along with a salad and roast carrots. The chef came around to ask about our meal which is a lovely personal touch.

    Food was ok. Our waiter not great w knowledge of menu. I ordered Harvest salad (that was good) as app and asked about Branzino vs pasta for dinner. He neglected to tell me the fish came w salad too. I went with fish as per his suggestion. The filed Fish had lots of bones. And couldn’t eat another salad that it came with. The ceasar salad had too much dressing. The place had nice decorations and great music tho:). Parking difficult too. Went for the gluten free aspect .

    Chef Robert is a top-of the-line chef. Both the summer and fall menus were available this week. The charred octopus appetizer was really a warm salad large enough to be shared or eaten as an entree. The octopus was tender and delicious. We had the scallop entree and the duck entree, both were great. The espresso creme brulee with dark chocolates ("crambulay" on the check!) was a perfect finish.
