    The cocktails, food , and ambience were excellent. The service was pleasant and thoughtful . But one wonders if the restaurant is slightly understaffed , as the waiter disappeared several times , and had to be flagged-down to request bread to accompany the delicious mussels, order a glass of wine to accompany the perfectly cooked scallops and duck confit , etc.

    We celebrated my wife’s birthday at La Gare French restaurant, and it was an unforgettable experience! The food was exquisite, the ambiance was elegant, and the staff were incredibly personable. The Beef Wellington was simply amazing, and the Duck à l’Orange was outstanding. The table-side flambé was a spectacular touch that added to the evening's charm. We couldn’t have asked for a better celebration!

    The food and service were excellent. We arrived at 5 p.m. so service was prompt even though there already were many diners at that early hour. My only quibble is that the French press decaf for two turned out to be half a cup each. Either use smaller cups or provide enough beverage to fill the cup to normal height. The entrée prices were somewhat high but competitive with other similar local restaurants. The desserts, on the other hand, were $14, whereas a local upscale Italian restaurant charges only $10 for all desserts which are at least as good or better than Monti's offerings. The restaurant recently reopened after an extensive remodel, so everything was fresh and new! We were in a booth with very luxurious-feeling leather seat covering.
