    In speaking with our waiter I realized I’ve been delighted by dining at Ches Francois for 40 years. We arrived at 6:00 pm and shortly after being seated my wife and I were greeted by the owner, Chez Jacque. I congratulated Jacque in celebrating the Haeringer family’s 70th year owning and operating Chez Francois. (there was a large stand alone plaque at the entrance announcing the 70 years) Jacque’s comment when I congratulated him was, “yes two generations of crazy restaurateurs”. I could not argue with him. Only absolute dedication, commitment and tireless energy produces the wonderfully amazing results this family has delivered decade after decade. Every bite of food I’ve ever eaten at Chez Francois has been a culinary delight. Every meal I’ve had (I estimate in the neighborhood of 150 meals) have been absolutely enjoyable. Thank you for making my life’s journey a bit more special and Merry Christmas Chez Jacques to you, your family and your entire staff. Gratefully yours Bryan B

    Once again, a lovely dining experience. Our server perfectly paced the meal and each course was delicious. Among the highlights: tender sweetbreads appetizer, rack of lamb and lobster/crab entrees. We were so full and the graciously packed up our desserts in “to go” boxes. A delightful meal.

    A truly amazing dining experience. Top tier in every way. Our waiter and supporting staff had everything timed perfectly. The food was excellent and they made us feel special. Very expensive but for an unique meal, this is the place to go.

    I always love to go here. I never eat red meat at home, so having my filet cooked perfectly (well done) every time is fab. I have never been disappointed with anything!!
