    The Cafe Escadrille never disappoints. It’s a favorite spot for my family and especially great during the holiday season. I consider it a great value for the money spent!

    Table for 11 is difficult but it felt like we were in public hallway not in restaurant. Also draft for door was felt whenever door opened.

    Quality of the food was good. More seasonings needed on the steaks. (Salt) Clam chowder not as good as usual. To much lemon juice in it and the usual flavor profile was lacking. Upper room was way to bright. No ambiance. Overall it was a nice dining experience.

    Wonderful dinner last night at Cafe Escadrille. Our server Andrew D was fabulous as always. Husband and I shared bay scallops appetizer (extremely yummy) followed by the Perfect pair for him and baked stuffed shrimp for me. Both entrees excellent. Highly recommend as always

    Let me start with the positives - the service was excellent. The ambiance was also excellent. The food was some of the worst I’ve had in a restaurant, made particularly offensive by the outrageous prices they charge. The duck was overcooked and flavorless. The sweet potato was also overcooked and unseasoned. The seafood pasta was okay but lacking any interesting flavor. The clam chowder was a thick gelatinous mess. The $70 “buttercream” SMALL birthday cake had shortening frosting! Several of us were up all night with food hangovers (no alcohol) and our bill was astoundingly high. Never again.

    We had a very nice time at Cafe Escadrille. It had been many years since the last time we were here - due to our last experience including inattentive service and mediocre food. We were impressed to see that those issues have been solved. Our server was very attentive and informative. Each dish was inviting and delicious. We will be back soon.
