| dlai70's Full Review: Cafe des Artistes |
I went there with my family looking for excellent French cuisine. I had the hen with caramaized onions, it was ok but not impressive. My wife had red snapper. The snapper was ordinary and there was no presentation. It was like they put the snapper with clams and pasta in a bowl. It reminded her of Italian dish. My neice had the steak with fries. Again it was so so. My sister-in-law had the pot au something. It was like a duck leg stew. It reminded her of a Chinese dish similiar to bee stew with noodles, nothing that stood out. The beef tartare and the salmon 4 way appetizer and the chocalate mousse was good but not great. Service was almost non-existant when we arrive there. Had to get the waiter to place our order. The room near the bar is dark for my taste. Its good if you are a celebrity and don't want to get noticed. Overall food was very expensive and left you unsatisfied. If you like old world charm then this place is for you. As for us we will never go back. I can get better food for a fraction of the price.
