Spent my birthday there with my family (was also my husband's birthday the day before) and we had so much fun. The food was fresh, delicious and amazing and we didn't really care too much about the noise level because we were busy talking and catching up with the family. I would definitely go back there again. Thank you to our server, Kelsey. She was the best and gave so many amazing recommendations. Thank you, La Serre!

Lovely way to spend a special lunch. Our server was engaging, helpful and knowledgeable; food was tremendous. The wine list, though pricey, is excellent. Our only disappointment was that we were unable to partake of the 1/2 off champagne due to a long drive back home. This is a go-to for creative French, not too heavy and a wonderful experience!

We had a fantastic brunch! The food was delicious, and the ambience was beautiful, making it a wonderful overall experience. A special shout-out to Christina, the manager, who was absolutely amazing! She was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. She definitely knows how to treat guests and make everyone feel special. Her hospitality truly stood out and made all the difference. Unfortunately, our waitress could have been a little more pleasant and welcoming, but Christina more than made up for it with her exceptional customer service and professionalism. Between the delicious food, beautiful atmosphere, and Christina’s outstanding hospitality, this restaurant is absolutely worth visiting. We will definitely be back! Thank you, Christina, for making our brunch so enjoyable!

Everything was excellent. From the welcome when you come in the door to the last desert. All the food was great. Some of the best quality steaks I have ever had. Will our server made sure that we wanted for nothing. He was the best. Thank you so much for making our Monday dining experience so special.
