    We are season subscribers to Berkeley Rep and have been trying all the restaurants in the vicinity. To date, La Note has been our favorite. A 6:00 reservation was perfect to have dinner and walk to the show with no stress. The food was amazing; perhaps even better than most of the meals I had when spending time in France. We had the Bouillabaisse and Ratatouille, two classic french dishes, and they were both excellent. There were several other offerings on the menu that look intriguing so we will be back, soon.

    The Bouillabaise was outstanding - -very generous serving of fish and seafood in an excellent broth. And we chose the White Burgundy, which was a terrific accompanying wine. Our server was very accommodating; however, when we told her at 6:30pm that we had an 8:30 show to get to and asked specifically if we had enough time for the Bouillabaise, she indicated that it would take 15-20 minutes. Unfortunately we weren't served until nearly 7:10pm so we had to rush and didn't have time for dessert. But we'll be back -- the food was excellent!

    Our waitress - student at Berkeley City College (do not know her name) - was absolutely outstanding. Give her a raise!

    Excellent rustic french cuisine! Relaxed atmosphere. Live classical guitar. Attentive and friendly staff. We were content to enjoy it all and conversation among friends until we realized we might be late for the concert and had to hustle out. Staff was very helpful in this and not at all put off. Always happy to return here for the mussels, stew, and anything else!

    This provincial French restaurant serves a delightful menu. The service can be a bit sleepy. However, the food is delicious. I had a puff pastry filed with seafood that surpassed my expectations.

    A friend from my improvisation troupe and my daughter went there, coincidentally, on international women's day. Great food, service, conversation, ambience, and even the other diners were fun.
