Visited for our anniversary dinner. The staff recognized the event but I was surprised they didn’t off a dessert as a congrats and thank you.
We have not had much “classic French food” so we didn’t know what to expect. We ordered two appetizers and two entrees. The smoked salmon app didn’t seem to have any smoked flavor so that was odd. The French onion soup was good, but not what I expected.
My wife had the salade nicoise, she enjoyed that. I had the steak with fries (it still seems strange to write it) we added on shrimp and lobster and all of these items were cooked really well.
I don’t use a lot of steak sauce but thinking the French are the sauce kings I inquired. The kitchen made me something on the spot. They should bottle it.
As for desserts, those were a home run. I had the French Silk Pie cake and it was amazing with their French pressed coffee.
We were allowed to explore the house and it was fun to see. What a place. A masterpiece of construction. It’s amazing people could do this level of detailed work way back when.
Definitely recommended.

My husband and I journeyed to La Cross after hearing recommendations to visit La Cave & The Chateau- both owned by the same people and located in the same stunning vintage house. We started our evening at La Cave and had a marvelous time enjoying custom cocktails. Then we ventured upstairs to The Chateau where we enjoyed delicious French-inspired cuisine. The beautifully decorated rooms enhanced the dinning experience and each bite left us wanting more. Highly recommend!

First time here and the ambiance was Amazing! The bar downstairs in the “cave” was really neat, there’s plenty of room to sit with friends. We toured the home while we waited for our food. The waitress and staff were friendly, the drinks were delicious and the food was ok. My fish was too salty but I still ate it all. My wife was not happy with her scallops, the noodles were bland and mushy.

This restaurant lives up to its name. It’s like a castle or a palace with very nicely decorated rooms and a high-class decor. The staff is very nice and the food was delicious. I had the lobster risotto with french onion soup to start and lime cheesecake for dessert.

Upscale French dining experience. The owner has a delightful French accent. The dining areas are small so you are never in a loud environment. The food was great. I had the Elk. So good! We had a pretty view of the back yard complete with flowers pool and fountain. The wine list was great. Not the usual poor wines that spend more on advertising than what goes in the bottle. We arrived early and went down to Le Cave for cocktails. The spiral stairs were fun. The craft cocktails were spectacular. This is a good choice if you want an experience more unique than most.

We had an exceptional stay for our 25th anniversary! The food was spectacular – my husband had salmon and I had scallops – so good. The dessert was to die for! The aura of the mansion is very elegant- LaCave underneath the restaurant was crazy- with yummy drinks! Highly recommend!

Le Chateau has the most amazing atmosphere! Everything from the decor to the food to the staff are second to none! I have had the privilege of both dining there and also photographing a wedding as well as an engagement. I highly recommend checking it out for an amazing unique experience!

Excellent experience. I recommend making a reservation and coming before the reservation to enjoy drinks downstairs in the Cave. The Elk and Ribeye were excellent. The Cinderella drink was fantastic, too. The desserts are amazing, you have to try them!!!

Horrible service. Wanted to have a glass if wine in Le Cave. There were 5 empty seats at the bar. I asked the bartender if my wife and I could sit there. He said it was open. I sat and waited for my wife to join me from upstairs. Another bartender came over and said the other 4 seats were reserved now. I said that my wife was coming down, but the bartender said we had to leave.
Absolutely horrible service. Avoid this place if you can.

The atmosphere of La Chateau will speak to only certain people, as it has the feel of eating inside a very old home. The interior we will kept and the staff were very inviting. Our service was fast and attentive. But the food. Oh, the food is incredible!
