Where else can you find a lechón croissant and a guava & cheese waffle on the same menu? Add in the chicken salad with the perfect amount of adobo, and you’ve got flavors that keep you talking long after the plates are cleared.
Our friends and we left smiling from ear to ear. Can’t wait to come back and eat our way through more of the menu.
We arrived around 7:00 pm and the dining room was surprisingly empty at first, but by 8:30 pm the place filled up and really came to life.
Brasserie Laurel gets French cuisine right — classic, precise, and respectful of tradition. Foie gras, French onion soup, frog legs, Beef Wellington — every dish was balanced, well-executed, and true to its roots.
Service was genuinely great. Friendly, professional, and perfectly timed — attentive without hovering or rushing. You feel taken care of, but never pressured.
The only small disappointment was that escargot and beer weren’t available that evening — especially since escargot was one of the main reasons we chose to come here. That said, the quality of the food and service more than made up for it.
Had a great time and would absolutely come back.
We started with oysters and were very impressed with their freshness and presentation. The French Onion Soup was absolutely outstanding — a rich beef broth with delicate, sweet notes of perfectly caramelized onions and a beautifully melted cheese crust.
For the main courses, we ordered the gnocchi with an incredible sauce and the Wellington, both cooked to perfection and full of flavor. For dessert, we chose the flan — delicate, well-balanced, and the perfect ending to the meal.
The bar deserves special mention as well: the cocktails were excellent and crafted with great care. A lovely bonus is that the restaurant also offers happy hour, which makes the experience even more enjoyable.
Everything from the food to the service and atmosphere was exceptional. We will definitely be back.
We were a bit shocked when we arrived and saw the menu because we were expecting something very different. The food was not special at all—very average. For example, I ordered the bowl, and it came with rice, some vegetables on the side, and grilled chicken. There were no sauces or anything, so it felt very bland.
The atmosphere was not great either. Besides the restaurant being empty, it felt very quiet, serious, and not very welcoming.
On the other hand, the service and staff were marvelous—super nice and attentive. They were definitely the best part of this new restaurant concept.
Hopefully they will open for dinner again and bring back the French dishes shown in the photos. Currently, almost nothing you see in the photos is actually available at the restaurant, so they should update the pictures to avoid misleading customers.
The food was incredible. We had the beef Wellington, a salad that was amazing and the muscles to start.
Our server was extremely attentive and knowledgeable the wines where really good
I highly recommend it
The atmosphere is beautiful, with elegant and cozy decor that makes it perfect for both relaxing and getting work done comfortably. The service was impeccable, fast, friendly, and attentive throughout the entire experience.
I loved the freshness of the food and the attention to detail in every aspect. It is the perfect place to come work with a great coffee, have meetings, or simply enjoy a delicious meal in a lovely setting.
I am extremely satisfied and highly recommend it. I will definitely be coming back.
