We dined at this French-inspired restaurant, and while the food was truly delicious, the overall experience had a few rough edges.
The ambiance is lovely – elegantly decorated to transport you straight to Paris. The lighting, decor, and even the background music create a charming European atmosphere. The menu features beautifully written French dish names that add to the immersive feel.
We started with a light and flavorful asparagus salad, followed by a perfectly cooked pork chop served with creamy mashed potatoes and fresh green peas. Everything was thoughtfully prepared and tasted amazing. The real standout, though, was the dessert – absolutely incredible and beautifully presented. Whole new experience if you will.
However, the service wasn’t quite as polished as the setting. When my wife tried to order by reading the French name of the dish directly from the menu, our waiter didn’t seem to understand what she meant, which led to a slightly awkward and unexpected moment in such a themed restaurant.
Also the area where we were seated was quite noisy, making it difficult to hear my friends and enjoy the visit.
In short, the food exceeded our expectations, and the setting was charming, but the service kept the experience from being fully relaxing. Still, if you’re after great French cuisine with a side of Parisian flair, this spot is well worth a visit.

My wife and I dined at La Crémaillère last Friday to celebrate a milestone — her retirement after 30 years as a nurse practitioner in public health, including the long COVID years. We chose the restaurant because we had enjoyed it years ago under prior ownership and were looking forward to returning.
There were several positives right from the start. Valet and coat check were warm and welcoming, and we were seated promptly in a cozy corner table. The dining room remains lovely and comfortable.
The kitchen clearly shows skill. My wife’s Dover sole ($75) was beautifully prepared and handled with the finesse a delicate fish deserves. I started with sweetbreads ($25). The larger piece was nicely done, though the two smaller pieces were slightly overcooked. My squab special ($47) was flavorful and well prepared. Desserts were enjoyable as well, though the tart crust was quite firm and crumbly.
Where the evening slipped was in the service. Our waiter appeared understandably focused on larger tables ordering cocktails and bottles of wine, but we felt somewhat overlooked in our corner. A request for an additional roll required two asks and a fairly long wait, and we also waited quite a while for the check.
One curious detail stood out on the bill. I ordered seltzer with very little ice and received four small pours during the evening. The check reflected four separate $7 charges — $28 total — for what appeared to be gun-dispensed sparkling water, as no bottled product was presented.
As someone who has spent many years in hospitality, it was hard not to notice that the seltzer ended up costing more than the sweetbreads — which, as any cook knows, require quite a bit of preparation before they ever reach the pan.
La Crémaillère still has a charming setting and a capable kitchen. With more consistent attention to service — and perhaps a second look at the sparkling water policy — the overall experience could better match the potential of the restaurant.
A small thought from someone who has spent a lifetime around kitchens: when the carbonated tap water costs more than the sweetbreads, it might be time to revisit the math.

I had a superb dinner tonight with my wife and another couple. Our server Mario was truly exceptional and our dinners were delicious. The beet salad and crab cake started us off and were excellent. I had the Chilean Sea Bass and my wife the Filet Mignon. Great taste, cooked to my liking, all with Mario’s very attentive service. For dessert I had the Grand Mariner Soufflé with a cappuccino and the nice pastry’s that they brought to us were very thoughtful…and yummy. They deserve 5-stars because everything from the start to the finish was a delectable and memorable experience. Thank you!!!

Well-prepared, classic fancy French cooking, and a nice cellar list, too. They will have small twists (popular, seasonal), but you always get options fitting the old school style: savory and sweet souffles, snails in herb butter, foie gras, sweetbreads, filet of sole, various medium rare meats, etc. The positive surprise to me was the fish, which I don’t always expect to be this carefully made in a “country” restaurant.
It can be fun to dress up for a date night, but in case you are a walk-in or visiting, the “jacket required” rule for men doesn’t appear to be strictly enforced.

Doesn’t particularly stand out. Love the little fish pillows in the entryway couch. And the chicken sculptures.
For the offered menu it is pricey, the bill came out to 400$ for three.
For example a plate appetizer of 4 large shrimp is 25$ with sauce, abundant ice and 4 lemon slices. Though it was tasty.
Nothing on the main menu, non appetizer offers were vegan.
Plenty of parking.
We were there for father’s day, the restaurant had plenty of staff, and wasn’t too packed. But it did require a reservation, which we made.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at La Cremaillere and I must say, it was an absolutely unforgettable experience! From the moment I walked in, I was captivated by the enchanting ambiance.
The quaint French atmosphere, complete with delightful service and soft lighting, transported me to a quaint French village.
What truly stole the show were the incredible culinary creations that graced our table. The duck and lamb chop I indulged in were cooked to perfection, bursting with flavors that left me craving for more. The meat was tender, juicy, and paired perfectly with the accompanying sauces and sides… Let’s talk about the soufflé, oh my goodness! It was an absolute masterpiece and surely the best I’ve ever tasted, not only within La Cremaillere but in the entire country! Chef Thomas Burke’s expertise shone brightly in this light, airy, and incredibly flavorful creation.
It was as if time froze while I savored every spoonful. Highly recommend the chef’s tasting menu and La Cremaillere restaurant!

Lovely fixed price brunch for Bastille Day. The chef is gone but a loyal staff remains along with an excellent new chef.

Since we moved to the area we have been looking for a new favourite restaurant. We wanted something with good food, a nice but relaxing atmosphere, and staff that make you feel welcome. We found everything we were looking for and more. La Crémaillère has become our go to for special events and date night. We go 1-2 times a month minimum and the menu is constant, but has enough new items and options to keep guests coming back for me.

I treated my family to dinner at La Cremaillere last evening and will not return any time soon. We ate there years ago and heard it was under new management so we gave it a try. The restaurant is still pretty and romantic.
It took just over three hours to eat a three course meal with service lapses between courses. The food was as disappointing as was the lack of good service. The steak tartare was overrun with sauces. The “crispy sweetbreads” were served soggy. My Dover Sole was riddled with multiple bones. Others at our table said that the lobster appetizer was delicious and the steak as well as the lamb was very tasty. My wife’s halibut was dry. We expressed early in the meal that we would have soufflés for dessert but still had to wait 20 minutes for them to be served. The tab for the six of us was close to $1,000. For that price, both the service and food could have been better.
