Best French Restaurants in Northfield

We had a fantastic experience. Our waiters were thoughtful and attentive. We took the advice to have the daily special and it was fabulous. Thank you for a wonderful evening!

North Pond is an absolute gem. From the moment we stepped in and gave our name at the host stand, we were warmly welcomed, setting the tone for an exceptional evening. The atmosphere is intimate and inviting, with the beauty of Lincoln Park providing a stunning backdrop. Our server was knowledgeable and engaging, taking the time to walk us through the menu and wine pairings with care and enthusiasm. The tasting menu was nothing short of spectacular—each dish showcased the chef’s creativity and meticulous attention to detail. The flavors were inventive and harmonious, and the wine pairings elevated every course beautifully. My wife and I always cherish our time at North Pond. It’s not just a meal; it’s an experience that lingers with you long after the evening ends. If you’re looking for a restaurant that seamlessly blends artistry, flavor, and a sense of place, North Pond is a must-visit.

I invited two colleagues to Aboyer as a thank you for their excellent work. We were greeted at the door where our coats were taken and then ushered to our well placed table. We then met our friendly and capable waiter who explained the menu. The fig Manhattan was the perfect beginning to all of the small plates that we ordered during happy hour. Everything was delicious, beautifully presented and delivered by the capable staff. I/we will be back!

Food was good as usual but the wine by the glass is disgraceful. It is really undrinkable and way overpriced The cost of a glass is more than the bottle. What a shame to spoil a good meal with such poor one. Ruins whole experience

Perfect spot for a quiet Tuesday night birthday meal, trying some heretofore unsampled French cuisine in a comfortable and warm setting. Our server was conversant in all aspects of the menu and attentive to every detail, especially the water glasses and bread. I had a pre-dinner Jilly's Fashioned cocktail that really hit the spot, and the appetizers, beet salad, and entrees (bouillabaisse in my case) were winners.
