    Chef prepared a custom tasting menu for us. It was very reminiscent of our NYC holiday dinners from the past. Every plate was more delicious than the previous. Well Done! Service was spot on. Zero issues.

    Has the lunch menu which is great value: mushroom veloute and branzino a la plancha. The dining room was full at lunchtime on a weekday which was surprising. Service was nevethless efficient and dishes were served promptly and cooked to perfection. Never a surprise at L"Escale.

    The experience was very nice. The food was excellent. I had chicken martini, while my wife had spaghetti with shrimp fra diavlo. Both were expertly prepared. We shared a tri-color salad, which was good but because we shared it, you would say its on the smaller side. No dessert. Wait staff was attentive. It was a Tuesday night and not very busy so we were well cared for. All-in-all, it was very pleasant.

    GERARD greeted us most cordially and offered us prime seating by the window. As we enjoyed our cocktails, I reviewed the menu for something I hadn’t tried in the past… of course we had to have the Lobster Shooters first… but instead of one of the many seafood offerings which I usually enjoy, I decided on the Duck served with Lo Mein noodles…fantastic! Chef Adrian never ceases to amaze. We will be back soon.
