Only reason 4 stars on food due to ordered burger med-well and got it med-rare. If I send it back, what does my guest do w/his salmon? That one issue aside, it is a top-shelf experience. and would definitely return.

The overall experience was terrific. The food and service was superb, truly. Always a fan of Brian Lewis! The burger is unparalleled, and the lobster spaghetti was outstanding. The ambiance and and environment is very pleasing and sort of transports you out of Greenwich. The only challenge we had was with the noise level, which was untenable. We were in the back, which might have made it worse.

L'Escale is the nicest restaurants in Greenwich, period. Ambiance, food, service, location and lower noise level than in other restaurants make it a perfect place to eat out.

A bit disappointed to be seated right by the service door to kitchen when there were other tables open. Also did not get the requested booth. Otherwise all good.
