We had such an enjoyable Christmas Eve dinner experience at La Bise. The restaurant decor and ambience was cozy yet artsy. All the staff, from the maitre d to the bartender to our waiter to the support start were friendly and attentive. The food was fantastic and the prix fixe selection was generous. Such a lovely evening! Thank you!

We changed reservations so upon arrival the new reservation did not show up~and it was crowded. The hostess checked with the manager and went ahead and seated us which was great. We had driven a long ways to eat at this restaurant. The food was fantastic. The server was amazing. I highly recommend this restaurant. Great service by Josue Romero.

Had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious and the service was great. We sat at the counter and were able to watch the chef make everything. Since we went on a Monday, wine was market price, so we enjoyed the salmon special and pork chop with a bottle of wine. Too bad they're closing the restaurant portion, because we would definitely go back. Looking forward to taking some cooking classes there though!
