    We celebrated my husband's 80th birthday with family. We went at 1:30 on a Sunday for lunch in the main restaurant. We had a table in the corner so it was quiet and we got to visit over an absolutely delicious lunch. The lobster bisque is wonderful!

    Only 5 stars? I'd give more if I could. L'Auberge Chez François is consistently outstanding in terms of ambience, service, quality, and selection. It is quite simply the finest dining in the DMV. I often recommend this restaurant to friends and they later thank me because their dining experience was perfect.

    A perfect evening of celebrating many years together. Our waitress was warm and attentive along with the entire team. We weren’t rushed and each dish was delicious and outstanding. Although we have visited numerous times before, this was our first evening dining here. The wagyu beef cheeks appetizer was amazing and perfect on a winter night. The lobster and veal scallopini entrees were equally delicious and well prepared. We finished our meal with the soufflé and it was the only way to end a wonderful meal in a beautiful setting and with the one I love.
