    I went her yesterday with my boyfriend to celebrate our anniversary and Valentine’s Day. The service was amazing. I was impressed on how the staff made sure our table was cleaned before each meal. Even when we made a small mess because we ate their flaky croissants the waiter cleaned it. They always made sure our waters were filled and they checked on us to make sure we were properly attended to. The food was absolutely delicious. The truffle risotto was amazing as well as the A5 Hokkaido wagyu steak we ordered. I also loved that they gave us a card and a little plate that said “happy anniversary” made us feel rather special. Definitely would want to go again. Love the experience I had.

    Such a unique experience. From the decor to the menu. We keep it simple - salad, cheese fondue and of course, a dark chocolate extravaganza for desert. Service is efficient and friendly. I know people think of La Fondue as a special occasion place, but it really shouldn't be.

    In looking for a local “Spanish” tapas, I found PintxoPote. What a delightful surprise to have a type of tapas or small bites of Basque origin as opposed to typical Spanish tapas, which there are other restaurants nearby offering that. Their dishes were unique and delicious. All were prepared on the spot. It is obvious that the owner and staff take pride in the food they serve, and the manner in which it is served. The wine selection is also very good and pairs as well with the foods offered. For a unique boutique experience. I definitely suggest trying this restaurant. We will definitely return!
