    The food and service were great! I would have liked if the waiter slowed down a bit when telling us about the specials as none of us at the table really understood him

    Great food & drink, nicely prepared and presented! Great service by the waitstaff! My only complaint, one that I have with MANY restaurants, is the noise level. Once the restaurant started to fill up, it became much more difficult for us to hear each other. We will go back again, just trying to avoid crowded times!

    DEPAULs is among our favorite restaurants. Centrally located in ARDMORE with convenient valet parking, it is a most pleasant atmosphere with a wide ranging menu and top quality service. We had crab cocktail, caesar salad, salmon, lamb chops and sides including spinach and haricots verts. Drinks -both cocktails and wines- are well prepared and fine quality. Desserts -we had cheesecake and the brownie a la mode- were delicious as well. We had been to DEPAUL several times before . It has been consistently very high quality. My only complaint is that the prices on all items continue to rise. This may be necessary to maintain business profits, but are still getting a bit out of hand. (lamb chops for 64 dollars?). Despite that ,however, we all (4 of us) had a most enjoyable meal with the basic elements of food/service/atmosphere all top quality. We will be back for sure -hopefully prices will not continue to increase each time we return
