F & B Atlanta Reviews

Great place to meet after work! Glass of wine and share a flatbread! Mushroom risotto was excellent! Love the view of Peachtree Street - Watching everyone else driving past the window! Great Atmosphere!

Its in our neighborhood and an easy stroll...it has a lively after work crowd but the bar slows down and dinner picks up. Great service, the best skate fish ever! Ranks high on my fav for creme' brule as well. Great location, great food, super service!

I ordered the poutine with braised oxtail. It was decent but for a French Bistro I was disappointed to see frozen French Fries as opposed to fresh cut fries. The bartender service was average at best too. I was hoping for better food and service.

Dinner on Christmas eve and food and service was excellent. Mussels and beef burgundy were both excellent. Service was attentive. Great experience.

I believe this restaurant is located inside the Ritz-Carlton. They don't validate parking for the garage (which was only $10.99), but they do validate for valet. The restroom wasn't ideal, no tissue and the soap scent wasn't great but it's located outside of the restaurant itself. Once inside, though, the ambiance made up for it. The décor is lovely with white Christmas lights hanging from the windows, giving it a cozy, romantic vibe. There's live music on Friday and Saturday nights around 6:30 p.m., and the singer was fantastic. K said dinner felt like a scene from a rom-com. Our server wasn't as friendly as K would have liked, but he was attentive and responded nicely to us throughout the meal. We started with the potato soup, which was piping hot and served in a deep bowl, very generous and delicious. The crab salad followed, and I was worried I'd be too full, but it was light and flavorful. I had the trout with potatoes and substituted Brussels sprouts. Everything was seasoned perfectly, and the sprouts were nicely crisp. K ordered the beef with mashed potatoes and a side of broccolini, which had a smoky flavor with a bit of a kick. I actually liked the broccolini more than K did, it was unique and really tasty. For dessert, we shared the apple tart with vanilla ice cream. I thought it was light and lovely, but K wasn't a big fan since he prefers traditional apple pie. Overall, it was a wonderful dinner: great atmosphere, excellent food, and perfect for a date night.

We were seated promptly. Pre set menus had been arranged for the group with choices. Food was served promptly. Salad was cold and tasty F&B House salad. Choose the Trout served with mashed potatoes very good. Great atmosphere, service only a few minutes from the JW Marriott where we stayed.

I was looking forward to dining here as the menu was intriguing. Just a few thoughts: Pros: 1. Attractive and well designed restaurant. 2. Great bar 3. Plating was attractive Cons: 1. Check-in: With a reservation, we were instructed to wait at the bar. Waited 20 minutes and watched 4 other couples come in...and be seated ahead of us. Hostess had forgotten about us. 2. Food: Very bland. Not very flavorful. Pricey. We had the steak and salmon entrees and both were gravely disappointing. 3. Wait staff: Felt as if we were imposing on their evening. Save the $$ and dine elsewhere.

I purchased a gift card to F&B Atlanta as a part of a gala auction item and finally got around to using it. Boy oh boy, why did I wait? Beet salad with peaches and goat cheese, mussels, steak frites...and I was delighted and full. Wait staff was very resourceful and atmosphere was perfect for what we were looking for on a Saturday night.

Had a great dinner on Saturday -- my absolutely favorite salad (a summer salad, going out of the menu soon, unfortunately) -- with tomato gelato and watermelon Carpaccio, their signature fish - skate wing. and crepe suzette for desert. Absolutely delicious. Our server, Laurena, is the best. We always ask to be seated in her area. Besides offering great food... ambiance is really nice, not loud music which is very conducive for a nice, relaxed dinner.

Ordered the French onion soup and it was delicious. The shrimp linguini and beets were amazing. Great drinks and service. Sat at a window seat and had a great view of Peachtree Road.

My husband and I went to F&B for dinner and started off with the fruit and cheese platter. It turned out, that it was plenty for us for our dinner and we just ended up having that. We really enjoyed it, they give you a variety of cheeses, meats and a few other things. We had a very nice time there and look forward to returning for a full dinner the next time.

My husband and I recently moved to Atlanta and we live fairly close to F&B Atlanta. We had been wanting to try this restaurant for awhile and were finally able to dine at F&B Atlanta for lunch one day. We were very impressed by how nice it is inside and how friendly the staff was. Our food was excellent and we will be back to try dinner some time.

Great atmosphere along with top notch customer service and fabulous food. We went on a Saturday night and they had a live singer doing Sinatra covers, he nailed every song. We really enjoyed F & B and would highly recommend this restaurant.

Enjoyed meeting my brother here. He happens to live in the residences above this restaurant. Was very pleasant service. Good food and reasonable prices. Bar looks like a neat place to try also.

The atmosphere was really nice. It seems to be inside of a hotel building. Valet parking complimentary here. The waiter Jeremy had awesome conversation and really knew how to interact with his customers. Decor was interesting. Food was delicious and cooked to perfection.

My daughter and I came for dinner recently while I was in town for business, and I was glad she suggested F&B. Really good food, the bread was awesome, and the wine was delicious. I would come back or recommend F&B anytime.

My daughter and I decided to have a couple of drinks and an appetizer, since we had a long wait for our dinner reservation. The drinks were fabulous! I had a drink called "The Case is Closed" and my daughter had, "The Belly of an Architect." Our appetizer was a wonderful tuna with capers, minced onion and lemon. We enjoyed everything and will definitely make a return to this wonderful establishment.

Love, Love F&B! Current owner is former owner of Le Brasserie la coze which use to be at Lenox mall next to Neiman Marcus. I haven't had a bad meal or service at F&B. great wine selection. The bread is amazing so pace yourself! I'm a huge fan of muscles and this place is hands down amazing! The atmosphere is quaint and the location is a corner of an office building yet feels like the perfect spot. Try it! Cheers!

This is a relatively small restaurant which has a dining area situated oddly next to a bar with TV showing college football. The food was reasonable but some portions (eg, sea bass) were very small. The lobster crepe and full chicken were quite tasty (but still not amazing). It looks like many of the local Buckhead seniors dine here, so the cuisine may be more geared towards them. Otherwise, it’s conveniently located next to Phipps plaza, with a parking structure and valet parking.

Due to plane schedules we had to call to delay our reservation. The staff was extremely gracious and helpful. Although we were the last customers, our orders were well prepared and the waiter attentive. The menu offers a wide choice of dishes which we will explore at another visit.

I just moved to the neighborhood a few weeks ago, and was hoping for a new haunt with good cocktails and decent atmosphere. I had a 'Postman Always Rings Twice' cocktail. It was good, balanced, and wasn't too sweet. Unfortunately it was the only good thing about F&B. I would have probably given the place a 4 star rating on the drinks alone. The service. Is. Awful. The bartender was too interested in talking to/flirting with his regulars to take a drink order. To get a second round, I finally had to stand up and wave to get his attention, even though the bar wasn't that busy. The owner/executive chef was standing around at the end of the bar as his servers and bartenders complained about customers rather loudly, and played on their phones. I would have complained, but management seemed non-existent, and the bartender obviously didn't care - he left my first drink glass on the bar empty when replacing it with the second. It was sadly disappointing.

A small family reunion brought us to F&B, where five of us sampled a number of very good to excellent dishes. Our appetizers included the Thai Lobster Soup and the braised lamb shank risotto, both of which got glowing reviews, and a no-longer-on-the-menu Escargot Bourgignone, which was good, but a little light on both garlic and butter. Our entrees included the Chicken Ballentine, Lobster Tagliatelle, Roast Skate Wing (a little heavy on the salt because of the capers, but otherwise outstanding), Loin of Lamb, and Venison Osso Buco. Presentation is minimal because there are not many vegetables served with most dishes. Portions are generally extremely large, so you won't leave hungry. We found service to be excellent, and the owner, Phillipe, has trained his kitchen staff so well that he is able to get out and mingle with the restaurant's patrons while the kitchen turns out excellent food. Noise level was moderate.

We had a group of 5 for dinner on Wednesday night. We were there early around 6 and a good crowd at the bar grew over time. We all had a round of cocktails prior to looking at the menus. We were waited on by a team of 2-3 with a lead waiter. They were very attentive and responsive. First thing that stood out was there were many good menu options. I could probably go three times and get something different each time. I started with the white bean soup which was very creamy. The addition of truffle oil was nice touch. For dinner I had the pork chop with chow chow on top of spaghetti squash. Perfectly cooked and nice complex flavors. I would definitely recommend F&B and will be back.

F&B has been open a while and we do finally got a chance to visit. Great space, not huge but really beautiful. Bar area is big and inviting. Dining room is broken up into different areas but very open with views of the exhibition kitchen. It was late so we just had a couple nice glasses of wine and apps. Scallops were outstanding. We we for sure get back soon!

Visiting in ATL and a local friend suggested this for lunch. Nice atmosphere, relatively quiet, and nice selection of food. Especially enjoyed the soups (cold day). We stayed a long time and were not hurried at all. Only negative was an “arrogant “ waiter. One of our group commented that all “French” restaurants have this in common. Will go back and will recommend to friends

One of the best seafood dishes I have had. Very flavorful, we'll prepared with each dish having a unique taste and flavor. Highly recommended. Problem was food service was really slow. Got our appetizers and the took for ever for the main course. Then after a long get period having finished our main the waiter asked if wanted dessert.

Wanted to give a 3.5 ,..but couldn’t. The friend that joined me ,...rides by this place everyday for work and had wanted to try it out. Sat at one of the high tops for lunch on a Friday. Could have ordered better,...but had ordered the white bean soup, seemed a little uninspired. Quiche was excellent, and the F&B salad with chicken was nice. My rating was mostly on the service. Not rude, not nice, didn’t offer dessert menu,..and with the vibe we got, we didn’t want to ask for it. Would try it again,...just not sit in the bar area.

First of all, F & B has THE BEST white bean soup with truffle oil. They always have and they still do. Can't say anything good about the bread. It used to be classic sourdough. On Friday night, it nearly tasted stale - or frozen and re-heated. Saturday night the bread tasted fresher, but was still negligible. The Beef Bourguignon is a regular's favorite, and continues to impress with the sauce/flavor. The meat is not always stellar, however, as my Veal Scallopini meat was full of grizzle, as well - but good flavor. I had the trout the next night, and it was delicious. Salmon also was good. Skip the chocolate cake. There is nothing special about it. Creme brûlée is good. Service is good. Unfortunately, the first night, we had a table that got a draft from the nearby door - lots of cigarette smoke every time the door opened, and little bugs. We were there with friends, On Saturday night, they had live music, which was very good and added a pleasant atmosphere to the room.

The history dates back to Brasserie Le Coze and connections to the infamous Le Bernardin in NYC. The menu is true to the French Brasserie style. We had the superb bean soup, which has been on the menu a very long time. Trout with thin beans and roasted potatoes was perfectly prepared. Service was excellent.

Came here for the Buckhead Restaurant Week. Mussels were amazing, coconut broth with onions and parsley. Main courses were great too, Steak frites were very good, the skate wing was above average. White bean soup was terrible. Dessert was the best! Chocolate souffle... Yum.... Crusty outside and gooey inside. Very decadent. Service was impeccable and warm. Will be back for sure.

I love this place jenny our server was great. The pate was wonderful and the bread was to die for. I have eaten in the intercontinental but F&B pate was the best

Start with the quail rosettes which are a brillant quail dish with a lightly fried batter to enhance not cover the flavor of the quail. The beef bourganion is marked by deep, rich flavors of red wine reduced to pure perfection. And the thing that topped the experience was our waiter. Jeremy knew the menu and the complexities of each dish. He created an experience that we celebrated together. This is a "can't miss" spot and ask to sit in Jeremy's section.

We took a chance on F&B after driving up Peachtree Rd.and noticing that they have a small outdoor patio. We love al fresco dining so we did a U-turn to check it out. This restaurant is located in an office building that also houses some very pricey Ritz Carton Residences. There is free valet parking with validation and the chief valet attendant was wearing a really nice suit. It made for a great first impression. F&B is a really beautiful restaurant, lots of dark wood, mixture of table heights and a really long cozy looking bar. There were some classic white table cloth tables and hightop wooden ones to balance out the look. The overall feel was upscale but comfortable. We were there on a Saturday around 7pm but the place was not 50% full. The hostess gave us our choice of outdoor seating. So far so good. Along comes the waiter...... We inquired about the flavor profile of some of the cocktails and he gave very vague answers. I asked if the Berry Blossom was a super sweet drink and he said not really. The drink came; it so cloyingly sweet that I asked him to bring me some limes to tone it down. He never offered to exchange it... On to the ordering food.... There was a soup du jour and a pasta du jour listed. He did not offer any explanation for either item...we had to ask him. We ordered one appetizer and two entrees. I kid you not...8 minutes later; both entrees arrived...we never saw the appetizer. The waiter delivered the entrees. We told him to cancel the appetizer. He apologized, then offered us a free dessert. The food was amazing. My husband had the pasta du jour (waiter said it was $22, check came and it was $25) but all was fantastic. I had the steak frites which were perfectly prepared and extremely flavorful. The kitchen is amazingly fast and good. Our waiter never asked if we wanted another cocktail or wine with our dinner. As we were preparing to leave; another table arrived. We heard that waiter describe all manner of dishes that were not on the menu.........I guess we just got a dud of a server. Hope they get it ironed out. Oops...almost forgot; though the patio was nice; the chairs are extremely uncomfortable and hard! Would we go back? Maybe. Would I recommend it. Yes; if you are in the area.

Dinner this evening was enjoyable because the nasty Belgian chef (aka "Grandpa") that hit on every female that moves has left this restaurant. He was disgusting. The restaurant was in chaos when he was working. The ambience has greatly improved.

Went to F&B after hearing a number of good reviews and found it to be good. A couple of things: Service is very good. The bartenders are friendly and creative with their specialty drink menu. The wait staff does a great job of keeping the pace of the meal moving, but they do not rush the evening. This is a nice and sometimes rare touch. Our party ordered mussels, a filet, sea bass and the rabbit. The seafood crowd were very pleased with their choices. The filet was good, but somewhat overwhelmed with a heavy sauce. Frankly it looked like a cheeseburger when it came out. The filet was cooked nicely, but the sauce was a distraction. The rabbit was OK with the cut of meat being very skimpy and hard to manage. It also came out later than the rest of the meal and it makes me wonder if something was amiss in the kitchen. It was a disappointing dish. However our party enjoyed the meal and we will give it another try before passing a final judgment

the venue is quite lovely and in keeping with the bistro theme. Overall the food was quite good. Two things would have made our visit perfect. The server was unfamiliar with the menu and unable to describe basic items (such as what was in the Thai sauce with the mussels). Also, we expected, and ordered, our seared tuna rare. It came out well done. And the fries accompanying the steak frite were cold. Both items were rectified promptly.

Perfection. The ambiance was top notch. The food was exquisite and authentic. The service was excellent. It truly was a perfect dining experience. Can’t wait to return.

They recently changed the menu and the kitchen took a step up with it. The salmon and shrimp risotto were very good. The service is generally very good as well. Comfortable atmosphere.

Check carefully your bank account if you pay with your credit card! We had the bad surprise to find our account debited for 213$ (Total amount for 6 people at the table) after approval for 80 (2 people + tip) But the worse surprise came, a few days later, when the restaurant owner said that it was a mistake and that it was up to the customer to check, because he has no way to find out that a table gets paid several times, and no way to see that there is a huge discrepancy between approved amount and amount actually credited on his account!

Fantastic lunch! We shared a charcuterie board to start - prosciutto, manchego and merguez served with cornichons, mustard, apricot spread and toast. It was a beautiful presentation and it was delicious. Two of us had the chicken paillard - it was served with nicely dressed arugula and perfect seasoning on the chicken. We also had the duck and the cheeseburger- both were throughly enjoyed. Everything was fresh and tasted great. We would definitely eat here again.

Brought my parents here to celebrate the purchase of my first home - service was excellent and my father loved all of the old music that they had playing. Ordered the Charcuterie Board as an appetizer - FABULOUS. I had the Braised Rabbit Leg for my entree and it was delicious. Also tried the lamb lollipops, caramelized brussel sprouts, and beef bourguignon - everyone enjoyed their food and the warm, cozy atmosphere!

had a lovely brunch at christmas time and the decorations were so lovely and the food was terrific as well.

Came here with Some work folks and the place was spot on. Great food, well cooked, nice staff, and very fresh seafood. Will come here again for sure.

Great lunch and dinner. Real French food has come to Georgia. The White Bean Soup is a must have. The dinner rolls are perfect. But the service is right on the button. Professional and attentive without being noticeable. A Wonderful experience.

This is a new restaurant in Atlanta, so we want it to try it out with a few friends. Even though the service was nice, and the food was tasty, it didn't came across as a French restaurant. We ordered smoked salmon flatbread with Swiss cheese, tomatoes and dill, the bread was soft and tasted like Naan bread, nothing special. Tagliatelle Pasta with lobster and lobster truffle sauce, this dish was very tasty, but it tasted like a Thai dish, it was a little spicy with flavors of lemon grass, kefir lime leaves and red Thai chili paste, no sign of truffle oil. The striped Bass with mushroom leek ragout was ok, needed some salt to bring it together. Hand Crafted Drinks are $12 a pop, they were delicious but we thought over priced. Overall we had a great time, but this is not a French restaurant. Still we will try it again in the future

The restaurant is located in a multi purpose building, housing offices, other restaurants and private, high end condominiums. The restaurant is nice and cozy, however, the night we were there, there were at least 75 people crammed into a small bar space making way too much noise. The food made up a little for the noise but it was still hard to have a quiet, relaxing dinner. The tuna tartare is excellent. The salads are also quite good. I ordered the steak and frites, skirt steak with a small salad and fries. I substituted wild mushrooms for the fries and it was delicious. One of my dinner companions ordered the hamburger and he said it was the best he's ever tasted. The prices are pretty moderate.

I had not been here but my wife had dined twice and enjoyed it. The restaurant is in an office tower and the parking is valet. Décor is modern and attractive with a large bar area, some outdoor seating abutting a busy street. The bar is lively and my wife reports the weekday crowd is well dressed, not so on the weekend. We made a reservation using Open Table and were promptly seated at a quiet table in the less busy section of the dining room. Our server was very solicitous and quickly took both a drink and food order. Wines by the glass are a generous pour and there are several grapes and choices within grape. My wife raved about the skate wing over a spinach potato mix and my grilled salmon over greens was a perfect medium but a very small serving I am guessing 3.5/4 oz. We finished with the Orange Almond Tuile served next to chocolate sauce with fresh whipped cream and it was a treat.

Very fresh ingredients, great favoring and wonderful presentation. Their bread is simply the best - perfect for dipping in the Mariniere sauce under the mussels. Must try their Skate Wings. The White Bean Soup is excellent. Owner Fabrice and his team are very friendly and attentive.

There are better choices for dinner. Very expensive compared to the quality if the dishes. Service was attentive, but not too concerned if you get my drift. This was the second visit for dinner and I will avoid in the future, however, the bar scene makes it a good launch point or finishing point.

Each time I have eaten here the staff is very friendly and helpful. The food at lunch and dinner is outstanding. An excellent restaurant for a business lunch or a date.

The Chef is Belgian and so am I. The food was incredible ... but you need to be a little bit adventurous to order foie gras, escargots or steak tartare. Really worth the experience. Of course you have also "American" food on the menu. It soooo tasted like home. Will definitely be back.

It's a fun place to be for happy hour or an early dinner. Great bar staff, super friendly hostess and food and beverages worthy of the "F&B" moniker. Definitely improving with time since it originally opened, and seems to be finding its groove now. One of my neighborhood favorites.

Reasonably priced French in a commercial/residential high-rise on corner of Peachtree and Peachtree-Dunwoody. Somewhat fish-centric (although I was disappointed in the absence of skate wing from the menu, especially since I had previewed the menu on-line and it appeared to be offered), a very nice wine list, also reasonably priced, and great cocktails. Interesting entertainment on the evening I was there, a Sammy Davis-style performer who worked the room with great enthusiasm and has a wonderful singing voice. Each of our entrees, halibut, trout, and an interesting tuna dish, were very good, and very fairly priced. As a bonus, the creamy onion soup that first wowed Atlantans at Brasserie le Coze, is as good as ever.

Really loved the food at this restaurant. It was elegant and the service was spectacular! I cannot wait to eat here when I come back to Atlanta.

Have had a great lunch here before, but this time the steak in the steak frites was just not to our liking. It was properly prepared, but the flavor not great. Also, our waiter could have been a little more attentive. Our salads, fries and crepe Suzette were all exceptional. It was just the star of the meal that failed us.

While many of us miss the original Brasserie Le Coze at Lenox, this replacement up the street is indeed much larger and offers valet parking at the door. Some original menu items remain including the white bean soup with truffle oil and skate wing.The food and service were good, the place is plenty noisy, and there is only one toilet for each gender, so expect possible waits for that.

white bean soup was pretty good. love it when Bacon is in a soup . everything we ordered was good. service was ok, a bit rushed at times. non existent others. Does take a bit too long to go here as valet was kinda slow. Would be back. I give it credit for not being a chain as those seem to be taking over the area and unique places seem harder to find

Never had a bad meal. One of my very favorite restaurants in Atlanta. Friendly and courteous service. Skate and mussels!

This spot has great rustic ambience, the staff is friendly, the bar drinks are so creative and delicious, and the food is authentic and DIVINE!

Great restaurant with wonderful food, beverages and service. You will really feel "in France", also because of the music playing at the place.

It'll never be as good as when it was Brassiere de la Coze and located in Lenox Mall next to Neiman Marcus, but it's still a nice place to dine. We had dinner there recently with another couple who dine there often. Coming early gives you a quieter restaurant. They have a new concept of small plates which is a good idea with some of the restaurants serving huge entrees. But these small plates were REALLY SMALL! I had the clamari and I left hungry. My husband had the trout and it was equally tiny. I guess we should have ordered the regular plates. Nice staff and good wine. We'll try it again.

The restaurant was empty on Saturday night, which as a bit disconcerting when we arrived for our reservation. Fortunately, the meal was surprisingly good and not at all a reflection of the empty tables. I believe they went through some changes and are in the process of rebuilding their client base. My girlfriend and I were very happy with our meals and will definitely go back. The beet salad and crab claw apps were delicious. The salmon and chilean sea bass entrees were also very tasty. The server was very accommodating to our special requests and service was attentive overall. Definitely give F&B a try if you're near Phipps or Lenox and looking for a good meal. Until it gains a larger audience, I'll gladly enjoy the peace and quiet it provides.

I really wanted to love this restaurant enough to make it one of my new go-to spots, since the location is great and the menu is always tempting. However, despite great service and awesome burgers, the other patrons put us off a little.... rude and trashy Buckhead Betties, who kept trying to hang their coats on the backs of OUR chairs at the bar before we went through to our table in the restaurant.

Wow, I loved this place. I tried the white bean soup with croutons, bacon and truffle oil drizzle ($8) and it was excellent. I also tried the Caesar salad and added seared salmon - the salmon was the best I've had. Crispy on the outside, moist and buttery on the inside. The Caesar itself lacked a little flavor but the long curls of parmesan made up for it. They also have an $11 lunch special - half a turkey sandwich with soup and salad. I'll be back to try the escargot.

Went with a few friends this week. The server was rude. He would ignore us or simply seem uninterested to come to our table. It was 8:30 pm and he told us he could leave as soon as we left. We decided not to keep him waiting and closed our tabs. We decided to switch to the bar and the new bartender lady was beyond rude. It seemed like we were imposing on them and they wanted us out. Overall terrible experience and the party of 7 felt very uncomfortable so we left!

Good food, great service and a good value. It was tricky getting in. You must go through the hotel but worth discovering

We have driven past F&B for while and thought to looked inviting but never stopped. Tonight we did and it was great ! The food has a french flare with a neighborhood feel. There was a broad range of food selection, from burgers to fish and steak, and they even customized for us a little. The wine and drinks selection was excellent . They also had a singer there crooning some Sinatra etc. A good choice and NO WAIT even though almost full.

The former owners of Brasserie Le Coze have done it again and brought back French to Buckhead. A modern take on the Right Bank Brasserie, the menu features fresh and local ingredients and creative selections that "wink" to the 4 star Chefs in Paris. A large bar area and a drinks menu that features unique and inspirational cocktails (not sure there is a cocktail list like this elsewhere in Atlanta) the bar also features a group of large bar height tables where you can eat, drink and socialize in an informal setting.. The restaurant decor is hip and innovative and the small space is intimate but not crowded or noisy.. a full length window into the kitchen helps draw a connection with the food, the freshness and the space. Service is very good and the owner's experience at the world famous Le Bernadin (NYC) is apparent.. attention to service and detail really enhance the dining experience. Then there is the bread and butter... No doubt the best warm bread in town! The menu items are creative and include modern takes on classics like skate wing and entecote steak and frites.. and the fish and chicken mains are delicious.. we have been going since the restaurant opened last year and they have already freshened the menu several times.. BTW: Love the beet salad! we have tried copying it at home.. yellow and red local beets with goat cheese arugula and candied pecans YUM.... Save room for the desserts especially the Le Coze signature volcano cake.. Bottom line.. it is our favorite place in town and we have eaten there on date night.. with other couples.. with our young children.. business dinners and lunches . and I have eaten there solo !.. Love it.

Twelve happy women enjoyed lunch there in September as part of our Lunch Bunch group. The food is authentically French and so delicious. There were mussels to chose from, salad nicoise, chicken liver salad, a great hamburger avec frites, and many other gems. Larger choices like Roasted Skate Wing and Vegetable Ash Gnocchi are also available. Service was great and I can't say enough about this place. Previous owner, sister of the owner of Le Bernadine in NY sold it, but the new owner and chef have kept up the quality of the food. Go, you'll like it.

I had lunch today with visiting author Susan Vreeland, and thought the meal was delightful. I had the Skate - enhanced with capers. Jemille Williams and I shared the entree - our waiter was very nice about bringing a second plate. It was exactly the right amount of food, because (of course!) we had to save room for the Bourbon Pecan Gelato. I could have drooled all over the table, it was so good.

Nice blend between casual and upscale - good modern take on french with some classics thrown in. Ambiance again more on the bright, open side - not quiet but not too loud either.

Food here is great! The petite plates are just wonderful. Had the duck, lobster crepes and beef. Bread was fresh and done well. Environment is subtle and excellent for a date night. Highly recommend the place and would go back.

My Saturday evening dinner was at F & B and the service was fast and accurate. The dishes were prepared well. I enjoyed the chicken entree while salmon and beef dishes were also served. F & B will run you about $35 for the evening if you have a cocktail with your entree. Not a stand out place but a nice dinner with friends.

We dined at F&B when it first opened and had not been back until the other night. Very nice decor and feel to the restaurant. The steamed mussels were top rate along with the warm baguette. Chicken dish was very good. Salmon dish was just OK. Upon departing we saw a tank with live lobsters. If we had know about the lobsters we would have ordered one.The server never told us about the lobsters.

Visited this trendy new restaurant with out of town family members. Was hesitant at first because of previous review regarding service, but had heard food was excellent. Both were! Very friendly, professional service. Good wine and cocktail list. Most of all food was fabulous. Can't wait to go again.
