We arrived and they were busy, but made time and space for us. They even had a plate of fruit, meat, and cheese for our baby waiting at the table for us. The staff treated us well, and were very engaging. The atmosphere was relaxing and fun, and the food was top tier excellent. After we finished eating, the owner talked with us a bit, and was very kind and outgoing. Our experience was wonderfu

The menu has many very good sounding choices that make it difficult to choose. I started off with their famous French onion soup. I thought it was very good but not great or the best I've ever had. I followed it up with the house specialty, an assortment of shell fish over pasta in a nice broth with garlic bread. I thought the broth

We thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere and decorations as well. I highly recommend this restaurant, and we will definitely return for another meal. Thank you! **Kid-friendliness:** My kids loved the complimentary bread (especially the butter served on a seashell—it amazed us all!). Several appetizers and entree options were kid-friendly, particularly for seafood lovers. The various interesting art pieces on the walls and overall decor entertained the kids (it turned into a fun game of "I spy"). The server and staff were friendly and acknowledged the kids, providing the necessary accommodations. Little things like the plastic water cups made a lasting impression. There was plenty of parking, including several handicap spaces.

I find that many restaurants fall short of expectations, but Bacquets stands out as exceptional! The food, service, and atmosphere are all superb! We started with Steak Tartare as an appetizer, followed by Veal Piccata (a delightful recommendation not on the menu), and the duck (canard). For dessert, we indulged in Croissant Bread Pudding. Every dish was delicious and cooked to perfection! We loved exploring their wine library, and the live jazz music added a wonderful ambiance to our dining experience. Thank you for such a fantastic evening!

We are expecting our second child this fall and wanted to have one of our last dinners out as a family of three somewhere nice. We were blown away, and it 's been a long time since either myself or my husband have felt that way about a restaurant delicious food, great service, and such a pleasant, inviting atmosphere. This is a classy place, but manages not to come off as stiff or pretentious. Another thing all staff were nothing but kind to my 2 year old daughter. She has had a lot of experience in public social situations, but is still a little kid, of course. Bacquet 's is not kid friendly in the sense of having a kids ' menu or providing crayons to your table, but if you want to expose a well behaved, adventurous eater to a nice dining experience, you will be welcomed. My parents are European and this is how I grew up! Thank you for being lovely and respectful to my whole family.

Our server Kimberly told us they have live music on Tuesday and Thursday! They also serve Prime Rib on Thursday. It was really a fun place to dine.

Our waitress Kim was very knowledgeable about the menu which changes daily depending on what 's fresh. She guided us to the wine library where Chef Franck himself helped us to pick the perfect bottle of wine to compliment our chosen dishes. We started with the Seafood Flat Bread as our appetizer course and it was excellent. I had the Lamb and my mother had the Veal. Both were perfectly prepared and delicious. We finished with a shared chocolate mousse that was light as air and some espresso. It was a perfect meal and we 'll be back again 4SURE.
