What User doesn't like about The Optimist:
L'Optimiste is a nice and fancy restaurant. Overall the food is good, not exceptional. We had appetizers and oysters and there were perfects. The fishes were well cooked but the portions are very small, and there is no side included. However, we were very disappointed by the desserts, which are too sweets and not really tasty.

I don't, but we both loved our food. we had an appetizer from kewit... View all feedback.
