We have been dining at Cafe Martinique for the past 10+ years as it was the premium restaurant in Nassau. Tonight was extremely disappointing. The cocktail bar is utterly disassociated from the restaurant with no service concept. The pianist, was cold and made no attempt to connect with her audience. She played loudly, without consideration for where she was. As a couple we normally spend three to four hundred dollars but left after a bill of sixty five dollar bill for starters. Premium prices, McDonald’s service and Wendy’s pride and appearance. Our money is better spent elsewhere from now on.
We read the reviews and were expecting a nice meal. We definitely didn’t get that. When we we’re waiting to be seated, a family left and didn’t look happy. The the hostess took us to our table. After we sat down, we noticed that there weren’t any napkins and the utensils had been moved around. There were also two menus at the table. We questioned it but brushed it off after they bright new napkins and utensils. After we made our selections and put the menus aside to one side of the table, the waiter kept passing our table and didn’t pay us any attention. After we flagged him down and told him that we were ready to order, he said that he thought we were waiting for another person. We all cut down our order because we already talked about eating small and getting pizza afterwards. We placed our order and then realized that all the other tables had plates and place settings. Did we get a recycled table??? We think we did. It was too late to turn back. First of all, the order was wrong. We asked for 2 French onion soups, two orders of ravioli, and one order of French mashed potatoes. We didn’t receive one of the soups. Our food was devoid of taste. There were probably 8 very small pieces of ravioli and it wasn’t very good. The French onion soup didn’t have any cheese. To top it off, one of the soups had onion skins in it. The soup, too, didn’t have much taste to it. Additionally, the butter that was served with the bread, before the entrees arrived, was really hard. It’s like it was pulled straight out of the refrigerator without letting it thaw. The best part of the meal was the wine, and we didn’t get the good stuff. I don’t see us ever going back.
The food was delicious. The staff is friendly, professional and attentive without being over bearing. The service was well paced. Lost a star because my lamb while well seasoned was bit undercooked in the center. The mashed potatoes was SOOO salty that there were inedible. The soufflé 's was delicious and heavenly. I would love to see more Caribbean flavors in the menu.
I was so looking forward to eating here. I love french food. What a disappointment. First let me say the service was great and ambience was nice. The food not good. I don't even know how to describe onion soup. Burnt broth with stale cracker in middle. All over fried fish. Profiterole was ice cream sandwich with chocolate sauce on top. Really? Did not know what French Press coffee was. Lot's of money for nothing. Soo disappointing. Unless change of chef avoid.
Meeting friends and colleagues there for dinner was perfect. Lovely ambience made for easy conversation. Great service, superb food extremely well prepared, just stunning meal made for a superb night
