I cannot speak to the quality of this restaurant as it was closed for renovations when we arrived for our reserved meal.

After reading the reviews, I made a reservation at L'Esperance for a midweek get-together with a friend I rarely see. When we arrived, we found the restaurant completely closed! Why were we able to book a reservation if they were closed? This was very disappointing, especially since both of us had to go out of our way for no reason.

After enjoying a Sunday lunch at L'Esperance a few weeks ago, we decided to come back and try out the evening menu. The atmosphere, service, and food were fantastic. Needless to say, we will definitely be making another reservation!
