We had brunch here and it was good. The cocktails were well made. Good selection of raw oysters. The burger and steak we ordered were cooked perfectly. I was disappointed with the chocolate croissant I had. The sticky bun was good. Our server Melony was absolutely outstanding.

Location, decor, staff, food, drinks, all were fantastic! The escargot was the best I’ve ever had. Also appreciated the spirit-free cocktail options on the menu. After our meal we went down to the hidden bar downstairs, so fun! All around a great experience.

We came here for brunch the day after our wedding and WOW, did the staff make us feel special! They decorated the table, took a polaroid of us, and gave us a list of ten pieces of advice collected from married couples in the restaurant. It was so special, and the food was great as well. I had an amazing burger and the home fries were top notch. I can’t wait to come back!

Excellent service and experience. My wife and I celebrated our first anniversary here, and our experience was sublime. The GM Tanya and our server Ashley really elevated our experience with what can only be called a master class in hospitality.

We stumbled upon this place by accident. We enjoyed a few drinks and then came back for dinner! The chef, Jared, was amazing and came out to interact with us on a couple occasions. Great service, food and drinks. I couldn’t recommend this place enough!

We absolutely loved eating at Brasserie La Banque before and for our rehearsal dinner! Our first meal was absolutely delicious with a great view of the kitchen. Our Rehearsal Dinner was for about 50 on the second floor with a stunning room, bar, food, and service! The entire team did an incredible job in working with us and our wedding planner, Fox Events. Will certainly be back for a meal and to host another event!

We went for my birthday, The «steak frites» was sublime, the trout too with a squash side. It was refined, really fine and tasty. The brioche too. O recommend greatly.

Had brunch at Brasserie La Banque yesterday and it was great! We had the omelet and added crab. It was served with crispy potatoes and a green salad. We also had an espresso martini which was great! We sat at the bar and could see everything that was going on in the kitchen. Great place!

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful dining experience at Brasserie La Banque. The restaurant is located in a circa 1700 building which adds to the charm and ambiance. We started our evening in the Bar Vaute a small intimate bar located below the restaurant. They offer a variety of interesting cocktails. After our drink we went upstairs and were promptly greeted and seated. Our server Ashley provided excellent service . We ordered a very reasonably priced bottle of Gamay . We began dinner by sharing the steak tartare which was excellent. We then shared a delicious beet salad before moving on to the main event. I enjoyed the duck confit while my wife had the special trout. We topped off the evening with a luscious dessert. The restaurant director Chris came by several times to assure we were happy!

Wonderful experience here! We are local and it has been hard to find restaurants where you truly feel like you get your money’s worth, but La Banque does a phenomenal job. It was my husband’s birthday and they made it so special! The atmosphere, food, and service were all exceptional. I had the mussels and frites and he had the duck cassoulet (highly recommend both!) Nick and Melanie were our servers and they really went above and beyond. For dessert they brought my husband their 30 layer crêpe cake, crêpes just so happen to be his favorite. We will definitely be back here!
