Don't get me wrong the food was good, but it wasn't anything that had my raving for more. Great and fun experience being next to bowman field. It's almost an old timey feeling. Everything was cooked well. Service was fair but it seemed like everyone was kind of stiff, not really genuine.

My wife and I had an amazing time. We had the Cesar salad, sired scallops, sea bass, Crème brûlée, and house made coffee ice cream. Everything was out of this world! We are definitely returning very soon!

Very disappointing as we had a good experience two months earlier. Drinks were good, but the food was very poor. Wife's trout was similar to what one can buy in the frozen food aisle, over breaded, crispy fish stick, hard to distinguish it was fish at all. My rack of lamb was way underdone, bloody rare, despite requesting it be done medium. The overall presentation was just a mess. No, I didn't send it back as we had waited far too long for our food only to watch the kitchen server (not our primary waiter) walk through the restaurant (twice!), obviously confused as to what table the entrees were to be delivered. We finally had to shout at him to get him to deliver our food. The Caesar salad was very basic, the calamari was a big pile of indistinguishable fried coating. The soufflé was good. And as for the wait, the wandering waiter, it wasn't due to a large crowd. There were many open tables.

Enjoyed a date night here. Was very much looking forward to the soufflé! Unfortunately, it arrived completely deflated. Which is bizarre because the other soufflés ordered by surrounding tables were not so pathetic. I'm actually surprised that the attendant who was not our server, who brought it out to me, did not offer to make it again when I expressed my displeasure. Otherwise, my steak was cooked to my liking. The frites were delicious. My dates fish dish was good but lacked salt. The crab cake was the star of the evening; Would recommend it. Had a glass of wine. Had perused the menu online prior and was very much looking forward to an interesting glass of red, but alas, the wine menu no longer included it. Oh well. Parking is plentiful. The attire is dressy. Noise level is low. I would go back but please use more seasoning on your fish and don't let the soufflé fall in the kitchen!

Disappointing-from the moment we walked in the gentleman that seated us seemed confused, but this was a special night so we looked past it. The atmosphere with the live jazz was amazing. Our cocktails and appetizers were very good, but then everything changed. One of the four meals was ice cold and it was the salmon special (no apology, for this person getting their meal when the rest of us almost finished). Then we ordered dessert with cappuccino. We had to send back all three cappuccinos due to being barely warm. When they were returned to us the same gentleman that had seated us had part his thumb inside one of the cups! Not wanting to ruin a special moment we were having at the table no one said anything, but all clearly saw what had just happened. Our waiter Jarred was kind and professional, live jazz music very good other than this I would not recommend and will not be going back. Sad because this use to be an amazing restaurant.
We enjoyed our dinner. The food was very good once we got it--seemed maybe short staffed in the kitchen. Excellent waiter. An intimate, 1940s art-deco interior reminds guests of the Café from the movie “Casablanca”. We flew in, parked conveniently at the door. Wonderful adventure.

Great service. Delicious food. Well worth the money. Definitely a must try! The view is also super cool!
Le Relais is someplace we had always wanted to try so we decided to visit on Valentines Day. My husband had a red wine, and the filet while I had the lamb. Both were good but missing that extra umph to put them over the top. The dessert was also just decent. My cocktails were quite good with vintage vibes.
Customers always right
The atmosphere was weird and it was super stuffy inside! The air vents had dust and mold on them! Oh, don't let me forget in each corner there was decorations as well.... Spider ? webs ?!!! The food was disgusting and the host or manager on duty was rude due to me not liking my meal!! I would not recommend or ever visit again!

Took my wife out for an early valentines day dinner. We had not been to Le Relais before. We are really impressed overall. We made a reservation. We ordered wine and entrees and split an ice cream. My wife got the sea bass and it was SO good! My wife doesn't even like fish and she raved about it. I got the NY Strip and it was really good as well. Our waitress was attentive but not overly so. They had live jazz on Sunday night and it was really nice to parlay with the cool atmosphere. Would definitely recommend checking this out for a very nice evening out.

Been going to this restaurant well over 15 years and it never disappoints. Food is superb! Service impeccable. Anthony, the owner, and his wife never sit down. They make sure you are well attended to. Such a treat to eat here ! It's an experience not just a meal. Highly

Always perfection. Not our informal go to restaurant, but when looking for that special place, it's le Relais. The addition of soft jazz on Sunday evening is also a draw for us.
Great food and service
