  • My boyfriend made reservations a month in advance for Valentine's Day weekend at Didier. I was so excited and surprised as I had been hinting that I wanted to try this place for months and raved about how many good things I heard about it. I wanted to love it but our experience there was not nearly at the level I would expect. The service was appalling. As someone who served for 7 years I couldn't believe that it took 15 minutes to be properly greeted only after I flagged someone down. The tables around us were serviced several times within that period. No one apologized for any delay or over-looking us. Once we were greeted the maitre'd was passive aggressive not only toward us but to the staff, right in front of us! She was showing the server how to place the napkins on our lap but while making a mockery of it. It was awkward and uncomfortable for my boyfriend and I. I felt embarrassed for our server. Sub-par service does not bother me if the food makes up for it but this was not the case for us. We ordered the terrine appetizer which I felt was lacking in flavour however the portion was a good size to share. I also expected terrine to be served with crostini and it was not. For mains, my boyfriend ordered the duck confit with a side of veg which turned out to be bok choy. The duck was delicious and exquisitely prepared however the portion was was small comparing to a lunch portion of duck confit. I ordered the saffron risotto with shrimp. The risotto and shrimp were perfectly cooked but unfortunately the salt level prevented me from eating more than half of my dish. The side salad I ordered never arrived and we were not attended to once during our meal. The maitre'd informed us to order dessert along with our appetizer and mains because it can take some time to prepare. Souffle takes time to prepare and yes it is a good idea to order that well in advance but the other items do not need to be ordered well ahead of time. That bothered me tremendously for some reason. For dessert we ordered a creme brulee and tarte tatin. The tarte was the best memory of our meal arriving semi-warm. The creme brulee was average. Good, but very average. I love French food and I am very sad to say we had a bad experience. It seems from the other reviews that patrons either found their experience amazing or awful. I will keep searching for an amazing French restaurant where I can get my fix.
