| - Just got back from a girls night at L'Gros Luxe and what a disappointment the whole experience was!
We walked in around 6pm this Friday and were surprised to see that the place was pretty empty. We were seated at a high table and given menus.
We decided on a bottle of Rose wine to share, and so we were disappointed when we were told that they hadn't carried that bottle for 3 weeks. We then asked for another bottle - got a similar response. Then we asked for sliders and the watermelon salad. Neither was available either! By this point, we were pretty irritated. When we asked to taste a specific bottle of wine before ordering, we were told we couldn't. I mentioned that even high end restaurants give you a little sip of the wine to make sure it's to your taste before committing, and our server quickly tapped me on the shoulder and said "ok" as if to indicate that I had convinced her.
We ended up with a bottle of white, the tater tot poutine, fried pickles, sweet potato fries, and the burrito bowl. The food was fine apart from the fact that despite asking for the spicy sauce that comes in the burrito bowl to come on the side, it was mixed into the bowl....overall, we left pretty unhappy except for the fact that we paid less than $30 per person. Service was sparse and lacking, and the restaurant was missing many items from the menu for it to be more than a coincidence. Will not be back and cannot recommend.
