| - I have to start by saying that I have never received restaurant service like this before in my life. From the minute we walked in to L'Albatros, we were provided with genuine, attentive, quality service from a host of staff throughout the night, each doing his or her job to make our dining experience seamless. We were seated in the patio and were promptly given some nice chewy baguette. After mulling for a while over the tantalizing menu, we chose the escargot in garlic and fennel butter, the cold watermelon beet soup, the hanger steak and frites, and the duck confit. The escargot was very flavorsome (though could've been a bit more garlicky), and my hanger steak was wonderfully tender. Our lovely waitress recommended the honey-almond cake for dessert, but we found it to be a bit dry and skimpy on the cream and berries. So we told our waitress, and she promptly brought us a new one. Great service, food, and experience. I'll be back.
