Guest Stories: Shirley Brasserie Raves

Ambience was good just one thing after having three drinks you have to use the ladies room. The only thing that bothered me was the lady cleaning the restroom knocked on the door and asked me to change restrooms so she could mop the one I was in. I asked her when I got out you wanted me to change bathroom stalls so you can mop she said yes, because I need to mop that one after that, my mood was ruined, and I will never come back here again. I just found that really bizarre for her to ask me that and the girls that get it they get it

Highlight of the evening was the drinks - good cocktails, good wines by the glass at not crazy prices. Lackadaisical service, though, and meh food. Escargots were prepared in a manner unlike anything I've ever had. "Crudo" was ceviche. Beef tartare for my daughter was prepared tableside but arrived well after I got - and started eating - my steak frites. There are other better places to go for French bistro food.

Salle agréable, mais l’expérience ne suit pas : nous n’avons pas vu notre serveur de la soirée et, aux rares passages d’un membre de l’équipe, l’attitude restait indifférente. L’eau a été servie une seule fois et nos verres n’ont jamais été re-remplis. Côté assiette, les portions sont modestes, les goûts peu marquants et l’addition n’est pas justifiée. L’ambiance est correcte, mais elle ne compense pas le manque de suivi et la faiblesse du rapport qualité-prix. Dommage.

Pros: Delicious branzino, beautiful atmosphere Cons: Heavily breaded escargot, poor service
