Can not go wrong with classic French cuisine executed to perfection. It was FANTASTIC. Our waiter, Kevin, guided is through the wine list, steak offerings, appetizers & desserts. He was friendly while being formal in his white tux & controlled table-side cooking at 4 tables without missing a beat. Our escargot was delicious, we shared a chateaubriand that was flambéed table-side to a perfect medium rare & accompanied with an assortment of vegetables. Tried the cheese plate & it was great. Finished the dinner with our Saint-Emilion Bordeaux a decadent decadent chocolate mouse. The place is on the formal side, but the staff puts you at ease quickly, the Waiters & Chefs know what they are doing. FANTASTIC MEAL WELL WORTH THE PRICE

For the overall ambiance, attentive staff, & excellent food, this classic earns its five stars. The Orange Duck for two was outstanding!

A fabulous 1st meal during our visit. Definitely a classic. Caesar salad was made very well. The beef capriccio was excellent. The scallops were cooked to perfection. Just a minor comment on the chateaubriand. We ordered it medium rare; however, with the sauce prepared at the table side, it should of been order rare. The minor flaw was that the sauce was prepared at table side, our expectation was the steak should of also been final touched too at table side. That's the only reason I deducted one star. Service was excellent. Will return.

Very classic french dining. The food was superb & the waitstaff excellent. The were super accommodating which our daughter that has special needs & is a selective eater. We had a Cesar salad created table side & the beef tenderloin Continental flambé & my husband had the beef Wellington it was so very delicious. They also made one of the best French martinis I have ever had. We highly recommend Le Continental.

The setting is lovely & the ambiance of the restaurant is classic; however, the absence of any expectation re dress or attire, gives a faux quality, & it seems like a fast food atmosphere.
The service was quite good.

The beef was great.
The Dover Sole, however, was disappointing.
