    Thank you to everyone for a great dinner alfresco tonight. Everything was perfect as always. All of the seafood and pasta made us feel as if we enjoyed a private chef. Thanks to the entire team from the valet to the servers to back of house and the kitchen. Thank you to the arrival team for a warm reception and for providing us with a wonderful table.

    Had a lovely dinner tonight. Service was spot on and seamless. Food came in a timely manner. Our party ordered the special red snapper, the pork chop, hanger steak and ravioli everything was good. Salad was very fresh. Desserts were amazing. Chocolate soufflé and lemon pana cotta remarkable. Looking forward to going again when it’s not so hot outside and we can enjoy the waterside outdoor seating.

    We have been many times over a number of years. Every other time we really enjoyed our experience. This time the menu seemed very limited, and the service was good to begin with, but was non-existent at the end. In the beginning it seemed like they wanted to rush us out there and then there was no service. Very odd.

    Food is always excellent and reliable. Lobster mosaic & tuna tartare were highlights for us. Excellent steak and tasty seafood dishes. Great wine list. Friendly and very good service by everyone on the team. Nice views from the outdoor terrace and bar. Very lively and fun indoor bar with live music. Love this place!

    L'Escale remains one of our family favorite destinations for a reason. Their outdoor covered porch is charming, with great water views. The food and service are always impeccable and inventive. Our waiter proved to be of great service in making perfect recommendations, all of which lived up to his descriptions. For any and every special occasion, including just being with those you love, choose L'Escale- you will be glad that you did.
