Last night for our anniversary, we went to a wonderful restaurant near us that we haven’t been to in a few years. Why did we go? Firstly it’s a wonderful French restaurant that we wanted to go back to for a special dinner, and the reason why I felt safe enough to go during this pandemic and I’m in a very high risk category, is because they assured me that they not only are following all CDC guidelines but they are also taking it up a notch which included disposable menus and waiting until the guests arrive before they set the tables up. Between adhering to the details, impeccable personal service, and as usual the wonderful food both in quality and taste…LeChene did not disappoint! We also enjoyed the accompaniment of the frogs croaking throughout our dinner which actually convinced Brad not to order frogs legs!
For an anniversary dessert, they brought us a slice of tiramisu and we had already put in our order at the time that we ordered dinner for our special dessert: A Grand Marnier soufflé.

First time at Le Chêne despite knowing about it for many years. For our 25th Anniversary, we treated ourselves to a delicious meal. An extensive, authentically French menu was presented on a chalk board instead of typical paper faire.

Had the Filet Mignon Au Poivre wish came with Potatoes Au Gratin and Zucchini. It was very good, perfectly cooked and the sauce was savory. Wife had an appetizer for dinner, Lobster Ravioli, which was a generous portion, and she enjoyed very much. Ordered the Chocolate Souffle early and it was beautiful and excellent, served with chocolate sauce on the side. The house further spoiled us with a White Chocolate Mousse Wedge. What a treat! Never had that before.

Naturally, a place like this it's not a budget conscious restaurant. But I can say it was worth every penny. The food was excellent.

Now for the service. We were somewhat disappointed that they had a very young waiter that wasn't familiar with the wine list and able to provide any guidance. Not that we couldn't decide on a bottle ourselves, however it's always a plus to have either a knowledgeable server or somm to get the best pairings. Other than that and maybe a little more attention to empty water glasses, he was great. Perhaps it was because we went on a not so busy Tuesday.

The ambiance is average. I'm not sure that I'd call it romantic, especially if it was uber busy.

Recommended, but for the food, mostly.

Melissa H. Brown

01:43 01 Jul 18

The filet mignon was perfectly medium rare, one of the best I’ve ever eaten. Chocolate soufflé for dessert was heaven-the best! However, lose the soft shelled crab appetizer. Wine selection was wonderful! And a adore our server, so cute.

Jenna Rose Smith

23:05 14 May 18

Delicious! And the waiter didn't even seem annoyed at my dietary restrictions which I know are REALLY annoying. He recommended something that was delicious, and provided great service on a very busy Mother's Day. Thank you!

Amelia Privett

22:35 14 May 18

Wonderful Mother’s Day brunch. We arrived before our reservations and were still seated. Food came out quickly and out drinks were always topped off. Food is always unique and delicious. I can’t complain, just wish I could eat here every week.

Childhood memory, My Dad took me here for my Birthday I believe the year was 1984. I never forgot that dinner. I had Lobster Fricassee in a cream sauce on a bed of carrot noodles. Good memory amazing food.

Claudia Ponce

00:40 03 Apr 18

I highly recommend this excellent restaurant! It truly is a hidden gem. Wonderful staff, delicious cuisine, generous portions, reasonable prices, and it’s very romantic. You can dine in, or out, walk the grounds with your drink and they have a full bar. Thumbs up, absolutely love it!

Hello from Coruce Vineyards and Winery. Juan and Claudia, We just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed eating Thanksgiving there. The food was great, the Christini cocktail was refreshing, and the Beaujolais Nouveau was fun to drink. Our server, Rachelle ,was perfect and the bussing staff were impeccable. We also appreciate the fact that we were seated IMMEDIATELY even though we were a half hour late for our reservation. (I had the times confused!) Just generally a pleasant experience.

Sheri Schifter Banyar

Generally the food and service are excellent, but a bit overpriced and the chairs are very uncomfortable. I also had to send back the lobster with mushroom sauce on my last visit, it was not up to par.

Started going to LeChene in 1989. Got married there in 2000. Always enjoyed the Escargot, SOUP, and Filet w/Roquefort. I am older now and just can't eat like that anymore. Would LOVE to be 25 again. Always recommend LeChene to folks who have not been there. Thanks Juan and Michelle!!

Debbie Davis

05:30 28 Oct 17

The food, the ambiance, and the service were exceptional! Our meal started with escargot (to die for), next came cream of tomato soup (to die for), then melt-in-your-mouth Lamb Al’ail for me and seafood pasta for my husband (to die for), and finally a Grand Marnier soufflé (ooh la la)! For those of you that are in So Cal, this is a wonderful destination spot to go for a special dinner or Sunday brunch. We first came here about 28 years ago — loved it then and love it now. Top notch food and top notch service!

I was a neighbor and frequent patron of Le Chene until I moved out of the area. Le Chene was my go to spot for everything from intimate dining, gatherings with family & friends to meetings and parties, including my anniversary shindig. It has been 25 years, and I am happy to say that Le Chene is as good as I remember it.

One of my favorites is still the French Onion Soup! And anything with Bearnaise Sauce...lol! Always a plethora of choices for any palette. Le Chene is worth the drive. Try it, you will like it!
