We took my mother in-law out for supper from her seniors residence, & we were not disappointed. Excellent service from the moment we walked in the door to the moment we left. & the food was just as good as the service , huge portions at decent prices . Server was constantly checking on water & refilling as needed , brought extra napkins without us even asking . We were able to bring our own wine . Great job by the staff at Le Vieux Duluth, we will be back.
There was a time that I thought the restaurant chain was a cheap imitation of Souvlaki'Joints' that we typically avoided when wanting to dine out. No Longer. The locations are bright & airy. It helps when there is no smoking any more inside a dining establishment. The menu's offer a really wide choice of dishes to choose from & not only Souvlaki. The staff are all pleasant & efficient & help each other at all the tables. Our waiter was able to quickly answer the questions that were asked & minor changes to the main courses we ordered were not an issue. We started with a calamari dish to share while the mains were being prepared & we all commented that it was some of the tastiest & freshest we had ever enjoyed. Not a single piece was'Rubbery' that required heavy chewing. All our mains from the Chicken Au Grilloir - Shrimp - Souvlaki & Hamburger Steak were well prepared. The sides of salad & rice as accompaniments are ample. None of us complained we didn't have enough to eat & with these dishes priced between $19.95 - $24.95 the value is there.
Perfect, perfect, perfect what a wonderful evening we had!To be exact we had a party of 10 on Saturday night. Our wonderful waiter Bobby tended to our needs from when we stepped foot inside until the second we stepped out. The pikilia entre & calamari to start was delicious! I ordered the chicken brochette it was to die for. One of the most juiciest brochette I've tasted in a long time. The prices are affordable & service was on point we will definitely be returning & booking more parties as the ambiance & service was just perfect! Would highly recommended coming to eat here.
Kind of basic for what it is. The menu was written down on our place mats & the decor looked straight out of a hotel. For that kind of atmosphere, I wouldn't expect the prices to be so high. The food was just ok.
I believe this was my first visit to Au Vieux Duluth, even though I lived here for some time. We went for a special occasion & it went very smoothly. I specifically loved the waiter, who was quite funny in his no nonsense approach. The food was ok, I would say that for the price though, it is excellent. You cannot really find much at this price point, notably as the serving sizes are fairly big, so bring a container to take the leftovers to go (& bring your own wine as well). The parking lot is kind of a mess though, the layout & the maintenance level. It also did not get too loud so we were able to talk easily amongst ourselves.
Food was just fine (only if you're very hungry). Calamari is just okay, nothing special, overcooked pork souvlaki, overcooked rice cooked with to much water, soggy salad which I think was sitting on its dressing for too long, bland potatoes, chicken strips for kids meal was dry. Regarding service, the place was half full, mean busy, there's only 1 waiter, 1 receptionist which help with the food & 1 who always fill-up water (He's nice though an always keeps refilling cold water). So this means that they're always on a rush. People kept coming in, Waiter never asks us for a drink if we need one, the kids meal on the menu says it includes a drink & an ice cream, waiter never give us anyhing or even asks us that it comes with it. So meaning, the price that we paid ($139 + tip) I think, in my opiniin, is not worth it. Food is not bad but not good either, we will never come back. Luckily we are very hungry that we ate everything, we paid for it anyway, we don't want to waste food. Casa Greque nearby was 10 times better but sadly it's already closed. Butterflied shrimps & bread & butter was good though.
