About

La Prunelle emphasizes a market-driven approach to French cuisine that highlights the technical precision required for high-quality preparation. The menu centers on raw meat delicacies, featuring a diverse selection of tartares that serve as the focal point of the culinary program. Ingredients undergo minimal processing to preserve their natural flavor profiles while maintaining the core characteristics of traditional regional cooking. The kitchen operations prioritize consistency through a rotating roster of seasonal offerings derived from available local produce. Each composition balances textural contrasts against bold seasoning choices, ensuring every plate delivers a direct expression of the primary component. This commitment to focused preparation techniques results in a streamlined experience that avoids unnecessary complexity while maintaining rigorous standards for freshness and ingredient integrity across the entire menu.

Hidden gem in a nice location in the plateau. One of the few places you can find ris de veau.

Les ris de veaux étaient succulents par contre servis avec seulement une purée de légumes & obligé de payer pour du pain. Me semble un peu exagéré.

Tout d'abord, nous avons eu notre assiette après 45 minutes d'attente. Les portions sont extrêmement minimes, on aurait dit une entrée. Nous avons pris les grudis de feta, les ris de veau & la pièce du boucher (onglet). le problème majeur de ces plats, ce sont les accompagnements, quasi inexistants, que des sauces, pas de texture. De plus, le pain est en supplément! Quatre tranches de pain grillé pour 4$. Au niveau de l'ambiance, les tables sont les unes sur les autres. La nôtre était adossée a la réceptionniste, qui se tenait debout dans notre dos.
A noter que le menu est beaucoup trop limité: 4 choix. Je ne comprends d'autant moins le temps d'attente...
Nous n'y retournerons plus.

The dining room is a perfect space, with the windows open allowing the summer breezes coming down from the mountain down Duluth. We were enjoying the evening from the first moment.
We saw reviews saying the salmon tartare was bland but it wasn't. The ris de veau was crispy & delicious. We also had the octopus & a creme brulee. We've been here time & time again. The point of this place is to enjoy yourselves in a classic but casual dining room, & if you can't do that at a BYOW place nothing will satisfy you. The couple who run it do their best to give a great experience. Roll with it & you'll have a great time.

I organized a dinner with a large group of 20 people. Most of the guests enjoyed the place, the service & the food.
The top dishes were magret de canard, ris de veau (excellent). The mushroom appetizer was also excellent.
The creme brulee with berries as also great.
The team did a great job at serving everyone at the same time.
I definitely recommend this restaurant. It's great at a very reasonable price. & you can bring your own wine.
