The Staff was wonderful, attentive, & knowledgeable of their menu. The food was delicious. It is a small restaurant & we just walked in. I would recommend reservations. It could fill up very fast. Truely a great meal.
We enjoyed it so much we went back. The food was just as amazing.

This restaurant is a hidden gem that deserves more attention. The menu is creative & offers a nice balance of classic techniques with modern twists. I was particularly impressed by the dessert selection which was not overly sweet & felt very refined. The prices are fair considering the quality of the ingredients & the level of service provided. Highly recommended for food lovers.

It was a great experience dining at restaurant le carré. Scallop dish was good, but not top. On the other hand, we loved their duck pasta. Hearty but not too heavy/oily for the stomach. At the end, we asked Jean-François for a recommendation for a small dish to finish off our meal. He recommended the brussel sprouts dish garnished with cumin & pear sauce, which we loved. It was the perfect light ending for our meal that did not overwhelm us. Oh & JF also made our drink (passion carré) which was the right amount of sweet & sour. Thank you for the amazing experience!

Whiskey old fashioned surprised me & it was pretty good. Small restaurant with excellent food , I would recommend a reservation. Not plenty of sitting area so book that table ahead of the game. Excellent service as well with friendly staff.

Visited in the summer of 2025, had an amazing meal. Even the starter bread & butter was such a good combination. Highlight's from the main included the duck confit pasta, the sauce was rich & lots of depth to the dish. Dessert was a dish that included ice cream & it was flat out best vanilla ice cream ever, so dense & smooth tasting. Overall, highly recommend!

Since Le Carre is attached to a hotel, I expected a corporate style restaurant, but was pleasantly surprised to see they arent afraid to serve good food with an interesting twist.

The calamari & salad were solid starters, & the pea & leek soup was fantastic. The sea bass was quite impressive with a lot of sour notes-almost too much but I appreciate the unique flavor. They nicely split the octopus for us. The streak was tender & I highly recommend the duck pasta.

Desserts were nicely plated & garnished: I wasnt sure what to expect with the brownie but it was rather crispy & elegantly plated. The creme brulee was nice & thin & came out flaming.

Service was good throughout the night, & the interior is small but elegant.

This place really surprised us. The menu seemed very mundane but what you were given was high quality ingredients cooked very well.

Started with the brussel sprouts & calamari. The brussel sprouts were cooked to perfection with poached pears with the natural flavor coming out in each bite. The calamari was some of the most crispy bites we've ever had.

Our mains included seafood risotto, lamb shoulder, hanger steak & cod fish & chips. Lamb shoulder hands down the best of the bunch. Tender moist & delicious flavor. Seafood risotto was full of textures & flavor. Fish & chips had a wonderful slaw topped with caviar. Hanger steak was cooked to perfection medium rare with a wonderful char. Flavors were all seasoned & exquisite without being over powered.

Dessert included a lemon pie & cream brûlée. Lemon pie was very different a worth a try & the crème brûlée was probably the most plain but presentation was gorgeous.

We recommend reservations as seats were limited & we lucked out getting a seat. Service was spot on & attentive. Definitely recommend this place.
