Review Summary

Le Gourmand is described as a cozy rustic old world spot tucked in a small stone building with a fireplace and a welcoming terrace, where the ambiance is consistently praised for warmth and elegance and the service is often noted as attentive and professional, though the terrace can be quite noisy from passing planes. The menu earns high marks for flavor and thoughtful presentation, with standout dishes including veal scallopini with mushrooms, duck breast and confit duck leg, cod in saffron sauce, seafood gratin, venison, and even a celebrated lobster roll, while desserts like profiteroles and creme brulee are frequently highlighted as memorable. Some visits feel the food is worth the price and the experience upscale and refined, yet several reviews flag value concerns, uneven portions, or over salted dishes and question whether the cost aligns with the quality. Service is sometimes described as flawless and attentive, and other times as inconsistent or slow, with occasional mentions of a missing hostess or a rude waiter. Outdoor dining on the terrace is enjoyed by many, though the outdoor ambience is affected by aircraft noise and, in nicer weather, mosquitos. Overall, Le Gourmand remains a cherished, frequently recommended destination for a special meal, with many guests recalling impressive meals and a refined atmosphere, while a few outings remind that experiences can vary.

The food was perfection on a plate. At our table, there was the Elk entree, Duck, Cajun Shrimp, Crab Cakes, Gnocchi & a basic salad & Onion soup.

I didn't love the crab cakes, they tasted like tuna salad to me (makes no sense, I know!) in any case, I wouldn't get them again.

Gotta say I've always heard of this place but never went. Now I'm kicking myself I haven't. Food was amazing, they had some of the best oysters I've ever had & the portion size on the braised meat is massive enough for 2 people! I'll be coming back asap!

I haven't been here in 30 years & it was as good as the last time. It's a cozy small stone house with a fireplace & some bright coloured paintings. We had veal scallopini with mushrooms that came with cheesy potatoes & the cod in a saffron sauce. Both were delicious. We had a wonderful profiterol for dessert. Even the coffee was super. I had a really good decaf cappuccino! So we'll be back for sure.

Ordered the duck breast & confit duck leg-both were perfectly cooked & delicious. The seafood gratin was comforting & flavorful, with fresh shrimp & scallops. Finished off with the classic crème brûlée-cracking through the caramelized top & tasting that creamy custard was pure bliss. Highly recommend!

Do yourself a favour & go to Lou's
If anyone from the restaurant is reading this. Your'crab cakes' were the worst thing I ate in 2025. I've had better frozen fish sticks. Your filet mignon wasn't far behind. Truly pathetic

Jet planes landing on top of tiny rooms where noise is unbearable, food portions ridiculous, servers not very friendly, excessively expensive for nothing really that special. Not a place for romantic dinner for sure!

All around very nice place & fine tasting food. The steak filet was very good, with good sides of mashed potato with veggies. Duck was fantastic & the cod fish was nice. Cheesecake was very simple.

For a restaurant of this price point, I found the service & guest experience quite mediocre. Let me list you a few reasons why:

1) There was no hostess or anyone greeting us at the door. I was waiting there for 5 minutes until I had to wave down a server & ask if where I was standing was in fact the hostess stand.

2) The table d'hôte menu did list enough information regarding the choices. The server was left having to explain & present too much information that left the guest forgetting what was presented. The presentation of missing table d'hote information took approximately 2 whole minutes.

3) When asked if we'd like anything to drink, we responded yes, & requested 2 glasses of wine. The wine took 15 minutes to arrive at the table.

4) There was no check up done to ask if the food was to my liking after the first or second course of my table d'hote, only the main course.

5) I was not offered another glass of wine.

6) After finishing my coffee, 15 minutes elapsed & I was not asked if I wanted anything else or my bill. I had to to the bar inside (we were on the terasse) & the bartender had to go drag the server out from the kitchen where she was hanging out.

Having said this, the atmosphere was great & the food was well prepared.
