La Frite Belgian Bistro

Received a recommendation to try La Frite Belgian Bistro, so came out on a Friday night after making a reservation. Very nice, intimate restaurant in Southtown. Only about 15-20 tables and it keeps the experience very personal. Was immediately greeted at the door and seated with my reservation.

I think if I spend $120 for a dinner, we don't get windex in our food. Who on this planet uses aerosols to clean tables with guests?!

we have recently moved to sa and this is by far, hands down, the best restaurant I was still! we ordered the mosquitoes w fries, new england clam chowder, rack of lamb, ham / cheese/mosssroom crepe, chicken puff baked and chocolate mousse. all were for! customer service was excellent, they were so friendly and courteous, even offered to make an off-the menu item for children. this will definitely be our Go-to-Spot for visiting fam and friends! I wanted to make more photos, but it was too busy stuffing our face!
