La Kitchenette - Greshamville

I can see why this restaurant is closing. We were a party of 4 and there were 2 empty tables located in pretty good spots completely set-up with glasses, silverware and menus. The server pointed to the 1 table in a cramped corner, not set-up, by the front door and said That 's your table . We asked about the other tables and were told rather curtly that they were reserved. We had reservations too so why the attitude? Water was brought to the table in two bottles, warm room temperature. The temperature outside was near 90 degrees and the air conditioning was not producing cool air so it was stuffy and claustrophobic. She took our order, served the food and wasn 't really attentive until we were almost ready to go. Then, paying the bill on her iPad, the only option for gratuity was 20%, 22%, 25%. My husband and I are very good tippers, especially since Covid to help servers continue to catch up on lost wages. BUT... this server did not earn more than 15%. We never tip under that for poor service because we are not cheap, just fair. Anyway this is mute, as the restaurant is closing and I can see why. It was dirty, the service bordered on rude and the food wasn 't something to make you want to come back to.

Good food and great service. We especially enjoyed the variety of the charcuterie platter. Some good red wine choices. Best of all is the intimate atmosphere. I wish someone would buy La Kitchenette to keep it running!

We happened upon this adorable French Homestyle Cafe for brunch, and we are so glad we did. Reservations are recommended, but we lucked out with an open table. The atmosphere was so charming and intimate, the food was incredible, and the service was great. We will be bringing friends with us next time.

We went to this restaurant with our college aged son to celebrate his birthday. It is a lovely French cafe with delicious food that we all enjoyed. We had the popular charcuterie board, deviled eggs, beef Bourguignon, Poulet de Normandie, and chicken rice dish. All our food was wonderful. We started with a champagne toast and I had the best kir royale that I’ve had in the US here! I highly recommend this spot.

We went to celebrate our son's 21st birthday. It was a lovely place, affordably priced, and not too stuffy for a young adult. Our appetizers included the deviled eggs and charcuterie board. Both were excellent with a wide variety of meat on the board vs. other places. The beef Bourguignon was delicious served with mashed potatoes and salad. The two chicken entrees were both good I recommend this spot for a delicious French cafe meal.
