My husband and I were looking for a very elegant fine dining experience close to home (humble) and went to CitySearch to read reviews....I must say - I was a bit nervous by some of the reviews indicating that this place was grossly overpriced but took our chances because of the description of the restaurant itself - we are SO GLAD we took the chance.
Those indicating that this place is overpriced must not be experienced in the ""fine dining"" world. The atmosphere is spectacular and very intimate, keeping with the french style. Scott and his staff took excellent care of us and was very attentive - we never had to flag down a server for ANYTHING.
We enjoyed the Chef's Table with Pairings (which we ALWAYS do at a French Restaurant) and this is a wonderful value for the portions of both the food and the wine servings. Stacy is very creative with her food styles, flavors, and plating. She finished us off with Chocolate Souffle (which, by the way, is my ABSOLUTE favorite!) and she did NOT disappoint me.
We were not rushed thru dinner at all and, as I am a smoker, paced dinner so that I could be excused from the table between our dinner and dessert. In addition to our dinner and wine pairings, my husband and I both had two JW Black's as well as additional glasses of our favorite wines, making our total bill $285 - NOT a bad price to pay for a few hours of excellent food, fantastic wine, and spectacular service.
If you are looking for a true fine dining experience close to home and are not afraid to pay for it this is your place. We will most definitely be making Chez Nous a regular enjoyment!!!! Thanks to everyone at Chez Nous for making our date night so wonderful!
