Cozy with the perfect volume of a live guitarist (not too loud.) Great wine and service for a relaxing meal with friends!

Bonnie was amazing. I’m might have her name wrong. But our waitress made our night. She was attentive and warm. The food was pretty good. Not the best BLT I’ve ever had. But the lamb and mustard greens were great.

A true hidden gem in LaGrange! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brulee is an absolute must-visit! It has only been open for a few months, and it honestly deserves to be way busier than it was tonight. The local community needs to come out and support this amazing new spot—give them a chance and I promise you will be incredibly happy with your choice. The food was spectacular. We started with the Brie bites and the roasted vegetable fromage, followed by the excellent chicken course. For dessert, the Biscoff crust cheesecake was out of this world! The bar program is just as strong. We ordered an Espresso Martini, a regular dry martini, and an Old Fashioned, and every single drink was mixed perfectly. The atmosphere is very warm, nice, and welcoming, featuring a fantastic setup with plenty of outside seating available. What really sets this place apart, though, is the exceptional hospitality. Our server, Miracle, did an absolutely excellent job taking care of us. On top of that, the Chef came out to our table twice just to check on us and get our genuine impressions of the meal. This is a beautiful, top-tier addition to LaGrange. Do yourself a favor and check it out!

The food was delicious . We had fried green tomatoes as an appetizer. My husband had crab cakes and a side salad . I had a blackened fish sandwich and side salad . We had an amazing dessert that was a family recipe . It was so good that when we go back that we will get two instead of sharing one . It was reasonably priced . Our waiter ,C.J. , was great. It was a wonderful experience. We will be back.
