Aquitaine

All I can say is wow. I had an afternoon reservation today for Brunch, and I can definitely say that a reservation is the way to go, as it was quite full for Sunday brunch. I particularly appreciated their flexibility as we arrived five minutes late (thank you to the chaos that is the Green Line...). We were greeted and served by Alexis super quickly, who worked efficiently to make sure we had drinks and food ready in a timely manner. She was very personable and made our experience unique! As for food, my girlfriend and I could have ordered the entire menu. We looked at the menu beforehand, but we were both still in between options after we arrived - everything looked absolutely delicious! I ended up with the Croque Madame while my girlfriend got the crispy chicken sandwich and truffle fries. The croque madame was the best one I have had so far outside of literal France itself. It was packed with flavor and came with a light, refreshing side salad. My girlfriend's truffle fries were to DIE for, and I found myself periodically grabbing a few. We couldn't finish out our anniversary brunch without dessert, and after a difficult time choosing between the entire dessert menu, got the chocolate mousse. This was the BEST way to finish off our Aquitaine experience, with fresh whipped cream and dark chocolate that was the perfect level of sweetness. We're both college students, and so the reasonable prices for an upscale restaurant in the South End were the icing on the cake. After taxes and tip, the total was $70 for drinks, entrees, and dessert. Aquitaine, I will DEFINITELY be back. In a perfect world, Aquitaine would be my regular brunch fix!

The servers were really sweet. I got a croque Monsieur, and it was excellent and everyone really seemed to enjoy their dishes. The ingredients tasted very fresh. Three stars because they did not have any paper/physical menus. I love the QR code menus, but I was with my grandmothers who were struggling so I asked for a paper menu at the hostess stand and they didn't have any.

The perfect neighborhood spot for brunch! It was quiet around 11am on a Sunday. I got the brioche French toast, which was classic and delicious.. It was soft inside and crisp outside with a nice breading. A big portion that also came with bacon. I had a bite of my friend's duck hash, which was also good but didn't contain that much duck. Good service and really reasonable prices for brunch (~$15/dish).

Decent French-inspired brunch food.Came here for brunch the other weeks with some friends. The ambience is lovely, looks like a chic, French cafe. The service was prompt and friendly and the food decent. I ordered the Duck Hash and Eggs. As expected it was a bit greasy (it's duck confit after all), but delicious and came with a fried egg on top and some toast. I also ordered the creme brûlée which had good flavor but not the right consistency, it was pretty soupy. I expect better from a French restaurant. However, the french onion soup, which my friends all ordered, looked and tasted fantastic.Food: 4/5Service: 5/5Ambience: 5/5Extra mention of subpar crème brûlée

Had a fancy Friday night dinner with some buds to kick off the new academic year, and my goodness did we kick it off...This was truly one of the best dining experiences I've ever had in my life. The prices are fair and the portions are reasonable. The only thing is that they charge you for what seems to be complimentary San Pellegrino, so be cautious about that. We dropped $40 on two bottles. We ordered a charcuterie board and escargot to start off with and both were truly delicious. The escargot was silky and not too strong, and the board had 3 really tasty cheeses and jams to pair with the toast. I enjoyed the pickled blueberry jam, which was new to me but ended up being a great compliment to the board. I wish we got a bigger piece of honeycomb, but other than that it was amazing. For the main course I ordered the truffle burger which came with French fries for a reasonable price of $24 and it was probably one of the best burgers I've ever had. I always order my red meat to be well done, which is risky flavor wise, but this burger came with such high reward. It was incredibly juicy and paired so nicely with the truffle. The truffle was not overpowering at all. The fries were piping hot and there was a generous serving. To top it off, we finished the night with some crème brûlée, which was silky and had a beautiful custard taste. The bill came out to about $160 with tip for 3 people which included 2 bottles, 2 appetizers, 3 entrees and a dessert. This was VERY reasonable for an upscale restaurant. I can't wait to come back...

Really cute inside! Nice friendly service and fair prices for somewhere in the heart of the south end! Portions were a little small but I don't mind. I had the skillet scramble and it was pretty good. I'm looking forward to going back and trying other menu items!

Awesome place for a group brunch with immaculate vibes. I came here on a Sunday morning in a group of 5 and got seated in the round table near the front of the restaurant. In a cold winter day, it felt extremely cozy and homey. The food was really enjoyable and they do a great job of adding a French twist to the classic American breakfast dishes. I would definitely plan on coming back here!

Got dinner here with a friend on a rainy Thursday night. The ambiance was much fancier than had anticipated and service wasn't the best, but we were in no rush. They were participating in Restaurant Week so we ordered items that weren't on their regular menu, and it was delicious. Wine selection was great too. I would recommend this spot if you're looking for a nice dinner spot!

I think this place is alright, lack in flavor and a pricey menu. I don't think I'll be back

This French brunch restaurant is beautiful. There is a bar, and the interior design is lovely. The service was good and the food came out delicious. For drinks, we got the lavender and elderflower spritz and bellini. I highly recommend the bellini lavender and elderflower spritz. It is very refreshing and went well with brunch. For food, we got avocado tartine, omelet alsacienne, and aquatine burger. The food was all very good. Anyone ordering the omelette comes with sides. I requested truffle fries, and they added a side of toast. The ingredients used to feel really good quality and food feel very healthy. The only complaint, if any of the truffle fries, was good, but it is the mayo truffle sauce.
