I recently hosted a baby shower at Le Sud. We chose this restaurant because we wanted to support a local restaurant in our community.From the initial contact with the owner, Sandy, to the shower itself, the process was seamless and perfect. I had some unusual requirements for some of our guests and Sandy accommodated them all. The staff who worked our event were professional and VERY efficient. The food was outstanding! Sandy worked with us to refine the menu, even going so far as to make a special dish for a vegan guest. I have had so many comments from our guests as to how good the food was. The food was served family style and there was definitely enough with some left overs. (Favorite dish by far was the quiche.) We hosted the event upstairs in the Salle du Soleil. The room was set up with one long table for all the guests and there was room to walk on both sides. We had a gift table as well as a photo corner so lots of room. I was able to see the room beforehand so I knew to keep the centerpieces small.Everything was perfect!!! We will definitely be back.

Le Sud - Prendre Deux 5 years and Le Sud is still going strong so time to revisitA beautiful July night and our table of 6 is running late for our 7:00 outdoor reservation. They keep our table and have us promptly seated when we arrive. Our waiter - Vernon - is prompt, professional and full of advice and suggestions (a huge positive after our last experience). Drinks come quickly followed by a couple salads and lamb meatballs. All solid and good choices. Sadly the star of our last visit, the carrots, were not on the menu. On to the main courses - 2 filets, 2 frites and 2 pork chops (yes, trying the pork again). I would like to say that after 5 years that everything was incredible. Sadly, that was not the case. Steaks all came out medium well and lukewarm even though 2 were ordered medium rare and 2 medium. The pork chops (and only thing I took a picture of), while favorable, also came out lukewarm but still very edible vs the prior visit. Overall, an ok experience and probably a 3.5 which was rounded up to a 4. Now if only they brought back the carrots...

I went here with friends for a late Saturday brunch on a beautiful day and it did not disappoint. The patio is perfect for sitting outside in the summer and the decor inside feels very Mediterranean and French elegance. Got the quiche and it was perfectly cooked, extremely fluffy and paired with a fresh salad. All of my friends loved the option they got from the frittata to the French toast and crispy potatoes. The service was pretty good, but we did arrive around closing so it was a bit more rushed than I bet it normally is. Overall, I definitely want to return for dinner ! Great place in the neighborhood.

The place: pretty large spot. Was decorated to the nines for the holidays. Lots of lights and ornaments. Unfortunately one rather large and pointy ornament fell about 3 inches away from a patron in our section. Luckily no one was hurt, but not exactly in line with the festive spirit. Service was fine. The taste: the lamb lollipops were nicely done. We also shared the Brussels sprouts, steak and potatoes, and possibly one more dish. My face: not uber impressed, but overall does have kind of a sexy vibe. $150 for three of us to share some dishes and a few mocktails. 4 starts because I do think I'd go back even though it's not inexpensive. Not in a rush to go back, but for a sweet date night, it'd make the cut.

I came for restaurant week and while the food was delicious, the service was lacking. I really don't think I would ever come back.The tone was set when they sat my friend and I next to the door, in the outdoor patio. I did reserve the patio area but if I had known we'd spend the entire evening having our seats whacked by people entering and exiting the area, I would've left and gone elsewhere. When I asked to move, they said "we have a plan" and just left it at that. Service for the rest of the evening was disappointing. I felt like I was always waiting - waiting for the server to get our dinner order in, waiting for someone to clear the course, waiting for them to come back with our credit cards. Just waiting. Waiting for them to put my cocktail order in and then come back saying they're out of the sangria. That was disappointing - the first cocktail on the menu and they were out of it. Disappointing.Food was delicious. I'll give them that. The French onion soup was tasty, the ibérico pork was flavorful, the crème brûlée was just the right amount of sweet. But I can't see going back.

This review is a thank you to the restaurant team. My son has several food allergies, including wheat. It is extremely difficult to go out to eat and find one option that's safe for him, let alone several. Since first coming to Le Sud with him a month ago, we've been back every weekend almost and plan to continue. The team is very knowledgeable about to accommodate. And for my celiacs or wheat allergy people, the fryer is gluten free and they make some of the best fries I've ever had! The food is all delicious, and even more delicious knowing how accommodating they are. We've had several appetizers and entrees and liked them all. My favorites are the burger (no bun) and scallops. The happy hour is a great deal for drinks, and again, fries are on there! They also have a rewards program! Overall I liked this place before we had my son, and I love it now knowing there is a restaurant making amazing allergy friendly food! Plus, vibes are super cute and they're always decorating for the holidays. And they are very kid friendly!

Went to Le Sud with 3 of my friends for their restaurant week menu! With this you each get a small plate, large plate, and desert. I got the octopus, filet mignon, and bread pudding. The steak was cooked perfectly and the aioli with the octopus married perfectly together. Enzo had the Iberian pork which was truly out of this world. I think this was my favorite dish of the night. The place was super cute, it's still decked out in christmas decorations and each chair had a cute lil sweater on it. The waitstaff was incredibly attentive to us and very kind. The restaurant week price was an awesome value for this meal. I'd definitely go back.

I want to thank you for helping us throw a lovely bridal brunch today. Sandy is amazing to work with and was so responsive and flexible throughout the planning process. We so appreciate you allowing us to use the middle of the restaurant and for having the BEST food and presentation! Everyone enjoyed everything and there was a large quantity and Sean was an attentive and wonderful server for the whole party! He even helped us hang some decor to give it a travel theme. Brandon, max and Sean and the whole staff was happy to accommodate anything we needed and went out of their way to make the party flow and feel special. A HUGE thank you for being the best destination for any special occasion or party! We will all be back and look forward to enjoying your delicious food and hospitality! Highly recommend having your next party at Le Sud!

We pulled up to this restaurant for the first time and immediately felt a warm welcome from the hostess, which was lovely. We were promptly seated in the patio which we thought was well decorated with the cool toned color scheme and plethora of plants. The round bistro-sized tables are kind of small especially when two people both have a couple drinks and food on the table all at once. The restaurant itself has a very warm and cozy feel for the interior and exterior, but it's a little snug especially when it's busy. I found myself sliding past people to get to the bathroom and back, but I appreciate the staff letting me pass first making it easier to maneuver through the restaurant. For appetizers, we went with lamb meatballs which were excellent, and the escargot which was just okay (very small pieces and a little too much cheese and oil for my taste so I probably wouldn't get that again). Our main dishes were the filet mignon and duck. The duck was delicious, but the accompanying fondant potatoes (3 of them lol) were dry and unseasoned. If I could give an overall 4.5 stars, I would, as we loved our server for being super friendly and accommodating. However the wait time for getting our drinks and the check were a little long. It was busy though, so we were fine. Overall we definitely enjoyed our time and would come back.
