This place makes you feel like you are in one of the big cities: A fancy restaurant in the middle of a construction zone. The atmosphere and venue were very very plain but they make up for it with the food. Mostly for elderly or business occasions i would say.
Pretty disappointed… If I plan to spend this much for a meal, I expect to at least be impressed with the food. Our dinner tonight was average at best. We started with appetizers of fried oysters and the ahi tuna which were good, however took an hour to comeout. The tuna was not enough to share. Beforehand we had bread but only 4 tiny slices for four people, and no one offered us for more as we were waiting on our appetizers. We each ordered a different entree. My mother in law loved the veal which was very tender, well presented, and delicious. However, the portion was small and she was still hungry afterwards. I had the salmon which was fine, but nothing to write home about. It stated in the menu it was topped with shrimp, I think I found maybe two dime sized ones. It also was a small portion overall, and I was also still hungry. My father in law was very disappointed with his 50$ ribeye which was thinly cut and unimpressive. My husband’s pork shoulder maybe contained 5 decent sized bites. It was my mother in law’s birthday which they were informed of when we made reservations and when we sat down. I understand that not all places do things for birthdays, but after eating an underwhelming meal on top of nothing done to make her feel special on her birthday was the straw that broke the camels back. I probably won’t be back anytime soon.
Absolutely wonderful experience and meal! The service was great the entire night and the waiter was very knowledgeable about the dishes and wine. He suggested the strawberry salad as an appetizer, which included sweet strawberries, candied pecans, crisp lettuce, and blue cheese. Wonderful combination of flavors! For dinner, I had the Manchester Farms quail, which was stuffed with cornbread and shrimp. So delicious!! Served on top of Swiss chard and included sweet potato fries. For dessert, the waiter recommended the dark chocolate terrine, to pair with the Pinot noir that went with the dinner. The dessert was a dark chocolate pudding, with raspberries and a Bailey’s foam. It may have been one of the best desserts I’ve ever had! Also had the opportunity to meet Chris Dupont, the chef and owner. Extremely nice and thoroughly enjoyed talking to him. This was by far one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had!
We recently had a lovely meal at Cafe Dupont. I was with a party of 8, so quite large and they sat us in the bar area. My only complaint was that it was too quiet when we walked in and absolutely freezing cold! But otherwise, everything from the service to the food was amazing.We started with two of the full cheese plates that came with some greatcharred bread pieces; we had to get more of those! I had the tomato salad and burrata as an app which was very tasty. Perfectly ripe tomatoes, some of the best burrata I have had and a balsamic drizzle. I also sampled the watermelon salad which was very flavorful. For dinner I had the short rib that was beautifully tender and accompanied by a pan sauce that really made the dish. The truffle potato souffle was a very good companion. The entrees I sampled included the scallops – amazing – and ribeye – also good, but I am not a huge ribeye fan. I would certainly recommend to friends for a nice night out.One of my favorite things was that everything was explained in detail when you received your dish.
Totally worth the price. The best lamb I have every tried was at cafe DuPont. Service and food are great. They have an option for you to order a multi course meal that the chef picks for you. I highly recommend trying this option. You’ll find yourself trying and liking things you wouldn’t try or like before. There was only one dish I did not care for and that was the pork belly with succotash. But even that was still good – just not as good in comparison to the rest. This is definitely worth a try. And I encourage you to be adventuresome and let the chef decide.
My husband and I visited Cafe Dupont for the first time last night, and had a wonderful evening. The staff, to a person, were friendly without being overly familiar; the restaurant was elegant and truly beautiful (I was won over immediately upon seeing the William Morris-esque wallpaper in the bar); and the food was superb. We started with the fried oysters and okra, which were light, crispy, and perfectly golden. My husband had the rainbow trout over grits with tomato-caper marmalade. The fish was also perfectly fried and the grits were so creamy they hardly qualified as the lowly grit. His only suggestion was to add more capers to the marmalade. I had the duck breast. I usually don’t like duck, but ordered it based on our server’s (Jonathan) recommendation. Although he brought me a steak knife, the duck was so perfectly cooked that I could cut it with my fork. I absolutely loved it, as did my husband. We finished off the meal with coffee and the chocolate tart. The tart was excellent, but I have to say the coffee was even better. If you like espresso, don’t skip theirs. All in all a fabulous evening.
Good………………… Have eaten at this place around three times and I love it. Here’s to Pork Belly mmmmmm. Atmosphere is great and food is fantastic.
