YP is out of date. Last time we were there quality had markedly declined.

McD's has better customer service! – Just returned home from a most horrible expererience at La Tache. Lentil soup = bowl of salt! Ribeye Steak/Frites=mostly fat and grizzle and soggy fries. Side of spinach=cold. Waiter was not at all attentive even though the place was empty. Tried to get away with double charging for drink with no apology. He didn't even know which side of the plate the silverware was supposed to be placed. This used to be a nice place.....no more, and never again!!!!

Love this – I really had a nice time at this Andersonville Bistro last week. I just moved to the neighborhood a couple of months ago and I'm trying to make my way through the restaurants to find my favorite. This is at the top of the list so far. We were greeted immediately and told it would be a small wait for our table (it ended up being 30 minutes or so). The bartender got our drink order (after handling a few difficult guys at the bar) and she had our drinks promptly. The food did take a little longer than I would have l... read more

The worst French restaurant in Chicago – My partner and I had an 8:30 reservation for Valentine's Day. We'd been to La Tache twice before. We love french food and La Tache, though not at the top of our list, was certainly a place we found nice enough to visit a third time. We were seated at 9:10 -- 40 minutes late. The soup course, french onion, was the only one that was served at the correct temperature -- piping hot. The appetizer, tuna carpaccio -- sashimi-grade tuna with chocolate sauce (whu thu fu??) and pistachio crumb... read more

worst service and restaurant ive ever been to – This restaurant was a disaster. they took our order, drinks came. Then the wait began. Appetizers didn't come for over a hour and a half. Waitress never came back for 2nd drink order and when she did the bartender came out and told us they were out of the liquor we were drinking. Friends eatting with us said this was the 3rd time they have run out of liquor. then more waiting and after 3 hours we finally got our main course. With no explanation from our waitress. My order was w... read more

Very green staff – We were the second customers there on a Saturday evening (around 5:45) and waited by the host stand since no staff were visible. Finally we went outside and asked the busboy if we could sit. There was a lot of confusion, all through dinner, about who our waiter was. The service was pretty slow, but that doesn't surprise me whenever I sit outside. The food was all right -- a bit heavy and greasy and the mixed green salad was overpowered by the salty cheese ... they should have balanced it with something swe... read more

Great atomosphere and food – This place is not huge which is good because the waiter and staff can become attentive to everyone and they really are. I ordered lamb and it was cooked and served perfectly. I will definitely go back this place again.

This cozy bistro adds casual sophistication to Andersonville's dining scene. – The Scene A mixed crowd of couples and groups squeezes happily into this handsome room, where dark wood wainscoting, oversized lamp shades and tight tables create an intimate bistro feel, with a hint of minimalism implied by tiny pictures in enormous frames on otherwise bare walls. Jazzy music plays, adding to the classy, comfortable vibe. The Food The folks in the kitchn take a little bit of license with traditional French bistro fare--but heck, ... read more
