To be more specific, the consistentcy was just off. It was not nearly firm enough, and the cream on top did not seem fresh and was kind of runny as well. Flavor was lacking. Overall, just pretty bad.

If by cream on top, you mean most of the dish, it was runny and not fluffy. The pot de creme itself tasted fine, but the dish is a shadow of its former self and they are proud of it ($10).

It was packed in there tonight. I’m not mad at that. Glad to see them doing well and giving the finger to JBE’s 50% capacity BS.

Service was friendly, but damn, it was slow. It was a date night for us, so it didn’t really matter. Drinks were good as usual. Fois gras appetizer was humorously tiny. Wife got the mixed green salad and lobster mac and cheese. Best part about that was the fried goat cheese served with the salad. I got the lobster roll. It was good, and I would get again. Lots of good sounding items on the menu, but portion sizes are tiny for the price and compared to the old Beausoleil. It lacks the charm of the old place though.
