eight of us together for my mothers 70th birthday
among everyone we pretty much got everything on the menu, so I got to taste a bunch of stuff

chicken liver pate at the start was addictive
oxtail ravioli, shrimp salad, risotto, beets, Bibb salads were the starters I remember
then drum with crabmeat, bouillabaisse, duck, swordfish, pork loin, lamb entrees
a whole bunch of desserts

everything was spectacular and the service was great
it had been years since I'd been there
great atmosphere and we left happy

well worth the drive

Went recently and had a similar experience. It is great.

Pro tip: You can purchase a pint of their chicken liver pate with ample crostinis to go for only ten dollars. We do that every thanksgiving and christmas. I might go get some today.

I live on the south shore but La Provence is my favorite restaurant on the north shore. Worth driving across the Causeway for.

as long as I've lived on the northshore and as many times as I've eaten there I never knew that. I'll definitely grab some for Easter now

I have never been but I have thought about it several times. The wife and I will definitely have to go.

I made the mistake of going on new years eve and I was severely disappointed in the service and food. The times before that the food was good, moral of the story...don't go to nice restaurants on holidays.
