Reviews for La Cigale in Delray Beach, FL
Although the food was good we did not feel that the ambiance was relaxed. Got the impressions that they were pushing to sell... wine and move the tables. Nice to have white tablecloth throughout. Had a professional disagreement with the bar tender how aManhattan should be made ( and definitely not the cheap red cherries). Happy that we tried it but will not hurry back. Read more
We evacuated from the west coast due to Ian and found this fantastic restaurant. The food is excellent with a wide range of... choices. The wine list also us varied and well curated. Thus is also one of the most welcoming resturants I have been to in awhile. Debbie mixes up fantastic drinks at the bar and is just a wonderful person. There is a regular following here, all ofwhom make you feel at home. The happy hour and bar dinner menu are a real bargain. We ate in the dining room the first nightand then the bar the next night. Yes we went two nights in a row. There are plenty of resturants around, but none like thiswonderful establishment. It is worth a trip, even without a hurricane. Read more
Super elegant restaurant and bar with a live singer, the place is small but very lively. The selection of plates are very unique... but fall on the expensive side, the flambé tarte tatin dessert was awesome, definitely the best of the night. The staff werevery gentle and fast, also complementary ballet parking no complaints at all, it was an amazing night. Read more
Located just south of the Avenue in Delray Beach is the mainstay La Cigale, which serves up a cross between various... Mediterranean cuisines with focus on French and Italian flavors. The crowd, on one hand, made me feel quite youthful as we werethe only ones not with gray on top I recollect, but managed to feel slightly out of place as well. Nonetheless, it was quiteenjoyable as they had an older gentlemen singing hits by Sinatra and other classics along those lines. As for the menus therewas nothing creative or out of the ordinary I would have liked to have seen so we opted for the grilled lamb chops were cookedrather well and flavorful. Nothing mind blowing, but worth getting. The chicken francese, pictured, was generous in portion,fresh and tender, rather enjoyable. Again, not the best I?ve had, but if I ended up here it would be a possible repeat. With asupremely friendly bartender that served us, it was a lovely meal. Read more
If you find yourself in Delray Beach area and you enjoy exquisite French cuisine this is the place for you. A staff... knowledgeable, courtesy and helpful compliment a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. Francis is a step above the averageowner/chef in every way. I will not only be back, I will make great effort to do so. Thank you all at La Cigale for a wonderfuldinner. Read more
Excellent choice for a warm cosy outing with the significant other. Great atmosphere and lighting, with professional wait... staff. The menu selection is very comprehensive, with a good selection for all. And lastly, but certainly not least, thetaste, quality and serving portions of the menu items are excellent!!! Attempting to describe the taste and flavoring of thefood, would be futile. It just has to be experienced. Loved every bite of everything wee tried. It is certainly a must for thehigher end dining experience. Two negative things worth pointing out, would be the location and the pricing. The location is alittle awkward (in what seems to be a drab residential neighborhood) and the pricing is a little on the high side. Nevertheless,I would recommend this place as a "must visit," if you're ever in the Deerfield beach area. Read more
Overpriced but definitely yummy. I loved the flatbread. We went for Happy Hour. The calamari was good.
My favorite place to celebrate with family. Amazing food. Great atmosphere.
