Used to be a good place but is noisy now, food is so-so. I hate seeing good places going down but this does happen.

The food and the service cannot be compared to any place you've ever been it is the finest restaurant with great music and amazing service and ambience read more

Decided to try this little spot out. Ordered 4 of the special Mojito's and honestly they all sucked in their own separate ways.. I also ordered a Skirt Steak. This piece of meat had to of been something nasty because the meal was like chewing on bubble gum. It took about 3 drinks and 40 min to finally get food served on a Tuesday night. IT WAS DEAD - AND NOW I KNOW WHY. My buddy ordered Shredded Beef I believe. It literally was a bowl of beef. NASTY ! read more

The food was average, but not worth the high prices. We were in a side room since the main room was extremely noisy. The room was dark and dreary with no ambiance, something like a third rate "family restaurant". Service was also spotty. read more

Came here for a meeting and can only review on location as we were there before they were serving food or drinks. I must say that the ambience was nice and that the design and layout were inviting, warm and accomodating. Will review for food on update. read more

I love this place. The menu is the most creative Mediterranian that I have experienced. One usually thinks Greek when you say Mediterranian, but they regularly feature different cuisines from all over that region. Italian, Greek, Spanish, even Moroccan. Their wine list is extensive and the daily $30 per person preset dinner is a full five courses. A huge bargain for this area!! read more

We had an amazing experience here while on vacation in Delray. Happy hour is excellent. Food was amazing, I had the Dover sole and my husband had the roasted duck. The service was exceptional and my husband wanted to smoke a cigar and they set up a private table for us outside and we enjoyed after dinner drinks. Will definitely be on our list to visit the next time we are in town. read more

A truly unexpected pleasure. My wife and ate there on june 30 and found it to be perfect. We were seated immediately, per our reservation. The food was delicious. We had a 4 course "chefs menu" which consisted of a choice between 2 appetizers. We had the pate. 2nd course was a choice between 3 dishes we had sautéed frog legs and the seafood crepe. Third was a cheese course, followed by choice of 2 desserts. And it came with a glass of wine. Service was impeccable. Food was presented promptly. An example. I dropped my fork on the floor. Before I could even look for our waiter he showed up and offered me another. They changed silverware after each course. I had a second glass of wine and we each had an espresso. Total bill with 22% tip was $100. Now granted, it was a summer special price, but the service was exemplary and we highly recommend it. read more

A very happy hour or two took place at longstanding Mediterranean themed Delray restaurant La Cigale. Their special menu included two for one drinks and some very pleasing $6 Tapas options including daily bruschetta and flatbread choices along with lobster fritters and pervasive sliders. A professional wait staff completes the experience by offering suggestions and expertly balancing busy bar and dining room activities. read more

While this is convenient and has a nice ambiance the positives end there. We took a business client from out of town here and we were poorly handled from the start. Upon arrival front of house was very confused and when they finally seated us thought it might improve as waitress seemed nice but the food was just dismal for this price point. I had the tomato and mint soup - it tasted like mushed tomato with oil and mint. Then I had the pasta with chicken, sausage and escarole which looked thrown together, had a odd greasy sauce and the chicken was tasteless. Of the 4 of us no one had anything they'd order again nor would any of us recommend this restaurant. The final insult was the owner or manager who went to every table but ours greeting people - it was as if we were invisible. My business partner finally called him over and spoke to him in French about the experience - skip this place for a much nicer meal try Sundy House, Latitudes, or any of the many fine dining establishments in Delray! read more

Good food, but off the strip and not near anything else. Not walkable from hotels. Not a young crowd here. More of a high brow family affair. read more

I would call La Cigale a hidden gem. I booked a private room in their restaurant after doing a yelp search and then driving to Delray to meet with their manager. After planning a wedding with a little more than a month to spare, the owner and the staff at La Cigale were amazing and very accommodating. They had the larger of the two beautiful private rooms classically decorated, had our wedding cake beautifully set up with the cake topper, and had a lot of menu options to even suite my gluten-free and vegetarian friends. Everyone in my party was pleased with the quality and taste of their meal. If you are planning a small wedding, and need a reception venue with delicious food, great staff, and excellent ambiance, La Cigale is it. It is also about a 15 minute drive from the Morikami Japanese Gardens, the site of our wedding. read more

Nice, upscale restaurant with an unpretentious staff. The ambiance is intimate and very European. The unique menu offers a mix of French, Greek, Italian and Moroccan dishes. The wine list is fabulous. The Sea Bass I ordered was wonderful and seasoned with an aromatic blended black olive tepenade. The antipasto platter was full of surpeises too a nice home made hummus, artichokes and kalamata olives were my favorite choices. Overall staff is attentive and pleasant and prices are decent. I would like to try for lunch next time. read more

Checked this place out for dinner... What a lovely place. Curtsy valet, excellent Meditation foods, drinks oh and save room for dessert. It's a must! read more

This was always my FAVORITE Delray restaurant. Went there Saturday night for my birthday and it was down right AWFUL. My duck was so burned it was like eating wood. And the karaoke singer was so cheesy! I will never return! read more

The ambience was lovely the service was fine and attentive. There is valet parking. The Greek salad was lacking but the main courses was excellent skip the salads and go for the main course. The wine was exceptional but pricey. The decor is lovely and recently renovated. It is romantic. Slightly out of the way location but easy to get to the deserts were outstanding. On Monday night at seven they were not crowded. We had a reservation but there were empty tables read more

Great food and service. Quiet and charming, Mussells and fries to die for, great duck and shrimp. Best French in town. Busy on Sunday night.

It was expensive. But if I could give a 2.5, I would. First of all, the grilled artichoke with aioli was wonderful. But then the main course came, beef bourgenion or however u spell it. It was awful. Bad fatty meat that could not be seen on the dark. Poor sauce. Yikes. What happened??? They should have done it better. Good luck. read more

La Cigale is so so so good with food allergies BUT listen, every year I go there and the manager usually cooks my meal just to make sure I'm safe. Food is always absolutely perfect and I love going there. Tonight I went, I decided to get a lemonade and I took a sip and my throat started to close up. Turns out there is milk in their lemonade. SO this is just a warning there is milk in the powder they use in their lemonade. I still plan on coming back and even though the lemonade almost killed me, it tasted really good. If you have food allergies just be careful when you're there and try to call ahead. Would've probably given this 5 stars except for me almost dying and also not having the rest of my meal. I still would recommend going and food is excellent read more

We went here for my birthday dinner and while the food was good the service was lacking considering what a high end place this is supposed to be. I've had better service at my local dive bar. The food was also overpriced for very small portions. read more

A truly classy restaurant with outstanding food! The décor is well done, although not trendy. The demographics appear to be a little older and somewhat seasonal. It was immediately clear that some patrons are regulars and were greeted very warmly. Having been a couple of times for dinner, I have not been remotely disappointed as everything has been delicious. The strip steak with a green peppercorn sauce was remarkable and one I highly recommend. This place shows that it can pay to leave the main strip of restaurants in areas like Atlantic Ave and not even by a far distance to find a quality place! It's a little more expensive than a typical night out, so you might consider it as a celebratory spot. read more

Overall we had a good dinner experience. The duck foie gras was a nice start to our meal. Served on a piece of brioche, it was seared and dressed with a cassis liquor reduction and berries. The osso buco was cooked so tender, falling off the bone. It was served with pappardelle pasta which was perfectly cooked. The coq au vin was also nice and tender, served with delicious roasted potatoes. The portions are large, a bit larger than typical French portions. To end we had the apple tarte tatin, and I must say it was not my favorite but I'm not a fan of apple desserts I general. My husband liked it a lot though. Prices are on the higher end compared to other restaurants in the area. Wine list was ok, cork fee only $25. Service was great. Definitely will be coming back to try more. read more

Slightly off the beaten path in downtown Delray Beach, this terrific restaurant offers exquisite French-style cuisine and truly professional service. Sweetbreads among the best I ever had. Lose a point for gouging on wine prices. $55 for $10 retail bottle! Look for $50 Restaurant.com certificate to ease the hit to your wallet. read more

The last time we has visited La Cigale was when they were located on Atlantic Ave, right where the new Seagate Hotel now stands. We remember them as being pretty good then... they appear to be even better now. These are folks that know how to prepare interesting dishes.. their Branzino is a favorite, and the endive salad is one of the best anywhere. For no particular reason it took us awhile to revisit them.. it will be just another couple of days until we return. read more

What a gem. The Gigale has excellent reviews and with good reason, they are excellent! I visited with family for lunch and was treated to the best lunch buffet ever. A few top quality selections made for an unforgettable meal. I highly recommend you stop by enjoy a taste of the mediterranean. read more

Yes, expensive but the food is well worth it. If you're expecting American sized portions, this is not the place. They serve just the right amount. Loooove their lamb and sparkling water. Customer service is also very good. read more

Did not come for steak, ended up getting the filet and it was one of the best cooked steaks I've ever eaten. Have come back many times to try new things, but I always get the escargot. Classic French service and atmosphere. read more

Amazing food and service!! The escargot was incredible (we asked to not have the puffed pastry in fear of being too full, but their house bread went well with it), we shared the Greek salad (fresh and tasty) which they split for us, the petite osso buco was not a petite at all and was fall off the bone and melt in your mouth good. Everything about our experience last night there was amazing!! I will be back! read more

The attention from the staff was excellent, very personable and friendly. The food was delicious, even the escargot! Highly recommended.

Our favorite restaurant in Delray Beach! The food is amazing! It is tough to choose which dishes we want each time. Definitely the pate'. Fresh fish is delicately prepared and the wonderful fried liver! Dessert is so good, you must save room. The management and staff are warm and welcoming. Wine list is great too. It is so hard to find this level of fine dining. Thank you for what you do La Cigale! read more

The service was on par when there is 130 of us. The food was okay. Had the seafood crepe. It was too salty and rich.

We have returned to La Cigale many times and have loved it every time. The sweet breads are spectacular! The service is flawless. Enjoy!

Went for the first time yesterday with a few friends during happy hour and the food was delicious! We sampled a good portion of the tapas bar menu and each plate was full of flavor - Pate de Campagne, grilled beef kebabs, oysters Rockefeller, and the fried calamari with balsamic glaze. The frogs legs provenciale was also amazing! Bernie took great care of us and the Pouilly Fuisse he recommended was perfect! Highly recommend the happy hour and I can't wait to go back for dinner. read more

A TERRIBLE experience! We made the mistake of displaying a $75 coupon from restaurant.com, and were then treated as second class citizens. Although the owner/manager knew I was celebrating an important birthday,and that I spoke French, he never bothered to visit our table, even though he made the rounds of the room chatting with all the "regulars." The food was fair: the duck was tasteless, the paella was just OK, and they forgot one of the appetizers. The only really good things were the lamb chops and the chocolate cake. I am a Francophile and know really good French food. This was definitely NOT it! And the room is so noisy one could not hear the person immediately adjacent. The worst part of the experience was the bill. We were told that the tip would be included in the total, since some people forget to tip on the price before the coupon, which was fine. The PROBLEM? They charged us the tip in the total and then a SECOND TIME at the end of the bill. The two men spent almost 30 minutes trying to get it straightened out: the restaurant did not want to rip up the first charge and re-issue it. They finally did. Upon returning home, we called the credit card companies and found that both couples had been CHARGED for the dinner TWICE! Two days later, the second, duplicate charge was reversed, but the restaurant charged us a THIRD TIME for the price of the dinner without the tip. At no point did the owner/manager apologize for any of this. All in all, a miserable experience. First and LAST time dining here. Many much better places in Delray, for half the price with much friendlier atmosphere. . read more

Really?? I can not believe some of these positive reviews. The decor is nice, upscale. We went just as dinner was opening. Ordered stuffed eggplant...MUSH!!! Tasteless except for the too sweet tomato sauce. My nephew had the seafood paella. Average at best. Honestly, this place is WAY overrated and over priced. Two entrees, no beverages, a $25. certificate, and the bill, with tip was $48.00. Not bad, if the food was good, but this was a total disappointment. We left totally unsatisfied. Even at half the price, I could not recommend this restaurant. read more

Went to this amazing restaurant, last night. I knew all was starting well when the parking attendant greeted us respectfully, the host greated us so friendly and showed us our lovely table. The waiter, Iggie, was so engaging and thorough. The meal was warm, delicious and nicely presented. Dessert was to die for. I would recommend this restaurant for a fine dining experience read more

One of the best restaurants around service is great the food is outstanding the ambience is delightful the ownership is the friendliest and the drinks are greatcan't say enough about it read more

Food and drinks were tasty, but overpriced a little. Service was average. I think at a tablecloth restaurant with the bill over $100 with two entrees, a cup of soup and two drinks - a good crumbing at the end of the meal is in order. Not just a swipe with a manager's hand while dropping off desert menus. read more

I loved this place! It was my birthday dinner. I had scallops and my fiance had pasta and the food simply melts in your mouth! The prices are a bit expensive but I think it is well worth it! read more

As a restaurant owner in my younger days, I am very familiar with how food should be prepared and taste---I consider myself a expert on cioppino or as La Cigale has it on there menu "soupe de poisson" Fair warning, this was the worst I have had in my 79 years. It consisted of a weak broth and it was filled with cubed potatoes masquerading as pieces of white fish and about $3.00 worth of shellfish. And, mind you they have the audacity to charge $39.00 for this dish. read more
