We appreciated the fact that the waitress who served us spoke enough English to help us make our choices, but was also happy to help us with our pronunciation of French. We chose the middle-priced menu option, and enjoyed all our choices - we were particularly impressed with the lamb that was a special on the day.

The pan seared sea bass over risotto perfectly cooked and exceptionally flavorful. All the desserts highlighted the fruits of the spring season. Strawberries were front and center and delicious. Very good wine list, focused on the Cote du Rhone appellation. Reasonably priced, Le Bateleur hits all the right marks.
