We went to Le Supreme on Saturday. We're big fans of French cuisine, after living in Europe for several years. The Le Supreme menu puts a modern twist on some regional specialties.

The atmosphere is classy without trying to be too upscale. That's the main difference between Le Supreme and The Statler. But I thought the relaxed atmosphere was much more comfortable and fit the French style of dining. They spared no expense in the interior design. It could have been pulled right out of Paris' 3rd arrodissement.

The steak tartare and oefs mimosa were excellent starters. The onion soup was as expected. The roasted duck was the biggest hit at our table.

Dined at Le Supreme a couple of weeks ago. The place is a very nice addition to the downtown restaurant scene. As DetSoldier said, the interior design is impressive. Yes, it's kind of faux Paris but it's done nicely and not over the top. The menu is tightly edited to mostly include just the usual French bistro fare. That's ok because that kind of menu/cuisine is pretty scarce around here. It certainly isn't often found in the city. Everything ordered at our table got positive reactions. Food was really good, drinks were maybe even better. The high energy vibe of the place could make many wish they could make it into their weekly neighborhood joint. And some people might do that but the non-bistro price point of the menu will be an obstacle for folks who have limits on their dining budgets.
