Bonne Nuit/New Canaan-Very Disappointing!!
have you put this on a review of the Harvest Supper? I haven't been there yet... but have been to every other restaurant in New Canaan except Aloi. After your review, I'm not intending to go there anytime soon. I'll take your Schoolhouse suggestion. Any others? Also do you happen to know the owner(s) of Bonne Nuit because I heard the woman there "Ro" or something is just the manager? And that the owners of Bonne Nuit, Gates, and Teq Mock are all partners.
Cheers.
Bonne Nuit/New Canaan-Very Disappointing!!
Good Food. TERRIBLE Service. Overpriced.
The woman who works there with the mousy red hair lacks in class, social graces, and has a terrible attitude. We dined there, spent $200 on a Wednesday night when there were only 8 patrons in the restaurant and they STILL managed to make us feel rushed out.
The woman came to our table 4 times to take our order as if she was in a hurry or trying to turn the table on a busy Saturday night. Our wine came when we had JUST received our pre-dinner drinks and bread- so we told them to wait. Our appetizers came out within 2 minutes of ordering- not an exaggeration. Then our entrees came 30 seconds after the apps were finished- also not an exaggeration. Did I mention there were only 8 people in the restaurant and it was mid-week? The meals were ok- apps were nothing special, scallops were delicious but the salmon was dry. Dessert was 'good'.
The ambiance is 'cozy' and small, yes tightly packed, but none of that would matter if it weren't for this woman's tacky demeanor and rude disposition. She has a twangy accent, sloppy appearance, and honestly seems like she'd be better suited waiting tables in a diner. If she is questioned on anything she gets major attitude and is simply quite rude.
We will never be back there again and we live in New Canaan.
If you are looking for a good New Canaan restaurant try:
Sole- incredible food, seafood arrives by fed-ex daily and is so fresh, service impeccable - a fav of ours
Plum Tree- delicious and so friendly- we only go here for sushi, one of our favorites
Ching's Table- very original Asian fusion and always a good experience
Tequila Mockingbird- great food, great vibe, great service
Honestly, try anywhere but Bonne Nuit. Then, you might actually HAVE a bonne nuit.
