Cafe de Fleur

Amazing experience tonight at Cafe de Fleur. We started with the bread plate that came with three seasonal butters that were all so good. Then had the ribeye with potatoes and brussels. Ribeye was cooked perfect and so flavorful, brussels were not too dry and not too soggy, potatoes were crisp. Desserts and drinks were a hit too!

Café de Fleur catered our holiday party for about 40 people at Sessions Cocktails, and everything was absolutely amazing! The heavy hors d’oeuvres menu was delicious, the setup was beautiful, and everyone loved the food. Corrie was wonderful to work with. She was very communicative, prompt, and accommodating, and the menu she created for us was perfect. I could not recommend Café de Fleur enough for a group like ours!

Was in Auburn attending a swim meet and a group of us went to this restaurant to enjoy some French food. The restaurant is on the small side, and unassuming, located next to a fitness place in a strip mall. They have a modest number of tables, but are able to easily handle groups of six or maybe more, or just two if you want something intimate. They have a decent selection of wines, ranging from affordable red and white choices by the glass as well as some very nice bottles. The selection of wines is not huge, but offers enough variety so that everybody can find something they want. Started with the escargot, which was tasty. I had the beef fillet, which had a very nice peppery sauce, and it was quite well prepared. The steak was slightly overcooked from the way I ordered it, but not enough to be a bother. Because all of their potato dishes, apparently without exception, employ chicken stock, I was not able to eat them, so I ordered some broccolini instead. The broccolini was tasty but overcooked, and that made it a bit less enjoyable. My girlfriend got the salmon, which she said was excellent, and properly cooked. Tried to order the French onion soup, which specifically said on the menu was made with beef stock, which is the way it should be done, but upon inquiring, found out that they also added chicken broth to that as well, which they probably should put on the menu. This is a trend I’ve noticed at even some nice French restaurants, where they are not using the traditional beef stock method, but rather chicken broth instead. I guess it still gives a good mouth feel, but saves money. Got a citrus sorbet for dessert, which they make fresh in the restaurant, and it was very good! French cuisine is definitely a specialty, so you won’t find it everywhere. If you find yourself in Auburn, this restaurant is definitely worth checking out. The service was exceptional. Friendly, informed, and engaging without being smothering. Good job!
