Detente Restaurant And Wine Bar

We dined here three weeks ago to celebrate our 10th anniversary, and unfortunately, it was a disappointment. While the service was excellent, the food left much to be desired. The highlight was a delicious peach salad, but things took a turn after that. The bread we had afterward was bland and lacking in taste. From that point on, our experience declined. I ordered the halibut and my husband had the sea bass, both of which were flavorless. We left feeling quite disappointed. Perhaps it was just an off night for the kitchen. Our bill came to over $100 per person.

The food here was quite good! The outdoor ambiance is pleasant, although there were a few mosquitoes. Just remember to bring some bug spray if you choose to sit outside! They offer complimentary bread at the table, so you might want to skip the cornbread—even though it was delicious, haha. Overall, I'd rate the food a 5, the service a 5, and the atmosphere a 5!

The service was impeccable. The food was disappointing. They serve bread with flavorless oil that did nothing for the bread. I ordered the pork which had a beautiful sear but was tough and difficult to cut and chew. The fennel risotto had no fennel flavor, just the tallegio and there were very hard chunks of something like a root vegetable?! In general the flavors were incompatible. And the brown butter cake was delicious but the fruit was tossed with citrus (assuming grapefruit which I can’t stand) so I left the beautiful fruit on the plate. My husband truly enjoyed the perfectly cooked sea bass and farro and I agree, were delicious! He also enjoyed the blueberry buttermilk bread pudding. I tasted it but did not enjoy. Definitely different flavor profiles all over that unfortunately, will not bring me back.

Excellent food. Comfortable seating upstairs. Wait staff couldn't have been more attentive. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $50–100 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
