Mirbeau Lobby - Skaneateles

The filet was the best I've ever tasted! The service could use some improvement, but everything else was wonderful!

The atmosphere is wonderful, featuring a lovely water garden. Unfortunately, the food was just average. The risotto was overwhelmed by a bitter olive oil flavor, and it had a watery texture with a bit of crunch. The taste was quite lacking. The hake was acceptable but slightly overcooked.

To finish off my meal, I indulged in a dessert called the hokey pokey, and yes, I did mix it all up! The hokey pokey was the perfect finish, complementing the earlier dishes beautifully. It was satisfying and left me feeling truly happy. The next time I’m in the area, I’ll definitely return to try more items from the menu. Additionally, the bartender was attentive, engaging, and knowledgeable, which made the dining experience even better.

Our reservation ran late and there was mixup on out table as we were to be seated. We were not upset with the delay, but both the hostess and our server (Ashley) were apologized to profusely both before and after we were seated. We sat outside next to the pond, a lovely place to be. Our server was very helpful with our food selection. My wife had the scallops which she enjoyed. I seldom order beef out, and the filet mignon I ordered did not disappoint. We were generously comped for our delayed seating which we never expected. Definitely would go back.

My wife and I had a delightful dinner this evening here at Mirbeau. We were greeted by Sarah, a wonderful hostess that seated us in a quite area of the dining room. Our waiter George was very polite and attended to our needs in a very professional manner. The food was fabulous. The atmosphere was charming. After supper Sarah showed us all around and made us feel right at home. Needless to say we will definitely return again and again. So if you are in Skaneateles and have a few extra bucks in your pocket we’ll more then a few extra bucks) you have to try it. Splurge and enjoy!!
