"We dined here during our visit to Vermont over the holidays. Great service! The popover was a nice touch; we could have eaten more than one. Pauline 's touted having been named Best Filet Mignon in South Burlington and it probably was, but with a send-up like that, especially after taking care to caution our server no more than medium , it was a let down get it on the far side of medium, bordering on well done. It was not -too- dry, but there was no evidence of it being pepper-encrusted . Maybe their chef was out that evening, or just having a bad day? Still, while this might truly be the Best Filet Mignon in South Burlington , it wasn 't the best I have ever enjoyed, and not worth their $42.00 asking price, IMHO. Great atmosphere and service, but Pauline 's probably wouldn 't be our first choice again."
