"My husband and I opted for the four-course prix fixe menu at $135 per person, which turned out to be a great deal and surprisingly well-priced. After enjoying some of the bread, I felt much better. The brioche was presented in a cube shape; while it could have been softer and more buttery inside, it was still enjoyable. For our first courses, we both had the salad. Each chicory leaf was carefully arranged, with slices of celery root and citrus layered in between, creating a perfect bite along with the soft, creamy cheese at the bottom. For the second course, my husband chose the langoustine (an additional $10) while I had the pike dish. The pike quenelles were like delicate fish cakes served with a rich, savory sauce that was divine. The langoustine was also excellent—I highly recommend both. For our third courses, I had the risotto and my husband had veal sweetbreads. The risotto was not traditional risotto but rather potatoes shaped to resemble it. The flavors were good, and the generous serving of caviar added to the dish, but it would have been better if it had been the real thing. My husband’s veal sweetbreads were incredibly tender and flavorful. For our final courses, my husband had quail and I had venison, which was cooked perfectly to medium rare. We both enjoyed our choices immensely. Even though we were quite full, we managed to save room for dessert—a millefeuille topped with cotton candy, which was a fun twist on a classic dessert. Before we left, our server brought us complimentary chocolate truffles. Presented under a cloche, these truffles were shaped like black truffles but filled with raspberry ganache. I have to say, I was thoroughly impressed by Lacroix. The food execution is world-class, the menu is well thought out, and the prices are comparable to other local favorites like Friday Saturday Sunday and Her Place Supper Club. Dining at Lacroix feels like eating at a genuine 2-star Michelin restaurant. We will happily return again and again."

"I have ordered delivery twice from this place. Both times the food came well packed and without any spills. I also wasn't missing any items. The first time i ordered a shrimp egg roll, wonton egg drop soup, three regular roll special, general tso's chicken combo dinner and orange chicken combo dinner. The shrimp egg roll is absolutely delicious. I would order that over and over again. The wonton egg drop soup is not that great. I wouldn't order it again. The wonton's themselves are really thick. For the rolls i ordered the crunchy spicy kani roll, the spicy crunch shrimp and the shrimp tempura roll. All three were absolutely delicious and filling. Both the general tso's and orange chicken had great flavor but by the time it arrived, it wasn't crispy anymore. I tried to recrisp it in the toaster oven and that didn't work. The second time i ordered fried dumplings, the grasshopper roll, kai roll, shrimp tempura roll, sweetheart roll and stir fried udon with beef. The fried dumplings tasted exactly like the wonton's i had in my soup during my first order. The dumpling skin was too thick and the beef looked and tasted the exact same way as the wontons. I wasn't crazy about them. The grasshopper roll i would order every single time, it was lobster salad, crab meat, shrimp, mango, avocado, asparagus, lettuce wrap, rice paper with avocado and caviar in yuzu wasabi sauce. The lettuce did get a little wilted during transit but it didnt impact the flavor at all. Very delish. The kai roll has spicy tuna, avocado and shrimp tempura inside a green soy paper. The outside has lobster salad and caviar. Another roll that i would order again. Very Very good. My husband ordered the sweet heart roll which was really pretty. Inside it has crab meat, cucumber, avocado, spicy tuna and crunchh wrapped in a pink rice paper topped with raw fresh tuna. I tried it and the tuna was very fresh. This roll is absolutely delicious but should only be ordered if your into raw fish. You can definitely taste it. Lastly, the beef udon. The sauce was very light BUT the flavor was there 100 percent. So delicous, so filling, so flavorful. I think we will certainly be ordering this specific dish again soon. It was that good. Overall we were so much happier with our second order from here. I think going forward we will continue to try different rolls and dishes from the stir fry section. I will absolutely continue to order from this place. i highly recommend it."

"I am writing this review and still in shock and unable to process what happen on last Friday night at our party. Everything was great, food, service, etc. All my friends had a great time until, I assume, it was the restaurant 's manager, came to one of our guests Mark and very rudely demanded that he paid $80 cover charge for drinking alcohol from the water bottle he brought with him. Mark NEVER drinks hard liquor only wine which is what he ordered that night as always. His wife wasn 't feeling well didn 't drink at all! The manager came to them directly, threw an empty water bottle on the table calming he has a video of Mark throwing this bottle in the trash outside of the restaurant!!! This video he showed us had NO image of Mark carrying a bottle in his hands! In any case, the manager 's rudeness, unprofessionalism in the way he handled the situation was outrages. He was yelling and screaming at us, telling us he will call the police. Even if he had a reason which he DID NOT! this situation could have been handled discretely. Instead, he escalated the situation to the point that Mark, his wife and most of our guests were in the verge of tears! All of my friends at the party came to America about 35 years ago, all have successful careers. We all speak Russian, but all immigrated from Ukraine. I don 't know if this person had something against us, but it sure felt like he made personal. We never felt so humiliated and discriminated like we did last night! I was the responsible for any additional charges/issues for the party and they confirmed that with me before the party started. We had multiple birthday parties at Bobby 's before and I was astonished how we were treated for just a pitiful amount of money $80 when we spent way over $1000 that night! Instead of having a great memory of this special evening of my husband 65th birthday all we will remember is the way we were treated and humiliated at the end. It 's a shame! We always enjoy Bobby 's, but after this incident none of us and anyone we know will dine in Bobby 's Deerfield again."
