I was looking forward to Anniversary brunch here BUT very disappointed in food quality ! Eggs Benedict was nice but Petit Dejeuner was not to 5 stars quality (croissant was dry not buttery at all, shaved ham was dry, one boiled egg was cold - the only fresh item on my plate was half avocado). Place was clean and well sanitized.
Overall OVER PRICE !! Plus having to pay $32 for a valet parking where I could just park my car myself.
One great thing from my experience to this place was SERVICE. Everyone there was very friendly.

One of the best places for breakfast. I highly recommend the eggs Benedict with the house special potatoes and sourdough toast. The omelette is great as well.

2nd time. 1st time was about 4yrs ago. At that time my then 13 year old son said, "There are two restaurants that have made me smile, Per Se and LaCroix." So post-covid, with an older but wiser son in tow, we checked LaCroix out. Were they all that, post-covid with 4 years of maturation under the belt?
I must say yes even with a new chef, LaCroix delivered. Culinary technique? Check. Creativity? Check. Bang for the buck? CHECK!
We had dined at Gabriel Kreuther's in NYC a few days before. While GK's best surpassed Lacroix (smoked sauerkraut with sturgeon and aged duck breast. Best duck breast ever!), I must say LaCroix just slays it in terms of area under the curve. Every dish was very good to awesome.
At $155 per 6 courses compared to $255 at GK, LaCroix wins. Mind you, GK is no slouch. With Manhattan pricing in mind, it was worthwhile. However. I must give the overall value to LaCroix.
Mind you, I have not been to Parc. Vernick, etc. in Philly. However, I would be perfectly happy to go to LaCroix again and again.

We had an absolutely delicious dining experience at Lacroix! All of the servers and staff were very attentive, friendly and went above and beyond to make this birthday dinner incredibly happy and memorable. Every dish was delicious and unique, and at the end of the meal we were given yummy boxes of sweets as well as a champagne cotton candy. They all went out of their way to make the dinner an amazing experience for us all. Two of our party said it was the best dinner they had ever had. Thank you to the terrific staff and chef for such a perfect dining celebration!!

Amazing food! Each dish was delicious. Starting with creamy perfectly salted butter. The watercress strawberry salad was perfectly complemented by a creamy dressing. The soup was creamy and a bit heavy. However, the basted egg was a fabulous addition and the baguette was perfectly toasted to be crispy on the outside and soft on the inside!
The salmon and sorrel was amazing. The salmon was moist and succulent with a perfectly crisp! The beetroot sandwiches was the most original flavor. The textures and smokiness was unforgettable.
Overall one of the best meals of my travels and we will be returning for dinner during our short trip. Reservations made!

On May 1 I had the one of my best overall dining experiences at Lacroix. I was celebrating my anniversary so I was hoping that I would not be disappointed. The ambiance was fantastic, from early evening to sunset what a nice view to be overlooking Rittenhouse Square. Every course of my 6 course meal left one wanting for more. The service was impeccable, complimenting very well the ambiance and food. A small adjustment in the menu was made to recognize my anniversary which left me totally impressed. Finally, I would like to recognize Jamie, Joshua, Tim, and Max. They were the team that made my meal memorable and ensured that I will dine here again.

This top notch restaurant inside a 5-star Rittenhouse Hotel is full of amazing experience. The servers are super attentive, very caring, and overall food taste matches the expectation - I especially LOVED the A5 Wagyu entree with sliced fresh black truffle along with fresh wasabi. It was cooked to a perfection and had a nice balance with wasabi, truffle slices and the sauce. One of the best wagyu I have had so far. Desserts were all wonderful too. I loved how each tasted and enjoyed every bite of them! ????
I also loved how private I felt throughout my dining experience.
I had chef's selection with 6 courses including the dessert priced at $145/pp.
The restaurant and hotel interiors are elegant and pleasing to look at.
The hotel offers a valet parking for $32 (overnight at $60), but if you get your ticket validated you get $12 discount, FYI.
I would certainly come back to this place again.

Brunch Extraordinaire! I came with my wife for an anniversary brunch. They were very accommodating. The staff is extremely well trained that certainly elevated our experience. They paid very close attention to finest details, such as I saw a staff member making neighboring table while placing glass not only he perfected placement of the silverware, he went through fine detail to check glass for any fingerprints as well. Apart from the service, food itself also deserves raging reviews of 5 stars. The chef accommodated my vegetarian request, and prepared dishes that were finger liking delicious. It was very peaceful fine dining experience in middle of the city. #VeggieAbroad
