D'floret in Lambertville - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

This restaurant is one of the worst I've been to. It is way too expensive for what it offers.i would rather go to a fast food restaurant where I expect the food to be bad.

Wonderful dinner experience. Food was excellent. Service was attentive. Great ambience! Highly recommend!

Reserve early to ensure one of only a handful of tables at this fabulous, chef owned bistro which is not only BYOB but only accepts cash. Food was fabulous and service snappy. So many happy faces around us. You’ll smile too.

Best restaurant in Bucks & Hunterdon counties and one of the best in the entire Philadelphia to Princeton area!

An all over the place time. The food itself was very good and the gnocchi and the tortellini appetizers were especially fantastic.BYOB is a plus too. To be fair about our time, they are about to undergo some serious much needed renovations. The seating and setting are not particularly comfortable and the noise level on a busy Friday night made regular conversation difficult. The service while friendly was not very attentive for a place this small. Empty wine bottles never cleared we had to keep asking for water and for an ice bucket. I'd like to try again on maybe a Thursday night when renovations are made. The food warrants another try.

I am giving one star only because I cannot give zero stars. Quite simply, after waiting more than an hour and a half for our dinner, during which time we were repeatedly assured that it would be out "soon", we decided to leave. When the chef/owner, cooking in an open kitchen, was informed, we could hear him screaming about what ungrateful diners we are. As we politely made our way to the door, the chef angrily confronted us pushing a plate into our faces containing partially grilled pork, scolded us that good food takes time, and that we should go eat McDonald's. It was so bizarre.

Small quaint spot with only about ten tables. One chef makes all of the food fresh to order and he truly cares and is maticulous about every dish. He is a master at his craft. The flavors in the food were amazing! It is also BYOB which is nice! Don't pass up on this amazing place!

April 2024 Update - Have been here several times since last review two years ago but just had to update to say it remains one of the best restaurants in the area. Gnocchi and Tortellini appetizers were to perfection and the Halibut and Perch fish entrees were beyond delicious. It's nice to eat somewhere repeatedly and know ahead of time the meal will be stellar. June 2022 update - Second time here and once again, everything was excellent! Four of us enjoyed five appetizers, four entrees, and three desserts ...all of which were perfectly prepared and wonderfully delicious. Also ate outside this time and the patio just adds to the great meal and stellar service. April 2022 - My only regret in dining at D'Floret was being so distracted by the great food, that I forgot to take photos! First time visiting was this past Friday. We had a 6:00 reservation and were seated promptly upon arrival. (I'd definitely recommend reservations). Our two appetizers were Gnocchi and a Wild Mushroom Lobster tart - both excellent, best gnocchi I've ever had. And being indulgent, we also had a Foie Gras which was equally great. Our mains were a Seared Ahi Tuna, cooked to perfection, and Faro Island Salmon over Creamed Spinach which again, was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Promising ourselves we'd skip dessert proved futile and the Chocolate Royale on a bed of Hazelnut Praline disappeared in what had to be under a minute! Delicious! A new favorite eatery for us, we'll be back ... Soon!

Dennis and Estella are the nicest people, the atmosphere is cozy yet classy, and the food is Michelin level. Get the mushroom soup if they have it, the tortellini, and any fish entrees. They also make their own orange flour for their mandarin tart which is incredible. Lo recomiendo.

Amazing experience! Lovely staff and wonderfully delicious!!

Food was fantastic, however being given a reservation at short notice was priceless

LET ME TELL YOU! This place is absolute hidden GEM! French cuisine. One of the best chefs in NJ The food is to die for and I can honestly eat it everyday and could not get enough of. I will definitely come back anytime of the day. To top it off, Estella is the host/owner and is the sweetest lady and also painted the art work on the wall. Check her instagram: EstellaeqART

Intimate and welcoming! An old world European feel in the middle of Lambertville

Amazing food. One of my favorites in Lambertville!

My soup - the special with asparagus - was silky-smooth and the best I've ever had. So was the swordfish with the braised fennel-orange accompaniment, and my husband loved his ribs. The panna cotta was a little stodgy. A gourmet experience for a special occasion, but rather expensive, despite it being BYOB.

This place is a hidden gem! The husband and wife owners are authentic in their cuisine and hospitality. The food is expertly prepared and presented. We will definitely dine with them again.

The highlight of our meal was the crab appetizer.  It was OMG delicious.  The mushroom soup was served luke-warm, I should have asked if that was on purpose.  It was really tasty.  My wild boar was a pleasure to eat.  Same for the red mullet.  If your idea of a good dining out experience is walking out with a large doggy-bag, this is not your place.  Have an app [or dessert] to extend the experience and fill your tummy. Service exceptional.  Slightly tight quarters.  No credit cards.

Always feel like we’re dining in a 5 star restaurant when we are at D’Floret. Estella makes all guests feel like family- she’s so charming. Dennis makes magic with his culinary treats- everything is perfectly seasoned - it’s a feast for the senses! Whenever we bring friends to dine there- it becomes their favorite restaurant too! No need to travel to the city for a Michelin star experience, you can find it Lambertville!

Very intimate and romantic setting at night. Cheerful servers that are perfectly attentive. The entrees are interesting without being too esoteric but far from average. Perfect portion sizes and incredibly fresh and delightfully plated.

Great service. And Helpful. Nice atmosphere. Portions were small but taste was delicious!

D’Floret is a very quaint and elegant restaurant tucked away in Lambertville NJ. Opened and operated by a husband and wife team, the restaurant had an amazing menu with entries that you would not normally find elsewhere. I had the wild boar which was delicious. And if you love desserts, the executive chef I’d also a pastry chef so we had their famous profiteroles- a great way to end the evening. Just an FYI - they only accept cash or check but don’t let this stop you from enjoying this little jewel.

The menu has something for everyone. The food is fresh and expertly prepared. The service was very good.

Definitely my go to favorite when in the area. Stella and Dennis are the best. Warm and welcoming and food is delicious.

This was the first time we were at this restaurant. FYI, they only accept cash or checks. No credit cards. It is also a BYOB. We did have a reservation, but had to wait about 20 minutes for our table. I had the mushroom puff pastry appetizer and bronzini entrée. They were absolutely perfect and delicious! The owner indicated that they have purchased the adjacent building next-door and will be expanding within the next few months for more seating. We will definitely be coming back!

The restaurant has a warm, inviting ambience. We had a lovely, delicious dinner. I had the wild pheasant and my dinner partner had one of the fish dishes - both were excellent, as was the pear tart that we split.

We have been dining at D Floret for a number of years and always enjoyed our meals. We will continue to frequent this establishment for years to come.

My wife and I had a truly memorable experience last night at D’Floret. We have been wanting to dine here for quite some time and were lucky to get a reservation as this is a very limited seating restaurant! Well it was well worth the wait. The ambiance and service were fantastic. The food was quite possibly one of the top meals I’ve had at a restaurant in New Jersey. My wife had the rouget barbet and I had the wild boar. Both were impeccably cooked, seasoned masterfully, and creatively prepared. The gnocchi were rolled to order and cooked with perfection, topped with fresh shaved black truffles really took it over the top. If I could give this place six stars I would!

Our dining experience was stellar. The food was perfectly done (best branzino we ever had -- and we've had plenty); the service was attentive without at all being cloying; the small, homey room was most welcomng; and the pricing was very reasonable. I heartily recommend the restaurant and very much look forward to returning.

My husband took me for my birthday, at the suggestion of his friend who took his wife for her birthday. It was incredibly delicious. We had the tuna tartar and mushroom puff pastry appetizers, they were both outstanding and completely different. The puff pastry was rich and savory while the tartar was chilled and refreshing with a lemon sorbet on top. The entrees where the show stoppers though, wild board and rack of lamb. We both wanted to lick our plates. Eat here, you won't regret it.

Always a great experience. Small, cozy and well run.

Best restaurant in Lambertville and probably within 50 miles. Lovely staff, beautiful food. The tiny place can be really really loud! I just don’t remember this in previous visits. But they are expanding the dining room and of course, eating in the garden is great. Estella runs the front—she’s terrific!

This restaurant is charming, has great food, and wonderful service. It's cliched to say so, but it's a neighborhood gem!

We have wanted to try d'floret for quite some time and finally got around to it. Now sorry we waited so long. The menu leans seafood, and my spouse had a delicious piece of rouget. I was tempted by the sous vide veal chop special. Both were delicious with very nice presentations. The layout encourages discussion between tables, which we enjoyed as well. If you're into decor, this isn't the place for you. For us, the food and atmosphere was enough. If I had to identify one area for improvement, it was the scent of bleach. It might have been coming from the kitchen (and if so, A+ for cleanliness) or in the solution used to clean up tables after customers leave (if so, maybe use steri-san instead?). Either way, better ventilation to pull out the odor would be desirable. There appear to be less than 20 seats in the entire restaurant, so worth considering for a larger group dinner where you can take the whole restaurant.

We came here for my wife’s birthday in August with 6 people we all thought the restaurant was excellent. We came for my Anniversary this past Thursday and was served a $67. veal chop that was so tough it was hard to cut with a steak knife. I told the server about it. She witnessed me trying to saw through tough meat. She did offer me the choice to have something else, but at that time my wife was halfway through her meal and our wine was almost finished, and I was not prepared to wait for a new entree. The server came back and made some excuse about a new supplier. I did expect them to not charge for the substandard chop. My wife did enjoy her fish, and we will probably go back, but the customer service that evening was not ideal.

The Food was fabulous the enviorn,ment was like dropping out of NJ into Europe! We will be definitely returning!

OK food from starters to dessert. Lovely outdoor area and nice staff but the food is just not that great. Starters Pea Soup, the ginger was overdosed creating an an imbalance and hiding the flavor of the peas, the ginger was not fresh and zesty but stale and slightly moldy tasting. Bad start, but another guest had the Gnocchi which was better although over salted. The Cod and Salmon were very good quality but the potatoes where under cooked and hard, the sauces were delicious but again just a little too salty for our palette but overall very nice. The desserts seem to have come from outside, didn't taste homemade and felt industrial. Some quite amazing reviews maybe raised our expectations a little too much but we are determined to find great food outside of NYC, unfortunately the search continues for our party.

Loved d’Floret, a tiny, charming restaurant tucked in a corner of Lambertville. The French-inspired food was fabulous, particularly the fresh sautéed sea scallops and truly generous portion of veal offered that evening. The chocolate Royale with hazelnut praline and chocolate sauce is wonderful! Service was warm and friendly.

Repeat Customer - Food is always excellent, Service is always excellent, Eat Here!

It was a very expensive meal. $80 per person for a salad, entrée and half dessert.

Excellent meal, well prepared and presented. The service was excellent. Since it’s a byob, it’s very reasonable. Minor drawback is the proximity of the other tables. It’s a small space. Definitely save room for dessert.

Excellent food service setting. Couldn’t be better.

Lovely little place, friendly, great service, food was good. Met a very nice couple which made our experience even more enjoyable

As always, chef Dennis always makes meals a delicious experience. In addition his wife Estella is the perfect hostess. The sirloin i had was absolutely perfect. In addition the backyard dining area is a wonderful place to have a wonderful meal.

As always, the food is exceptional, staff wonderful and an exceptional experience.

Beautiful night so ate outside. Courses served at a good pace allowing us to enjoy the evening. Crabcakes and Ahi Tuna excellent

My only complaint was coffee was much too expensive with very small serving and had to pay extra for additional serving of bread. Hard to justify considering the cost of the excellent food Overall loved the food and presentation. Will definitely return

Chef Foy’s D’Floret is a big gem … in a tiny jewel box. He and Estella run a tight ship focusing on best fresh local farm suppliers and delectable finds and efficient gracious service. The rouget fish is a personal favorite …but the other night swordfish popped up as a special. Velvety, moist, fresh, and the most heavenly swordfish with a light handed summery herb touch…and I am not a swordfish or other steaky fish fan as usually dry and flavorless. But Chef Foy hooked and prepared this beauty that had the whole table oohing and ahing to the last bite. Among many lovely restaurants in this area, D’Floret soars above and beyond all expectations. Always a lovely special treat.

Great little spot. Food is very good and it is BYOB. I have been a couple times and it never disappoints.

Our favorite restaurant. Every course is delicious and cooked to perfection.

Awesome dinner where you are always assured a good meal with amazing service!

The food at D’Floret is always delicious and perfectly cooked. I know the majority of the main courses are usually fish but the steak and lamb when they are on the menu are spectacular. I recommend any soup or pasta. Especially the cold pea soup. But it’s a very small restaurant at this time with an open kitchen in the room making for a bad air conditioning system if it’s a hot evening.

Lovely small coveted meal in authentic French cuisine. BYOB! Menu contains daily fresh options focused on fish and vegetables. Homemade pasta was delicious and excellent portions. It is worth the challenge for reservation and a world away from the everyday. Not spacious yet European style dining - cozy, comfy, good service.

Fabulous dinner ALWAYS! Chef Dennis Foye does not disappoint! Every dish was delicious and you know it was prepared with his heart and soul! Thank you!!!

Best dining experience in the area! Great service.

I can’t even put in to words how delicious this meal was. This was an extraordinary dining experience. And the pea soup is out of this world!!

We have been here several times, but this is the first time we sat outside in the garden. As usual…Perfection! Food was delicious. Service was impeccable and it was a beautiful night to celebrate our 38th wedding anniversary.

Great appetizers, great main, great service BUT dessert round profiteroles were not good. Stale as a matter of fact. As everything else was so good, we wanted the chef to be informed, only for him to come out, tell us they were not stale, perhaps over-baked while reheating. No questions, no conversation and he just stormed back in. The whole patio was like what just happened? Too bad chef. Don’t scold your customers.

Quaint restaurant with amazing food and ambiance. The staff made us feel like home and the food was exquisite as was the overall service. Will definitely come back next time in town.

This tiny one room (including the kitchen) elegant restaurant is a special find in Lambertville. The tables are set beautifully with fresh flower bouquets and white tablecloths. The room is decorated with original modern art. The food choices tend to the French palate. The portions were just right. We had an exquisite well seasoned cold green pea soup as an appetizer and then shared two seafood entrees - sauteed shrimp and rouget barbet. Both wonderful and perfectly sized portions. Dessert was a very tasty raspberry tart with ice cream. The restaurant is BYOB and cash only. It was a wonderful meal and equaled any we might find in our home town of NYC.

This is a gem amongst gems. One of the best restaurants in the area. Worth a special trip. If you want a delicious meal, in a gorgeous restaurant, that will have you wanting to come back for more — come here. I’ve visited here several times in the past years and it doesn’t cease to amaze each time. The Gnocchi and it’s sauce are a must try. Chef Foy is a true chef.

A specialty restaurant with personalized service. Homemade Gnocchi and Tortellini were very light and only enhanced but flavor sauces. Desserts were amazing. I have a raspberry tart with a buttery crust that I couldn't get enough of, and I am not a big dessert eater.

Beautiful day to have dinner in their small outdoor patio. Excellent food and attention to the small details were amazing.

Always excellent, best restaurant in Lambertville.

Had the last seating. Very small room . Seats around 28. Noise level is high. They were out of Haddock and steered us to Amber Jack. Portions were small with little accompanying vegetables. Taste was good. One guest had the rack of lamb, which was a much more substantial portion. For what one gets and the total ambience, it's not worth the prices they are asking.

D'Floret was recommended to us, and we were disappointed. My halibut was excellent, as well the accompanying vegetables and mushrooms. My husband's sirloin was more medium than medium rare, as he requested, and not tender. He enjoyed his potatoes. The dessert, profiteroles with chocolate sauce, was mediocre at best, and certainly not worth $12. The service was uneven. We were greeted and seated outside quickly and served water quickly. The entrees took a Long time to come out, because, we were told, they were made to order. Perhaps, but that isn't an excuse for such a wait. The small space indoors was packed when we left, something we would not have been comfortable with.

We brought friends. A perfect experience. Between us we had all 3 fish on the menu. Prepared exquisitely. Crab appetizer wonderful. Profitarols dessert delicious. Ambiance intimate, not loud. We could converse easily.

Quaint restaurant with wonderful service and fantastic food

Our meal at D'floret was absolutely delicious! We started with a puff pastry and mushroom appetizer that was perfectly balanced. I had tortellini for my entree, and it was the best cooked tortellini I've had. My husband got the rack of lamb special, and it totally blew his mind. We shared two desserts that were decedent, yet light. We also dined on their patio which was a pleasant surprise! (Traducido por Google) ¡Nuestra comida en D'floret fue absolutamente deliciosa! Comenzamos con un entrante de hojaldre y champiñones perfectamente equilibrado. Tuve tortellini para mi plato principal, y fue el mejor tortellini cocido que he probado. Mi esposo pidió el costillar de cordero especial, y quedó totalmente alucinado. Compartimos dos postres que eran decadentes, pero ligeros. También cenamos en su patio, ¡lo cual fue una agradable sorpresa!

The food was outstanding with no exceptions. Would recommend to anyone. For those who are gluten free, every entre is made to order and most (if not all) can be made GF. I'm GF and had no problems. I had the Sautéed Tian of Crab as appetizer which is GF and is excellent and he rack of lamb which was OMG on the first bite. Highly recommend to everyone (Traducido por Google) La comida era excepcional sin excepciones. Se lo recomendaría a cualquiera. Para aquellos que no tienen gluten, cada entrada se hace a pedido y la mayoría (si no todos) se pueden preparar sin gluten. Soy novia y no tuve problemas. Tuve el Tian salteado de cangrejo como aperitivo, que es GF y es excelente, y el costillar de cordero, que era Dios mío en el primer bocado. Muy recomendable para todos

It was an amazing experience, the food was fantastic and the cook was super super nice, an amazing place if you want to relax and take your significant other to. It is BYOB but my girlfriend and I don't drink much so it wasn't an issue for us. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! (Traducido por Google) Fue una experiencia increíble, la comida fue fantástica y la cocinera fue súper súper agradable, un lugar increíble si quieres relajarte y llevar a tu pareja. Es BYOB, pero mi novia y yo no bebemos mucho, así que no fue un problema para nosotros. ¡¡¡ALTAMENTE RECOMENDADO!!!

Been wanting to come here for a while and glad we finally did. Perfectly cooked gnocchi and a great lump crab cake started us off, followed by delicious tortellini in a rich cream sauce and large chunks of beautifully seared tuna. Intimately close quarters made us glad it wasn't packed on a weeknight. Will certainly return!

Literally the best meal I have had in a very very long time. We will definitely be back in the future.

The food was fabulous , as always … our favorite restaurant on both sides of the river ! I highly recommend it . If there was a 6th star I would give it !!!!!!

Amazing food!! Best sword fish I have ever had. They had a large party and still accommodated us. The owners are super nice and down to earth. Don’t skip over this local gem!!! (Traducido por Google) ¡¡Comida increíble!! El mejor pez espada que he probado. Tuvieron una gran fiesta y aún así nos acomodaron. Los propietarios son súper agradables y con los pies en la tierra. ¡No te saltes esta joya local!

Lovely ambiance, divine food and outstanding service. Can’t wait to go back!

We dined for my husbands birthday, the service and food was over the top incredible! It’s a cozy restaurant with beautiful artwork.

By far, this is my favorite restaurant in the area! Chef Dennis Foy hits my taste palate spot on with every single mouthwatering bite of every dish he creates!

The food was delicious, truly excellent. Server and waitstaff were attentive, knowledgeable and helpful. Location was close to a parking lot, which was super convenient

Excellent meal as always. Every dish a treat. Such a pleasant place to have dinner - chef, hostess and staff delightful. We always look forward to going back.

We were in New Hope for a couple of days and d’Floret was a recommended place for dinner - and we’re glad we did! What a wonderful, intimate spot for a delicious and interesting dining experience. We were greeted by the wife of the chef/owner who could not be more engaging. She made recommendations for appetizers and dinner which we liked (gnocchi for appetizer and salmon for dinner). Both were served quickly and at the right temperature - most of all, they were delicious! Desert was a chocolate mousse that was perfectly creamy and tasty. This is a place that you should not miss if you’re in the area- bravo!

Delicious food and attentive service at this beautiful intimate space. (Traducido por Google) Deliciosa comida y atento servicio en este hermoso espacio íntimo.

We had fantastic memories of a meal at d'Floret from two years ago and so returned in anticipation of another wonderful meal. We weren't disappointed! Same friendly welcome upon arrival. Restaurant was full, but not in an obnoxious way. Our butternut squash soup was delicious - three different waves of flavor. My son enjoyed the tortellini that he had so fondly remembered from last time and I enjoyed the barbe rouge - a generous portion and paired well with a fennel puree. And finally, my son ordered a dessert and I never order dessert - well, I did, the profiteroles - and oh, what a perfect ending! Just remember that it's BYOB!

Food and overall experience were excellent. The owners are both the back of the house and the front and it shows. Highly recommended.

I am so happy we decided to dine @ d'floret. A chef owned and operated business where his lovely wife is the host/server & artist who supplies the restaurants paintings/décor. The Chef is a pasty chef and chocolatier by trade and wow it really shows. It reminded me of an upscale Manhattan eatery with zero snobbery. The food was executed perfectly and the price for the elevated level of food was worth every penny. Just know that it is BYOB (no corkage fee!) and cash or check only. We enjoyed the puffed pastry with chantarelle mushrooms & cream as well as the crab cake appetizers, SO GOOD!! For mains we dined on the sirloin steak with the tastiest demi glaze and creamiest pomme puree, delightful! We also had the special Fish that was served with fennel puree and a Tuscan bean salad; the fish was crispy on the outside and flaky in the center, and I ate every last bite. Then the star of our meal, the off menu cream puffs stuffed with vanilla bean icecream; the puffs were crispy and light and the perfect accoutrement for the icecream. I will return everytime I'm in the area

The food was amazing. The best food in New Hope/ Lambertville by far.

Me and my girlfriend attended for New Years Eve dinner where we had a wonderful experience. From the first bite to the last we were overwhelmed by the extravagant flavors. The service was inviting and I was grateful for the attention to detail with thorough explanations of every dish, along with recommendations that brought us out of our comfort zone. (Traducido por Google) Mi novia y yo asistimos a la cena de Nochevieja donde tuvimos una experiencia maravillosa. Desde el primer bocado hasta el último quedamos abrumados por los sabores extravagantes. El servicio fue acogedor y agradecí la atención al detalle con explicaciones detalladas de cada plato, junto con recomendaciones que nos sacaron de nuestra zona de confort.

D'floret is up there with the best in NYC. We cpmpared the quality and taste to Bernardin during our recent visit. (Traducido por Google) D'floret está entre los mejores de Nueva York. Comparamos la calidad y el sabor con Bernardin durante nuestra reciente visita.

excellent food and professional service at this charming little place in Lambertville

Outstanding restaurant in town…. love the service and the food is fantastic. Highly recommended. (Traducido por Google) Excelente restaurante en la ciudad…. Me encanta el servicio y la comida es fantástica. Muy recomendable.

Wonderful meal. Our new favorite local restaurant. Can’t wait to visit again.

Always and consistently excellent

D’floret is our favorite restaurant in the area. Tonight we went for our anniversary and as always the food, service and ambience was impeccable! An absolute gem that we recommend to everyone!!!

Highly recommend!!!! This is a small restaurant, so reservations are recommended. The service is great BUT the food is just amazing! I had the salmon and the broccoli rabe and tomatoes served with it was PERFECT! My husband had the steak and loved it. It's a BYOB so don't forget the wine! LOVE THIS PLACE!!!!

My daughter and I have a holiday tradition in the New Hope area and have always enjoyed this restaurant.

We love bringing our friends to this GEM of a restaurant!

Food was delicious! Service was super!

D'Floret is a wonderful place for a special night out. The food was outstanding and every detail was matched with service. We can't wait to return!

Crab and gnocchi appetizer’s were exceptional, lamb main course was the hit, halibut and tortellini were very good .

Thank you for letting me mail you a check. I am mailing it today.

Wonderful food and good service. Reservation must be done way ahead. In a very scenic area.
