    Decided to try La Belle Helene for the first time during restaurant week and made a 5:15 reservation to have an anniversary dinner prior to the 7:00 Hamilton show. We weren’t seated until about 5:30 after we were first told tables were still being cleared off and then that they were waiting on clean dishes. We ordered Oeufs Mimosa and Bouchée à la Reine for appetizers, and the restaurant was out of caviar which we were okay with. We ordered the Salmon a la Plancha and Bouef Bourguigon for entrees. Our appetizers were mixed up with the table next to us and we also were approached with the entrees of the table next to us. At about 6:40 our server came and told us she basically forgot about us and the delay of food was her fault. We ordered our desserts to go and told her we had a show to get to at 7 just as the table next to us. We received our food at 6:50 and were unable to enjoy it fully as we were now late to the show. We received the check and were disappointed to see that we were not even comped for our drinks (ordered a glass of Prosecco each) or given an additional apology. Overall, the experience was poor and the food could not be thoroughly enjoyed, and I wouldn’t say that it would be worth going and paying regular price for.

    Waited 45 minutes for our 1pm reservation. Not sure if it was a staffing problem or lack of organization, but waiting that long for a reservation was ridiculous.

    My daughter and I went for brunch. They must've been short staffed in the kitchen. Our server apologized twice for the late food. We had tickets to a musical, so we paid ahead of time and then quickly ate our food. Food is always phenomenal, but I don't know what happened in the kitchen

    We just returned from France a month ago. The quality of the pastries and omelettes approximated the freshness and taste we experienced there. Would 100% go back again.

    Ambiance is wonderful - love the high ceilings, chandeliers, and tiled flooring. Waitstaff was friendly, attentive, and helpful. Food was subpar. Highly unimpressed with the quality of food to value ratio. The croissants were bland, chocolate croissant wasn't fully baked, and overall, just didn't think the food lived up to the standards of the restaurant.

    This was our second visit and this time we bought friends for a pre-theatre dinner. The food was delicious and the portions were the right size. It was a little noisy by the bar so we took a table further in which was perfect. Our server was also friendly, helpful, and efficient.

    Horrible experience. Cold food, took forever. Waitress was attentive some of the time but we had to wave her down several times. Restaurant staff seemed annoyed about something 🤷🏻‍♀️
