I have been to The French Laundry a few times now. The food is exquisite and the service is very good. It is definitely a “special occasion” restaurant and worth a visit if you can get in (no, unfortunately, I don’t have any good tips for getting in). It is quite expensive but very special. My husband and I both agreed that the first visit was “over the top” but the next couple of visits paled slightly in comparison. Nothing to do with the food itself, but it just didn’t seem as unique anymore. The truffled risotto is unbelievable. They have quite an extensive wine list – the first time I tried viognier was at The French Laundry.
