We brought a group of 18 early on Saturday evening, July 19, 2008. It was top prices for Princeton but the food of all types was excellent. Wait staff was serviceable to very good. The crab and avocado appetizer was outstanding and the scallop entree the best of its kind that I can recall. The pork loin and chicken dishes... more

I agree with many of the other reviewers that the food at Lahiere is overpriced and not that great, despite the pleasant surroundings. You can do much better at other places in town or in Lawrenceville. But the bar at Lahiere is the best place in town to have a drink before dinner or to meet friends - quiet, comfortable,... more

The crab cakes are my husband's favorite and the... more

“Disappointing” best describes our recent visit there – it’s been nearly 20 years since I last dined at Lahiere’s, and given this Sat. evening experience, I’m betting it will be at least another 20 before we dine there again. Tasteless rack of lamb, bland sides and dismal service were the “fair de jour” for me, while my wife had a... more

My wife and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary here. The food and service were amazing. Prices were very high, but we knew that in advance. Our only complaint was the obnoxious hostess who wanted to seat us at the bar, maybe because we didn't look like one of the upscale Princeton faculty. We would return. more
