Have been to Folie several times now. The decor is modern and neat. Haven't had food like this in Lafayette since the Maize days. Service is professional and warm. Can't recommend this place enough!!!
This place has really great food. The trend for a lot of other places seem to be over-seasoning their food -- typically the thing to do when heavy drinking is involved, or covering for the lack of freshness in ingredients/fish/etc. Folie seasons their food just right and the food accompanies their drink menu very well. We really liked how they prepared their fish and seafood-- not overcooked, not over-seasoned, and very fresh; generally difficult to find even in larger cities like Chicago. A real gem here in the Lafayette area... keep up the great work!
The most amazing dining experience!! Every course was perfection. The atmosphere, the wine, the service, all world-class. The food is so good, I get emotional. Can't wait to go back!
We spent a wonderful evening enjoying the atmosphere, eating, and enjoying the libations. It's a hands down simple answer of yes, you should visit Folie. The question is how quickly can you drive down there? Be sure to set up a reservation and if you have a special event, inform them ahead of time.
Our food ranged from duck confit (which was one of the best meals that my wife and I have ever had) to dry aged steak that was so tender and melt in your mouth you might believe it was butter. The cocktail and wine selection is generous and also approachable. With over 30 different wines on the list, it's nice to have options that stray away from the other locales save perhaps Cellar 422.
Seems to be the destination in Lafayette for fine dining. Efficient menu, good cocktail selections. Pricing feels about 10-15% higher than I would expect, but that may be intentional to get their desired customers. We toured the menu, each having one item from each section. Saffron Risotto was particularly memorable. Service was excellent and the staff really knew their stuff. Two minor issues on our visit: The poached lobster atop the Monkfish was over, and the sauternes ordered with desert was served at room temperature. Still very impressed, and we will return.
Our first dining experience at Folie was on our anniversary this year in September. Everything from the decor to the service was impeccable. The servers are attentive, quick, and accommodating. They have done a good job finding people that fit the high-end look and feel of this location. The restaurant has faint remnants of what was Kokoro and I am sure that Tony would be proud to see his favorite place in great hands, being renovated and turned into something almost artistic.
