We went to bistro maison for a birthday dinner, the main dishes were good, duck confit and pork chop were tasty and tender but nothing special(we have had better at... read more several restaurants). We had ordered the white truffle fondue which i was excited about, truffle anything is good, the flavor was good but the fondue was barely warm and the accompanying ham and potatoes were fresh from the fridge cold, even if the fondue had been hot, it wouldn’t have offset the coldness of the ham and potatoes . When we told the server we weren’t fond of the dish and it was all too cold to be acceptable we were asked if we had ever had fondue before, yes but you serve the accompaniments room temp so the cheese can warm it and the fondue doesn’t become a cold glob. They offered to warm it more but, the experience was kind of ruined. All of the servers and staff were super friendly and helpful except one who was a bit snotty(refer back to the “have you eve had fondue before?” But with a sneer.
I could have reflected her service in the tip, but apparently everyone just helps as needed and since everyone else was nice and helpful i felt a good tip was called for
