The Green Gateau

TLDR: Enjoy the entrees, go somewhere else for dessert. Great atmosphere, pleasant service, clean bathrooms, extensive menu. The entrees are reasonably priced for their size and quality of ingredients. I had the chicken gorgonzola pasta. It came quickly, was great, and tasty. However, a tiny slice of carrot cake cost $9! Felt like a ripoff. See photo with fork for size comparison. Would have given 5 stars if the slice had been at least 50% bigger.

Had a wonderful evening at the Green Gateau to celebrate our late anniversary. Service was great, the food was even better. Love that they offer special menu options seasonally and we were able to try a seasonal appetizer, almond crusted Brie with pears and grapes that was so yummy. Every time we come here we get appetizers, entres, and stay for dessert because everything is so delicious. The only issue we ever have here is that the space is very small, but for two people it's no issue. If you have a larger party, it can sometimes feel cramped. We'll definitely be coming back soon.

As a previous server my review might be a bit overly critical of the service. Our server Mia was great in terms of attention but our table was crowded with plates. A great server knows you never leave empty handed. The atmosphere was gorgeous. Loved it. And the staff said hello amd smiled and were very welcoming. The food was mediocre. I had high expectations but it was just good. My husband got the black and blue ribeye, it was just crumbles on top, rather bland. I would've thought a blue cheese sauce. My daughter's chicken cordon blue crepes were delicious. My steak and mushrooms was good, but I was expecting more or bigger mushrooms. I only saw 3 slices. The potatoes were... boring. Sorry for the long review, but with how gorgeous the atmosphere i was surprised by the food not being AW

Companion ordered the beef. Wellington beef was tough. Wellington was deflated meaning it had sat around for a while, barely warm. One soup was served while the other was not had to ask for it to be warmed up and then get another bowl for the companion soup was good with the bisque. Search with a nice croissant. The main course was a seafood course mediocre at best dessert was good service average to subpar and keep finding the waitress and flagging her down nice atmosphere white tablecloth restaurant reservations required parking sketchy very small lot didn’t wanna trust my car going into it parked in the city lot and a halfway

Green Gateau is very clever in decor and use of space. The tables are spaced enough from each other, but the noise level was such that we could not hear each other at our table. Our reservation was lost, a table quickly put together. The service was very slow. Other tables came, ate, paid, and left while we slowly made it through a 2 hours lunch. The food was okay, not great. I had a salad with salmon. It was ok. Well and Good in Lincoln is the best place for that. I had high expectation for Green Gateau and sadly disappointed.
