Touché

I had the pleasure of returning to Touché for a second visit on Saturday evening, and once again, the experience was exceptional. It’s not uncommon for a new restaurant to impress the first time, only to fall short on subsequent visits. Touché, however, proves to be a welcome exception. Their continued commitment to quality, creativity, and classic French influences remains evident in every aspect of the dining experience. Several days before our reservation, I received a courteous text from the charming and attentive hostess, Bridgette, requesting details about the members of my dining party, including names and dietary restrictions. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by name and seated at a table adorned with a personalized name card—an unnecessary but thoughtful and memorable gestur

I’ve been twice now. Once to enjoy the three course meal and a second for the burger. Both times were amazing. The burger is hands down one of if not the best burger in Syracuse (RIP pre covid Otro Cinco). And Syracuse has good burgers. The Touche burger is one of a kind. Cocktails are insane as well.

We just had an absolutely exceptional meal that rivals much of what we just ate on a recent vacation in France. Across the board, the dishes were thoughtful, cooked perfectly, with unique flavor combinations. If you go for dinner, dessert is a must, their pastry chef is a master of her craft. And of cours

This was our second visit to Touché for dinner service, and I'm extremely happy we decided to return. We were admittedly a tad disappointed with our first over the Winter after having high hopes & expectations, but this latest visit was fully redeeming. Their summer menu highlights the available local produce really well. We had just returned from a trip to France, and can genuinely say that these dishes stood up in quality, thoughtfulness and complexity to most of what we had there. The gnocchi and seafood starters both had vibrant, fresh flavors. All dishes were well-composed and cooked perfectly, including and especially the dry-aged NY strip steak, which was incredibly tender and accompanied by sauce and sides that accentuated and didn't overpower the meat's flavor and quality.
