Really nice looking restaurant and a wonderful value for the quality of the food. Altough we didn't see anyone in shorts we did see that all of the entrees were under $23. We'll be back.

Two for lunch, lured in by the pork belly sandwich. One of us ordered it, the other ordered the mahi mahi sandwich. When the food arrived, the mahi sandwich was a cold mahi mahi salad (like a tuna salad, only fishier)--totally unexpected, not what we wanted, and not good. We left most of that sandwich and split the other. We paid and then told the waitress that she might want to let people know, since this will happen quite a bit with only four sandwiches on the menu, that it was a mahi salad, a cold salad. In a very snotty tone, she told me that she would have told me it was cold if I'd asked. We clearly, having paid and tipped, weren't sending anything back or looking for anything for free. Her attitude sealed the deal. We'll never go back to this restaurant. It is a shame, as the pork belly was pretty good and the sandwich bread was superior. I love to support neighborhood joints, but there are too many choices to put up with a misleading menu and a poor attitude.

I've eaten here about 20 times since it opened, and have mostly been very impressed by the kitchen, which serves high-quality, market-based meals that are just creative enough and fairly priced. The service was never a strong point, but reasonably well-meaning and semi-attentive. But last time, I and my companions were infuriated by an overwhelmed, disrespectful and argumentative waiter. Other tables were having a hard time as well. A well-dressed -- owner, maitre d? strutted around the floor offering no acknowledgement to diners or help to spacey, rude waitstaff. No hello when you walk in, or good by when you leave. Well, goodbye!

recent dinner was suprisingly poor quality food. The sweetbreads app was mushy and the sweetbreads barely identifiable. The lamb and accompaniments were cold and tasteless. The coffee was cold and tasted like yesterdays. The service was friendly but very slow considering that the place was essentially empty. Don't bother

fried scallions? ingenious! and who knew ricotta fritters would make such a great dessert? i've already mapped out my next time @ belcourt: italian iced tea cocktail, followed by wine and the charcuterie plate for dinner! p.s. i found the fancy italian hand-dryers rather cool :)

We enjoyed a relaxed and extensive celebratory meal to mark our big anniversary and calculated that over the years, this was our seventh visit. We started with plump fresh oysters, moved on to carefully prepared meats as mains, and ended with smooth chocolate mousse and assorted cheeses to complete our festivities. The wine was a nice choice at a reasonable price. Yes, there was a minor glitsch caused by obsolete menus having been presented to some in our party, but the management offered, as compensation (considering also that it was our anniversary), a very generous waiver of our meal charge. Of course, we look forward to returning soon.

My husband and I have lived in this neighborhood for years and only recently tried Belcourt. And we're smitten! Reading some of the reviews about poor service makes me wonder if we went to the same place. Our server was amazing. Helpful, friendly and diligent. The food - especially the biscuits! - was unique and delicious. This place is a new staple for us.
