Fodor's Review:

If you're in the mood to dress up, this is the elegant, sophisticated restaurant at which to do it. Everything is taken very seriously here. Starched napery and impeccable service complement the blue bay view. Lunch includes chilled, spicy mango soup, salads, and grilled seafood, and slightly gentler prices. The dinner menu showcases really serious food: beef fillet with a tamarind glaze and tempura vegetables, saddle of lamb from the Pyrenees, served with date fritters, orange glazed grouper in a potato crust, and black truffle veal chop cooked in a sea-salt crust: are you salivating? There's a EUR 43 buffet brunch on Sunday.

Our group of six chose Le Gaiac to celebrate a 10th wedding anniversary. The atmosphere is elegant and the staff very accomodating. However, after the first bite of the entrees, we all agreed that the food was horrendous. I could not tell what I was eating and my first reaction was how to get rid of it. Needless to say that for $1200 we were extremely disappointed in the meal.

Best meal on STB. The service was very good and the food was amazing. And, on top of that, the artistic presentation of the food was unbelieveable. I really didn't want to take that first bite of any course because the presentation was so beautiful.
