How does L Entrecote work?

You simply tell your waitress how you like your steak cooked: rare, medium, well done, or in the true French style, blue, or extra rare. The waitress then draws a tic-tac-toe like grid on the white paper tablecloth with initials demarking everyone’s choice, so that when you get refills later there is no mistake.

Is Le Relais de l’Entrecôte worth it?

Start your review of Le Relais de l’Entrecôte. My mom and I waited 45 minutes outside, but it was worth it. They only serve steak frites, so if that’s not you, then don’t go. But if it is! Then yes, go! You get two servings of fries and steak cooked to your choosing (I went with rare) and a single serving of salad.
