Located on Montgomery Street in Syracuse, L'Adour offers a complete experience in gourmet French cuisine in an elegant, refined ambience.
Named after the L'Adour River in southwestern France, the restaurant offers a host of classic Parisian and Southwestern specialties, accompanied by a thoughtful selection of choice wines. You can stop by L'Adour for breakfast, which is served from 8 am to 11 pm, Monday through Friday, and feast on the hearty spread that Chefs Yann Guigné and Alexia Falcone lay out for you. From the classic French toast to the delectable Belgian Waffle which is served with a blueberry, or an apple-cinnamon compote, there's plenty here to suit even the most discerning of palates. You can also try the freshly baked pastry basket, the immensely popular French Cheese Platter and round it off with eggs, poached or in a three-egg omelet. Saturdays and Sundays see L'Adour hosting their legendary brunches from 8 am until 2 pm, where you can try the daily specials or even opt for oysters on the half-shell if you're feeling particularly indulgent. The Black Angus ground steak, which is topped with sunny side eggs, French fries and greens, comes highly recommended and is quite a meal in itself. And if you're too flummoxed by all that L'Adour has to offer, simply opt for the Brunch Platter which has a little bit of everything!
Lunch at L'Adour is a spread of nourishing soups, crisp salads and delicious entrees. You can start with the famous Foie Gras which is served on toasted brioche, follow it with a hearty forest mushroom and bacon omelet or even opt for the baguette sandwiches and a serving of French fries. Dessert options include the delicate vanilla crème brûlée, a more opulent chocolate marquise in a light coffee sauce or the exotic flambéed Orange Crepe Suzette. For those special weekend dinners with the family, you can also try the Fine Dining alternative that L'Adour offers on Saturday evenings between 5.30 pm and 8.30 pm. The food here is as exotic as the upscale ambience of the dedicated area located on the higher level. Starters include the Duck Carpaccio which is drizzled over with Walnut oil and Comté cheese shavings which, with its astounding blend of flavors, is an epicurean's delight. For mains, you can choose from the fish or meat options or try the tasting menu for $69 per person, if you can't make up your mind. Add a wine paring for $30, per person and voila! you are presented with one of the most amazing dining experiences in the whole of New York!
The restaurant also offers a bistro menu where you can try grilled specialties like the beef tenderloin, the salmon and the swordfish or opt for the mini-kebab platter and top it with your favorite sauce. The wine list is carefully elected keeping in mind the delicate flavors of the food and you can also opt for some of their interesting cocktails to accompany your meal.
If you happen to be in Syracuse in November, don't forget to visit L'Adour for the Beaujolais Nouveau, which is one of the most eagerly awaited food and wine events in the region. The immense popularity of the restaurant warrants that you make your reservations well in advance.
