They consistantly have been an excellent restaurant. I recommend their ostrich / emu appetizer ( they were both special appetizers the last few times I was their ), and all of their duck entrees - they are one of the few restaurants that can properly prepare duck.

Although I have eaten here only once, I was a sales rep for a meat and seafood distributor and know first-hand the chef bought only the best. If it was not right, it went back to the supplier-no argument. Dine here and enjoy!

I was a little disappointed in this restaurant. I expected innovative dishes--or at least extremely tasty creations--and each dish was just kind of ordinary. The duck was good, but not outstanding; I've had much better lamb elsewhere; and the fish was just okay. The soup was excellent, but the desserts were unremarkable. All in all, everything just seemed a little tired. Our total bill was ~$50 p/p for dinner, including wine.

I've been eating at 'The Black Sheep' since 1977; the food standard has never changed. Best value is the patio 'Preset Menue' Sunday to Thursday-this is only served on the patio from ~ June thru October. Service is the best I've had over the years-that has also not changed.!

As the name implies this "Black Sheep" does not go along with the rest of the "family" of stuffy French resturants. The dress is casual and the cusine is surperb! The service was absolutely flawless! The water glass was never empty, neither was the bread plate! All bread rolls were delivered HOT! Our waitress, Jill, was excellent and very knowledgable on both food and wine. The meal had outstanding presentation -- a great compliment of color and textures. The sauces were very light--not like the typical heavy, rich sauces I have come to associate with French cusine. I had the Chicken Breast and Prawns that came in a Conac sauce. Don't worry about the alcohol content,the sauces are so lite that there is really not much to be concerned about! My wife had the Salmon with Lobster medalions, which she said was also excellent. For dessert, I had the Bananas Foster. It was very good, but I have had better desserts. My wife reported the same with her choice--Decadance. All ... more

I have eaten here several times over the last three years and the food is still as good as it was when I first came. I have dined wearing jeans and a sweater, although many people choose to go more formally. Excellent Duck dishes, usually good appetizers, with a menu that changes to reflect availability. Most desserts are made w/ alcohol. This has been an issue w/ some of my friends who do not care for the taste
