We visited during lunch hours and, despite the crowd, expected a reasonable wait, but the food took quite a while to arrive. Unfortunately, the main letdown was the steak. I had ordered it medium-rare, but it arrived well-done and far too tough to enjoy. I also tried the lychee drink, which was marketed as a “nutritional grade B” option, but it was overwhelmingly sweet, more like dessert in a glass than a balanced beverage.

It's been a while since I've last visited Poulēt. We came here for dinner and noticed they have a good variety of dishes to choose from. The chicken aglio olio is a really bad choice. They use angel hair, which gets cooked too easily. I've yet to eat any al dente angel hair; most of the time, it's pretty soggy. It would be better if they used linguine or regular spaghetti. The garlic toast is crispy, and the baguette is cut to the right size. You can't go wrong with truffle fries, as long as they are not soggy. The Lychee Pomme Delight is a delight. There were more lychees in the glass than on top. The homemade lemon tea was just regular, though. The best is definitely the half chicken with Diane sauce. This is the type of sauce that you can never get sick of, no matter how much you eat. However, our two sides, roasted Brussels sprouts and broccoli, as well as the mac and cheese, were both letdowns. The roasted Brussels sprouts and broccoli could be good if they didn't add any sauce to them. Not everyone knows how to appreciate the taste of the sauce. The mac and cheese was just bland. The Salad de Paris could be better if they incorporated a bit more flavorful ingredients besides cherry tomatoes. There were only tiny bits of olives and dried cranberries, making the bland salad just survive on the salad sauce. Overall, I will only come back for their chicken with Diane sauce and opt for safer sides like mashed potato. Their bar bites, like fries and garlic toast, are great with their drinks.
