La Banane

Banana Split

The restaurant's namesake dessert — a theatrical, generously constructed split with premium ice cream, ripe banana, and rich toppings that justify the entire trip

Plateau de Fruits de Mer

A tiered seafood tower built around local oysters, chilled shellfish, and house sauces — the centerpiece presentation La Banane is best known for

Steak Tartare

A French bistro classic done precisely — hand-chopped beef, sharp seasoning, and the right amount of restraint so the beef stays front and center

French Onion Soup

The bistro standard done with proper depth — a dark, slowly cooked onion broth blanketed under a thick Gruyère crust that holds its structure

Moules Frites

Steamed mussels in a white wine or cream broth alongside crisp frites — a reliable bistro anchor and one of the better value plays on the menu

Oysters

Fresh rotating selections served simply on ice with house mignonette — the bar-menu entry point and a consistent strong suit given the seafood focus

Signature Cocktails

A well-developed cocktail menu that draws its own crowd — precise, spirit-forward drinks that lean French in character without being gimmicky
