Troquet is excellent. I took my boyfriend here for his birthday on a cold winter night and everything was fabulous. The service is attentive without being overwhelming, and they are extremely knowledgeable about the menu as well as the extensive wine list. The food and wine are amazing, the pre-pairing of the wines with the food on the menu is very nice but we ordered a bottle and were not disappointed, the server was right on the mark. I didn't get a feeling of the ""turn and burn"" mentality which sometimes permeates restaurants...we were there a very leisurely 2 hrs or so. Also, definitely give the cheese plate a try as opposed to regular dessert. They have about half a dozen choices that you can pick from and present it with little accompaniments. All in all, I think one of Boston's best restaurants.
Pros: everything!!
