I wanted to try Gaslight for a while but was hesitant due to the negative reviews I have seen. My experience was very positive and I had none of the problems that have been mentioned. Our server was excellent, very knowledgable and enthusiastic about the menu. She was prompt, attentive and very personable. We were a party of 5, starting off with french onion gratinee, escargot, and steak tartar. The soup was the only thing that left me slightly disappointed as I thought it needed more flavor, the stock was a bit flat. I had the steak frites for my entree. The beef was tender, juicy, and cooked perfectly. The fries were delicious! I liked that the duck confit did not use breast meat; it was much less fatty and the skin was nice and crispy! Considering the low prices the plate sizes were quite substantial, and I finished my meal feeling perfectly satisfied. I will definitely try a specialty cocktail next time; my sister had the manchester mule and it was awesome! I will definitely go back to Gaslight. It seems as though a lot of people like it, as we went on a Monday evening and it was a full house! It did get a little loud but my almost 70 year old father with bad hearing didn't complain a bit, so it was totally bearable. The whole group was very pleased. Free parking is a big plus as well!
