They were doing them when we were there in December..$36. Also as usual, a few optional entrees available for an upcharge. Attached Images "We are tied to the ocean.

Carol_Hill OP Traveler OP Carol_Hill Traveler Joined: Aug 2000 Posts: 84,737 Likes: 42 Central Florida! gomer and Linka--Thanks. Hopefully someone who has been there this year can confirm if they are still doing it. Linda--I think it was English one side and French the other side? Interestingly, as of November 2022, it looks to be virtually the same menu as June 2022, which seems surprising, since it's a chalkboard menu. Carol Hill

I was lazy and grabbed the first picture I could find. It is indeed French on one side, English on the other. I speak/read just enough French to get into trouble. "We are tied to the ocean.

Smaller portions, so we can actually eat it all. Carol Hill

I have looked at their website, and it appears to be a totally new menu, and I didn't see anything about fixed prices. You could email them at: info@laltro.lu.

The current pricing is $39. Be Happy! Simply because you deserve to be. 😁

No extra % added. Was very good. Had the fried mozzarella and grape tomatoes with a balsomic glaze, hubby had the tuna carpaccio. We both had the fish pot and the chocolate mouse with coconut. All delicious.

We had a mixed scallop and shrimp in leek sauce. It was excellent. The service was very good. I don't have the picture of this computer, but will look.

My food the first 2 visits was really outstanding. I feel it has slipped a little more recently, but is still my favorite restaurant in Jordan Village. The staff and ambiance are great.

Main course was pork tenderloin which was tender and flavorful. Came with a side of root vegetables and potatoes el-gratin. Nice fresh made apple tart was a delightful conclusion. Great addition to the Jordan Village dining choice. CHICSTERSUN Palm City, Florida
