Vermilion Restaurant Guide

A French cuisine has existed at this location for 37 years! We serve Haute Cuisine meaning food that is prepared in an elegant or elaborate manner; the very finest food, prepared perfectly. The French word haute translates as high or superior, cuisine as cooking. We source our food from local artisan farms to nationally acclaimed purveyors of lamb, beef, seafood and specialty foods such as truffles. We focus on seasonal food items for our weekly specials; such has Maryland soft shell crabs, Alaskan King salmon, Truffles, Ohio sweet corn, peaches & raspberries and other such items. If it is fresh and in season we use it. Two wine lists make up our wine program at Chez François both are award winning. Our regular wine list has over 300 wines listed and our Captain's List has over 600 listed. We focus our lists on French and American wines but we also span the globe for outstanding wines. Our service staff is well trained and unobtrusive. We want our service to be friendly, without attitude, knowledgeable and organized. Most of our staff have worked at Chez François for over 5 years if not longer. We hope to see you soon!
