Excellent service, they really catered to my sisters dietary restrictions. We had a lovely meal and couldn’t have asked for a better service! The tuna tarter I tried was one of the best I’ve had. Highly highly recommend. We also tried the seasonal salad, curry mussels, and the chicken. All delicious!

We has dinner w another couple Sat night. Early, at 6:15 place was rocking, buzzing w this vibrant smiling crowd even then. This was the best dinner we had in the last 10 years. Perfect Mussels, French Onion Soup, Sea Bass Roasted to Perfection, Halibut prepared meticulously in parchment, and some of the best burgers and frites to go with them. Topped off with crazy delicious nutella bignets and we went home in culinary heaven. Keep it up and let us know when you earn your Michelin stars !!

What the cellar is drinking this autumn
Four growers we have been pouring by the glass since the weather turned, and why a Loire cabernet franc belongs beside the steak frites.
