    Presume people like it due to the charm of the owner however we found the food average at best and the service pleasant but unprofessional. It felt tired. Won’t be returning.

    Visited for the first time to celebrate our anniversary and will definitely be back. From the appetizers to the main courses to the desserts - and the incredible fresh bread - everything was truly delectable. The cocktails were also very tasty and a generous pour. Reasonably priced for a fine dining experience and attentive service. Highly recommend.

    Everything about our experience was outstanding. The owner warmly greeted us and made us feel welcome like we were guests in his home. The server was immediately present with water and fresh warm bread. Cocktails were original and delicious. The menu offered so many excellent fresh options it was hard to choose. We were not disappointed whether the salmon Wellington or fresh scallops that melt in your mouth. Portions were generous. We waited for the dessert menu and they surprised us with a complementary dessert assortment. So perfect to end a great meal. We weren’t rushed. Timing was just right. All support team was gracious and proactive. Never had to ask for water to be refilled. They anticipated our needs. A charming intimate venue for great food and a relaxing dining experience. Enjoy.

    More than worth the drive from DC to this fabulous French, European emrestaurant in Vienna. Amazing entrees, had a fantastic spinach and mushroom soup. Wine selection is superb and will compliment any budget. Wait staff is professional, customer oriented and articulate about the menu.
