    Excellent luncheon menu and offerings. Croque Monsieur was very well done. The quiche of the day was more than ample portion and very authentic French preparation. Attentive and courteous service.

    Greeted at the door by the chef, my wife and I were whisked away (cooking pun there…) to the back room of the restaurant. There we were seated and greeted by an attractive server and had our special menu explained to us. We had the choice of escargots, a brief interlude of boeuf bourguignon, and I had the steak frites while my wife enjoyed the confit of duck. We were finished off with a traditional cheese plate with a variety of cheeses from around Europe. All the food items were fabulous and the wine pairings were perfect! I will complain that the portions were oversized for me. We were nearly full from the escargots, and the boeuf was a full dinner portion in itself. The ribeye steak was as the chef explains it “what Americans expect”. I can’t fault him for giving his customers what they want, although I personally would prefer a more authentic experience with a smaller skirt or flank steak and about half the amount of fries. To summarize: go there. Eat. You will not regret a thing!

    Truly the best beef bourgenon we’ve ever had. The carrots and the puréed turnips were divine. The petite cheeseboard for dessert was just perfect. Beautiful interior.

    This was a find. We were on a roadtrip and just passing by looking for places to eat. The food and the ambiance was amazing. The plates were very well served. I fact, if we knew that before we would have probably ordered less food since we ended up taking a lot of us, but it was worthy.
