    Took my BFF for her birthday brunch knowing she doesn’t like heavy French food, she thought it was charming, loved our brunch. Our waiter was lovely, fun took very good care of us as did the hostess and we had a lovely couple of hours. We dined outside. They have heat lamps, which were really lovely for a cool Sunday morning.  Will definitely go back and my BFF said she tends to bring her husband there as well so overall it was a hit.😛

    The food was absolutely delicious, and our server provided exceptional service throughout the evening. We were celebrating my birthday, and the ambiance added a special touch to the occasion. However, the night ended on a disappointing note due to an unprofessional encounter with one of the security staff in the upstairs bar area. When we attempted to take a group picture in an open section that was accessible to everyone and not reserved, the security guard rudely demanded that we move, despite our explanation that we were just taking a quick photo. To our frustration, minutes later, we saw another group use the same area without issue. This inconsistency left us feeling singled out and deeply disappointed, especially after spending over $1,500 on dinner alone. While the evening was otherwise enjoyable, this negative experience overshadowed what should have been a memorable celebration. I hope this feedback is taken seriously to ensure better treatment of all guests in the future.

    What a great restaurant! Service was outstanding, properly staffed and knowledgeable (not just selling the most expensive thing on the menu). Food was excellent. Pork belly didn’t skimp on the caviar, duck was cooked to perfection and the side veggies were plentiful for a table of 4. Dined on a Tuesday in December. A lot of Christmas dinner activity and noise. I was still able to have a nice conversation and had to speak up once or twice. Go with the expectation to spend more than usual and you will not be disappointed.
