The service was fantastic and the decor was beautiful. We were expecting the crepes to be bigger, As I am gluten intolerant, I was hoping that the crepes would be made out of buckwheat. Unfortunately I could not order any of those options and they all sounded delicious! The ocean trout salad was very nice.
