Servers were great, food was great, cocktails were great, but the kitchen was extremely slow. After appetizers we waited around 45 minutes for our entrees. Very surprising since the restaurant was only at ~20% capacity.

Very attentive staff and very interesting and tasty delicious! We ordered their uni dried shrimp rice cake quick bites as appetizers, whole branzino, tiger prawns and specials little clams and also short ribs as main courses to share. We enjoyed everything, especially the branzino and clams. Cocktails were tasty too! Glad to see this family restaurant (which also used to serve great food back in the Tenderloin) now having this nicely decorated eatery as their new location.

Clearly one of the best restaurants in the Bay Area. We had the 9-course tasting menu, chef Claude’s signature. Usually for such menus there’s always one or two less interesting. Not here, no miss, everything was exquisite. Very polite and knowledgeable service staff. Quiet. Really a fantastic experience.

Food was excellent. Service could have been faster but I don’t really have complaints since we were taking our time. It’s a bit pricey, but that’s to be expected.

Excellent French food. The “little bites” are a great way to get started. The appetizers and mains were also excellent. Also quite vegetarian friendly.
