    As we eat our way through the breakfast/ lunch menu, one dish is as tasty as the next! A personal favorite is the Madam and Monsieur. Who doesn't love a creamy bechamel for breakfast??!! All of the servers are very friendly, attentive and professional, quickly remembering our personal preferences as regulars. Owner John's music playlist is very fun and perfectly sets a mellow dining mood. As a small, intimate spot, it's not a bad idea to make reservations on weekends.

    Food was interesting and unusual and yummy. Lobster beet fusili was unusual and tasty. I had it as my main after delicious clam chowder. Husband had the boullabaise and could not have been happier. We were cold in the restaurant. A warm sweater would have been appreciated. Service was great until we had finished our meal.
