Outstanding French cuisine at a price commensurate with the quality and portion size of the food. Our reservation allowed us to be seated immediately, the service was superb (we have a favorite waiter), the meal was unhurried and delightful. This is a first class restaurant. Do not expect to be rushed while dining nor for the cost of excellence to be cheap. A great place for a special evening.

Nothing short of exceptional. It's a small space that has comfortable seating and attentive wait staff. The menu has so many choices and I hope to eat my way through most of it. The food & beverages are full of warm, melt in your mouth, flavors.

We ate outside and while it was humid it wasn’t terrible as there were fans. There was live music and we could hear it but couldn’t make out the songs. Nautical gnocchi was delicious for me. My husband had the dirty chicken. Portion size was good and we each could have finished our meals but saved some for lunch tomorrow.
