Really enjoyed my experience last night. The food (oysters, goat cheese stuffed olives, basque cheesecake and a wine flight) were all great, and very attentive service. No notes.

We had a great dinner, good food and atmosphere. Note that the restaurant is accessed off an alley. Might be best to meet your friends and walk in together.
