  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
Neighborhood French-inspired bistro featuring an ever-changing French-Fusion menu that keeps you coming back to try the things you didn’t have room for.
Marianne’s organic garden helps supply Warren’s kitchen with his beloved fresh produce & both are actively involved in the local food movement.
The ambiance is fusion as well - bistro style rather than “fine dining” - that is at once classic French and comfortable with an open kitchen so foodies can watch the work in progress. Art work is a mix of Mucha prints and Warren’s photography. Music is quirky.
Nightly wine by the glass specials, carefully curated wine list and a delightful cocktail menu round out drinks offerings.
Neither high chairs nor booster seats are available.
Reservations are for a two hour time period.
Classic Parisian style sidewalk seating available.
Warren and his wife Marianne have spent the last twenty-five years delighting diners with their worldly cuisine & genuine hospitality.

                                      While the overall experience was fine, food was good I has issue with the menus descriptions of the food. For example, the Sweet potato Wellington was described as sweet potato in pastry with mushroom coulis type of sauce but it did not mention that in true Wellington form it had spinach inside the pastry and outside. I would have preferred that all ingredients be mentioned especially since I avoid spinach for health reasons. I think less is not more when so many people have dietary restrictions and need to know every ingredient in the foods they eat.

                                      It was nice, but the food just wasn’t as memorable as in the past years. Service was excellent and still a beautiful place.
