    5 of us went for the prix fixe on Christmas Day. No one got a dish that was anything but amazing including the beef tartare, salmon tartare, calamari a la Provence, duck confit, veal chop…. The vibe is very low key French bistro but the service is outstanding. And they didn’t rush you through the courses. It was fantastic

    One of our best dining experiences ever - and we go out alot. Just what you want from a restaurant. The food was outrageously good. Everything ! Presented beautifully. Not rushed. The service was outstanding. James was the ultimate grand server. There when needed. Explained everything. The physical space was interesting - could see the kitchen. And it was relatively quiet !! Justin - the manager - was super helpful with wine suggestions , and he generated a warm welcome when we entered. The concept of sharing enhanced the experience with our friends. And did I mention the food was super good. We will be raving about this place to everyone we know. A true grand dining experience ! Thanks to all that made that happen.
