    Excellent kitchen and waitstaff. Restaurant has lingering kitchen grease odors and has started piping in noisome AI generated muzak.

    Beautiful restaurant. Friendly and knowledgable service. Amazing food. Wonderfully slow paced tasting menu and wine pairing made for a near perfect Christmas dinner. Overall I highly recommended for that special occasion.

    I brought my staff for a celebratory holiday lunch and we couldn't have been happier. LeeAnn, the hostess/server,  was warm, friendly, and just the right level of attentive. We sat in the covered/atrium space in the back, which was perfect on a rainy day. Cocktails and food were delicious - I ordered the mussels and they were some of the best I've ever had. The lunch reminded me how much I enjoyed Frenchie before Covid and I'm looking forward to coming back on a regular basis. Thanks for a lovely wonderful lunch!
