Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in University City

Delicious lunch of Nicoise Salad, chicken liver parfait , mushroom soup, and profiteroles. Lunch delicious as usual. Service very good. Bar seats full at 2pm, reservations recommended. Take out order of cheeseburger was missing the caramelized onions. Tomato and lettuce are not automatically included on burger and must be requested if desired.

Great crème brûlée for dessert. Outstanding mushroom omelet. Steak Asian salad Was good but the steak was a bit tough

Great business dinner spot - quiet enough without feeling dull, food was uniformly great, waiter pleasant and knowledgeable. Top marks on all counts.

Wow! I walked past this resto so many times, and, from the outside, it looked average. However, as soon as you walk in the front door, you know that you are some place special. The ambience is great, but, more importantly, the food was exquisite. Yes, it was expensive, but the experience was worth every penny. To start, we ordered rolls with chive butter, and, for an entrée, had pumpkin ravioli with walnuts, apples, onions, and ricotta cheese--yum! The food was so good that we decided to order dessert, an apple tartan which was equally delicious. On top of that, our server was excellent, very helpful, and friendly. You have to try this place at least once!

Wonderful service and tasty food, a little noisy during peak lunch hours but it adds to the cozy atmosphere! I appreciated the variety of gluten free options and care towards allergies
