    Way over priced for the product. Service was poor. Appeared to be under staffed for the occasion.

    Incredible food, quality and service. We all enjoyed our wood and wine greatly and will highly recommend. Only thing i wish was different is that we were told what the market price was to previously ordering. Our mistake too that we didnt ask because when the check came, we were in sticker shock that our steak dish was over $325 . Very high quality restaurant and expensive. If you are prepared for that then it was absolutely incredible and we will be back for sure.

    The food was amazing as always but our server was a bit pushy on upselling us on the wine and his demeanor shifted noticeably when we opted to purchase a more economical selection. A bit disappointing compared to our prior visit.

    The best part of dinner were the soufflés. Sommelier was great. Service so so. Whilst awaiting the sommelier we mentioned that we wanted wine by the glass. The server said”what do you normally drink?!!!” It was downhill from there. We ordered the endive and apple salad. The taste was good but could have been better. The presentation was not really French. Chopped salad is an American phenomenon and the taste is different from whole leaves and sliced apples.
