Just about the only actual French food in South Bend. Definitely exceeded expectations with credible versions of a handful of French classics. Definitely good value for the dollar though not Haute Cusine or the best of Bistro fare. You should definitely try it yourself.

We had a lovely brunch celebrating Thanksgiving weekend. The wait staff was very pleasant and knowledgeable. There were so many delicious choices. We all shared a bit of our plates. For a party of five, with drinks and entrees with thought the bill was very reasonable for the service and the quality of the food. We had a delightful time. We may have found our new favorite restaurant!
