Lovely food, and excellent service. Alvaro was our waiter today. He was attentive without hovering which I prefer. All the staff we interacted with were friendly and efficient. We were able to sit over our meal and take our time so it was a really great afternoon. Food came nicely presented and hot straight from the kitchen, servings were decent, and as described on the menu. Facilities were clean and well maintained. An extremely enjoyable experience - thank you.

Service was excellent. We had the steak and wine deal but felt like the side and sauce was too small for what we paid. Our server was excellent with lots of good recommendations for us

Good French food at reasonable price. They have made special arrangements for my cousin’s 60th birthday by complementary deserts and a plate with lovely happy birthday message. They personally came and greeted her. She was very happy by their lovely gesture.
