Very limited menu for lunch. Food and service were good. Don't pass up the French Onion Soup, a bit expensive but definitely worth it!

I just got engaged here!! Our server, Corinne, and the manager on duty (sorry, didn't catch your name!) Made it an amazing experience for me and my fiancée. Food is always great, ambience is stellar - order the escargot and the lemon dessert!

The service from entry to exit seemed ambivalent. For an extended period of time, there was no one at the hostess stand to greet guests. We were sitting near the entry, so we could see the repeated huddle of guests continuing to wait for long periods after we waited. Once seated, the waitress was rushed and kept rushing off before we could ask for a drink, an appetizer, etc. We had to ask the host for a forgotten drink order as the waitress was invisible. We asked about an appetizer, and the description seemed small (cheese plate), but it was enormously generous, and we ended up over-ordering. The cheese plate was presented as a basic, massive hunk of cheese with some jam on the side + some toast. The entrees took a disproportionate time to arrive after the cheese plates. The entrees were "fine" but blunt for the price point. We had to hunt someone down to take our check so we could leave. We have never seen a 3% kitchen charge on a check before on the food charge. It seemed like a hidden price adjustment.
