Superb meals (beef and pithivier), exceptional red wines, very good service, great location. Somewhat pricy by most local standards but worth it for a special occasion. This being our first visit, we were surprised not to see it full on a Friday night.

The chef is clearly highly talented and the meal was delicious, particularly the Celeriac and Apple soup and the Roasted Cod with beans. My wife said her duck was excellent. As there were only two tables taken we might have expected excellent service; however it was poor - very long waits, absences and wrong menus. The chef came to talk to the other table but not to us! A missed opportunity as we would have been very complimentary to him and his cooking!
