A French bistro tucked into the heart of Birmingham. I had the trout amandine — buttery, delicate, and balanced with toasted almonds. The atmosphere is cozy and intimate, with a little European charm. Service was polished but warm, making the evening feel relaxed yet special.
Steak frites landed perfectly—tender beef, crisp fries, and a bright pan sauce that tied it all together. Service moved smoothly without fuss, and the bistro buzz made the room feel lively but unhurried. A polished classic that still feels genuinely cozy.
Perhaps I ordered incorrectly. My husband and I went for his birthday. I hadn’t been in for many many years. I had the burger. It was incredibly disappointing and bland. The hamburger meat desperately needed salt. As did the fries. I would not order again.
The ambiance is a nice escape from the trashy streets of 5 pts. Miss the days when you could buy wine on the corner at the wine shop and Highlands was open!
