We enjoyed our experience and service, however my husband and I were sick 15 minutes after leaving the restaurant. The only item my husband and I ate the same all day was the French onion soup from this restaurant.

Good food, friendly staff. Enjoyed the lamb stew. Unfortunately, the Diet Coke was very flat.

Wonderful atmosphere, Attentive customer service. The food was okay, but not the best. It is a quaint restaurant in an amazingly cozy neighborhood in DC. The vibe here is comfort, and makes me feel like I'm in a small local restaurant in Europe.

It was good, but not outstanding like it was a few (and more) years ago. The service isn't always consistent anymore. Now, each time we come, it's in hopes that the experience will be better than the time before.

Best Bistro in DC. Authentic AF. Been around DC for 20+ years. They throw an amazing Beaujolais party every year. Brunch and steak fries are second to none.

Made reservations for 2. Was seated along the front with street view! The restaurant is the typical older building high ceilings with an upstairs “loft area. Generally poor acoustics. Atmosphere is lively and homey much like a neighborhood restaurant. The food was excellent the table had the bœuf bourguignon and the Ora King salmon. Both superb and tasty paired with a good French Bordeaux wine and a crisp Italian Pinot Greco. Desert was a great experience fresh peach & strawberries in fresh vanilla Ice Cream topped with whipped cream. Ending with after diner/dessert Port. Food and ambience topped by an excellent service staff.

The food was good, but nothing to rave about. I guess it was getting late because although the service was ok, but they seemed busy “prepping” for the next day and we had to flag down and call over the server to ask for more!

My husband and I went back for dessert after he'd had dinner there with coworkers. We ordered 3 items, but only 2 ever came. The wait for those 2 was a little long, bit nothing compared to how long we waited after finishing those before we realized that not only was our 3rd item not coming, but our server wasn't coming back either. I had to ask the host for our check. It was about 45 minutes before closing, so maybe that was a factor, the service had been better a couple hours before when my husband's work group had dinner.
I did really enjoy the food. We had the profiteroles and the mont-blanc mouse. We had hoped to try the Crême Broulée but it never came.
Steak frites were just okay, it was cooked very well (I asked for medium and it was exactly that and tender), but the seasoning was a bit off-too much of a charcoal taste for my liking. Offering a side of Dijon mustard would’ve made it a little more authentic. The snails were excellent, and the rabbit in the rabbit stew was very tender, although it did get a bit rich towards the end. Ambiance is great, service is quick

What a gem! Quirky, warm French deco. Our server was friendly and attentive during the busy dinner hours. Cocktails were excellent. The food was authentic French, delicious, and it brought back fond memories of our vacation in Paris. Crowded and noisy, which only added to the experience. Recommend rez. Street parking only. Highly recommend.
