One of my all time fav restaurants. It looks high end, the food is amazing but the vibe is casual and enjoyable. The Chicken is the best Chicken meal I've ever eaten and I'm from the south. You will not be disappointed with this choice!

Portion sizes have gotten smaller,m and the food isn't quite on par with the way it was a few years ago. But still a great meal each time and a long time favorite lunch spot. Will continue to go here until it closes (which hopefully won't be anytime soon!). Highly recommended!

This is a great restaurant for people visiting from out of town or getting dinner before the theater. The menu includes both French bistro and American Classics, something for everyone! Excellent french fries and cocktails and don't pass on the gougières
