Beautiful room... Menu is not in English thought I ordered scallops but I got raw cold scallops that smelled like fish... Sent it back. Instead got a cheeseburger dripping in mayonnaise... Yuck
It was our anniversary dinner but the music was young thumping dance music not music fitting dinner or the beautiful room like piano jazz or something conducive to conversation...
The menu is not similar to a French brasserie... They need to work on a new menu
Everything was fantastic!! My cocktail, appetizer and dinner ……amazing. My waitress added another layer of perfection. Merci💕
