Very delicious food. We chose to go here for our last day of a short stay in Baltimore and we were not disappointed. The seats were fairly comfortable, although we had a booth table. On a Thursday evening it was not busy. My fiancée and I ordered appetizers and shared an entree, which I would do again. The flavors were excellent, especially on the duck confit, the steak tartare, and the escargot. I'd recommend the chocolate mousse for dessert. We also tried the pavlova. The latter was fun for the novelty, but I didn't find the flavors to be too interesting (especially in comparison to everything else).Portions were a little small, but we didn't mind. The prices, I think, while high for the area, were below what we've seen in other cities for high quality French cuisine, so I have no doubt the restaurant has close margins here.Service was quite attentive.All in all, I recommend coming here. Maybe not the place if you're starving and just want to stuff your face ; instead, you'll enjoy dishes that make you feel like it's fine dining. Our subtotal was around $100 for two people with three appetizers, an entree, and two desserts. Not bad at all for a date night!

I loved the entire experience. Our waiter was fantastic and I loved all the ducks decorating the restaurant. We started with flower of the sun cocktail which was so delicious. I could have drank those all night! For food, we had the French onion duck soup which wasn't bad but wasn't anything special either. I didn't feel like the duck added anything. For mains, I had the duck confit. It was the best duck I've ever eaten. Feel right off the bone and the sauces were extraordinary. My partner had the steak du poivre and the sauce was great on that as well. But it was not as good as the duck. My friend had the trout and while I didn't try any myself he said it was very good. We tried all three desserts and while all were good the Pavlova was the clear winner by far. I would come back just to have that again! Overall, it was a fantastic experience.

Came for Baltimores restaurant week. Everything was incredibly delicious. My favorite was the pear and cheese appetizer, such a great pairing! Loved the outdoor space, would be even better during the warm seasons. [Until next bite -K]

This is always a 10/10 for me. When it comes to the Baltimore Food Scene, there are so many great options and this one should not be skipped over. Get the DDG Burger or the Salmon Benedict if you are there for brunch. The loosey goosey is a great cocktail and the mocktails are also delish. The atmosphere is elevated and has really cute details you will appreciate. Highly recommend this spot!

Our experience was quite disappointing.The food quality was good, but nothing special. Duck confit was a bit bland, though the tagliatelle was excellent.The service was shockingly poor. We arrived on time for our reservation, but had to wait for 30 min for a seat. We were told to wait at the bar, so we placed a drink, which apparently was lost on a separate ticket. After speaking to the host and chasing down the waiter, the drink arrived 45 min in to the evening. We were also told by the bartender they would cover the drinks, but it was still on the bill because “the bar was not allowed to comp drinks”. We did get a small glass of Champagne to compensate but it felt annoying either way.The real deal breaker was just the ridiculous wait for the meal. A small 3 course set menu shouldn’t take 2.5 hours. It was getting absurd when we were asked three times by the waiter if we had received our deserts. I’m not sure how a refrigerated mousse would take nearly an hour to deliver.We were told over and over how they were understaffed, they needed more people, and various other excuses.Looking at the other reviews it seems their front of house has fallen apart in the last six months. I believe it. Hopefully things will improve, but I would avoid it until then.

Took almost 3 hours to serve a 3 course menu for restaurant week. Both ladies toilets were not flushing. Bartender said they were comping our cocktails after taking a half hour to make them but we were later charged for them anyway. We were seated next to the front door which loudly slams every time someone goes in or out and lets in a burst of cold air.

Intimate, cozy French restaurant in Fells Point. One of my favorites to visit while in the area. Brunch menu has so many delicious choices. Must try the french toast. Loved the salmon benedict, never had it on a croissant, but absolutely works, great version of benedict. The only thing better than the food is the off the charts service of the manager and staff. Our waiter exceeded all expectations. Recommended this place to all our friends.
I would order Duck confit every time because it’s basically the only thing that worth its price on the menu. Everything else we’ve tried so far is way too salty, or fatty, or both. Definitely overpriced. The services are also mediocre. Btw there’s a fly (or other type of bugs) flying around our table by the window in our last visit.

We had a made New Year's Eve reservation, and when we arrived, were given a pre-fixe menu with no option to order off the regular menu. Three courses for $85 per person. The courses were not only small, but they were very rushed. We saw one couple leave in 45 minutes. We had even asked the waiter to hold our main course until we had a chance to enjoy the app and have a drink or take a moment or something, but despite that, our main arrived when we weren't ready for it. We had to ask for bread because we were still hungry after the first course. Ultimately we asked them to pack our dessert and we left. It felt like we were at a fast food place. The waiter had also said that the entrees were ready to be flash-fried...I mean, that doesn't bode well for quality. Ended up having to get more food else-where.

Went with a friend for a New Years Eve dinner. There was a misunderstanding about the pre fixed menu and the manager went above and beyond to make it right—even gave us complimentary champagne and helped accommodate my dietary restrictions. It is on the more expensive side but the quality of the food and excellent service was well worth it. A great spot for a nicer dinner or occasion!

I really like this restaurant! All the food is great! I love their cocktails and the wait staff is so friendly and attentive. The ambiance is great too! I love all their starters. We got the duck French onion soup. It is warm and has a slight duck flavor from the chunks of duck meat. It goes well with the stewed onions and melted cheese! We also got the escargot. The meat was tender and soft. It was delicious with the butter sauce which went well with the soft bread. Their goat pear salad was good too! The pear was really pretty and purple and it went well with the cheese. The fresh salad was perfect with the sweet pear and creamy cheese. You have to try their duck burger. The meat is so tender and soft. It is so juicy. The meat is well balanced with the sweet jam! I also really liked their lamb shank which was fall off the bone tender. It was also flavored so well. I got the duck breast which was cooked perfectly. It went well with the various assortment of beets. The beets added a nice touch of sweetness to the meal. Their desserts are great too! I really like their caramel croissant bread pudding. It is so soft and fluffy. Also, it has the right level of sweetness. I did enjoy their chai tea dessert. The cream on top goes perfectly with the dense chocolate dessert.
Scottsdalesque, overpriced, and food of middling quality.Also the espresso is $9. There are cheaper and better restaurants down the street from this place.
