The restaurant had been on my list for a long time, and this weekend we finally managed to visit! We were absolutely enchanted! And for a moment, I felt like I was in a little bistro in Paris. The place is very beautiful and well-decorated, and the staff was very kind the entire time. I chose the fixed menu, and my husband opted to choose his own dishes. Everything was absolutely delicious! Highlights for me were the raclette cheese crepe and the desserts! The waiter Jude was extremely attentive and helpful. We loved the experience and will definitely be back!

We had a lovely time at the restaurant with family the day after Thanksgiving and spent over $700. Unfortunately several hours later everyone who ate the mussels and oysters (and no one who did not) got very sick, and were throwing up for hours. We were seeing many family members in the surrounding days and no one else got sick. No one had any viral symptoms. It’s pretty clear that a dish was contaminated, whether from being spoiled or from poor hand hygiene. I am a physician and I was concerned that someone with a weaker immune system could get very sick from eating the food so I tried multiple times to call the restaurant and finally reached them during Saturday dinner service. They told me that there was no way our party got sick from their food, but that the owner would call me. I find this really sad that they would not be concerned about continuing to serve the shellfish, especially considering there have been multiple deaths this year from people eating contaminated shellfish. Eventually someone sent a condescending email 5 days later that continued to deny that the food could be the cause of our illness and offered to refund the oysters and mussels.

I’m French so of course I’m in love with this spot. I started at the bar because I needed to do a little work. The bartender was so nice and I later bought his book about STL. He even signed our books. Thanks Matt! What a gem. Two of my friends crashed the dinner. Bless them. We started with the oysters aka your daily vitamins. Then I got the salmon toast and the gnocchi. Everything I needed all 10 out of 10. Such a beautiful spot, so well done.

This is a great little neighborhood French bistro! They have the best escargot I've ever had, fun and delicious little bites, and super tasty cocktails! It's the perfect spot for a fun outing with friends/coworkers (Spritz Hour!), or a date night with your beau. Next time I want to try the bistro burger, it looked so good!

I wanted to like this place. My husband took me for my birthday. At first it was nice we had the tour de France. My husband ordered an ice tea and waited until we were done with our appetizer to get it and it tasted like it was dirty. They took it off the bill at least. The place was empty but they sat the next customer right next to us and the woman's perfume was so overpowering I could taste it. Why did they have to put them so close to us so that when the server attended them her butt LITERALLY hit my plate TWICE. I ordered the muscles which just had an over powering flavor if dejon mustard it was like I was just dipping them in mustard. Did not order dessert since we just wanted to escape the perfume lady. Also my husband ordered a coke after the tea which he didnt get until he was done with his entire meal. Won't be back.

Cocktails and wine were very good. Food not so much. We had the steak (found large peppers on top of what would have been a nice steak but peppers took over the whole dish. Literally shreds of potato sticks on the top of steak as well that gave you no real enjoyment). The fish was also a huge disappointment- striped bass that had an overly potent taste of sage or oregano and the beans were hard. Flavor was waaay off on the steak and fish. The apps were also a huge disappointment- the crab toast was a very strong fishy flavor that they overdid it with the sauce so the (mayo mixture?) over took the crab. Yuck. The waiter however was attentive except at one point it took forever to get our wine to go with the food, so we were halfway done with our dishes by the time the wine arrived. The restaurant wasn’t even that busy. The bartender seemed to be busy talking to the couple at the bar. Overall we would go back for the cocktails.

This place is was awesome with each dish. Very attentive service also.
Incredible food, great atmosphere and fair pricing. We got crab toast and Parmesan soup for appetizer (both incredible), poached cod (delicate and yummy) and chicken cordon bleu (a bit on the heavier side but also delicious). For desert, pistachio financiers and pan perdu, both of which combined the warmth of the desert with cold ice cream for a delectable experience. Highly recommend, will come back.

Every course of our meal, from the oysters to the pain perdu, was excellent. We also received some of the best restaurant service we’ve ever experienced from Rylie, a true professional!
