This place has the best simple delicious French food at reasonable prices. It's a small place and you may have to wait for a table but it's worth it. Service is variable, sometimes I felt invisible and other times well served. Regardless, the food is excellent.
Beautiful from start to finish! The atmosphere, staff, and food choices blow us away every single visit. They have a consistent main menu that never fails to wow us, along with unique rotating specials that always give us something new to look forward to.
We feel so lucky to have this gem in our town. We’re continually impressed by the prices, especially considering the quality of the food and the thoughtfulness that goes into every dish and every table that walks through...read full review
