This was a very long meal, 3 hours in total. Other than that I have no complaints. Intimate setting and the chef came out to speak to us about the food.
The shrimp with Ratatouille was really great. There was a tomato included stuffed with olive tapenade. Solid.
The sauce that came with the duck confit was a reduced port wine sauce. Sauce on the filet was a cognac reduction. The sauces is really made both dishes.

Awful/terrible food. Disappointing experience. 3 hours of terrible food. It's not French food. There was nothing French about the meal. The food wasn't seasoned. It had no flavor. It was cooked poorly and prepared poorly. The chef doesn't seem to be trained in French cooking and lacks basic cooking skills. $125 per person. Not worth it for store bought food and badly prepared courses.
The cold peach/mango soup was an odd choice to start the dinner. The onion tart wasn't a tart. It looked like a store bought pita with olive paste and onions on top of it. It lacked flavor and there was no balance. It needed acid or something to break up the flavors. The waiter made a big fuss about the chef only cooking a steak to medium, that he will not do a well done steak. The steak was medium well, more well in most parts. The steak had no flavor. No salt. No seasoning. The fish was bland. It lay in a soupy tomato juice that had no flavor. The vegetables were undercooked and raw. The carrots were raw and weren't cooked correctly. The greenbeans didn't have their strings removed. The bread and croissants were store bought. Cold and dry. The croissants were cakey, not flaky. The salad was just a bowl of lettuce with a strange flavorless dressing. Cheese plate - The blue cheese was salty. The other cheeses weren't great. No crackers with it. There was mold on one of the cherries. Dessert was cheesecake (not French) with a raspberry. It tasted store bought.
Service was long. It was an awful dragged out experience that I never want to sit through again. Long delays between courses. We felt stuck there. She wouldn't let us pay ahead of the meal, so we were forced to sit through it all.

I do not recommend this place. Save your money. The food was cold and lacked seasoning. The bread tasted like it was store bought. The service was not that great either. For $125 per person, it's not worth it.

We ate there during COVID for my wife’s birthday. It’s the closest to Paris you are going to get in the South. Going back soon
We had a great time with friends. The service was fantastic. The food is good but based on the reviews I expected just a bit more flavor. I would recommend it as a nice evening out.

We visited for the first time last night. Absolutely lovely. The chef and the owner were both lovely and a delight to talk with. This was my first experience with French cuisine, and I was floored. The flavors of each course were complex and well developed. I can't wait to return. It may be more than some folks are used to spending, but it is well worth it.
Make a reservation. Relax and enjoy a lovely evening without any rush.

I had never heard of this French restaurant before a friend invited me to join her. It is cash or check only and BYOB wine, so come prepared.
The restaurant is located at the end of a dead end road in a residential area, so you may feel out of place when you pull into the gravel drive. The restaurant name is marked on a sign, so you are sure you are in the right place.
The service starts the minute you step outside your car. I was met at the door by the owner taking me to my table. Our server was wonderful. He told us that the restaurant had been in business 40 years, and that there used to be horse training and a vineyard on site.
The 7 courses were all amazing! We started with tomato bisque soup, followed by shrimp scampi as the appetizer. They have 3 entree options daily. The previous table ordered all of the filets and my friends took the last of the duck, so I got the remaining salmon (I definitely wasn't disappointed though!). Vinegarette salad and a cheese plate were served together with fresh bread. The chocolate dessert with berry confit was delicious served with coffee.
It was very interesting talking to the owner about her life after dinner.
I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone!
