Good ambience but the food and cocktail drinks were bad (maybe their whiskey section is better as they specialize in that) and super expensive. Small portion size and not worth it at all. They also add 20% service charge even though it was just the two of us and don't clarify it in tip section.

Good drinks and service but 20% service fee is obnoxious. I’ll drink elsewhere.

Bad service twice in a row, tiny and expensive dishes, and food is not very good (except for the fries).

Disappointing service, mislead us on 50% off the Scotch but not the whiskey - didn't bother to tell us when we ordered directly per the recommendation.

20% service fee ALL retained by the owner. This is wage theft. Plain and simple. Really would have gone back but it left a disgusting taste in our mouth. Save yourself the trip and go to Dreamland next door.
So tired of restaurants that add a "20% living wage" fee, that can be retained by the company (unlike tips) instead of just correctly displaying their prices.

Très bel endroit pour prendre un verre, un cocktail, ou un plat servi même en après-midi. Nos choix étaient très réussis, la planche charcuterie /fromage très bonne et assez « traditionnelle » pour convenir à nos goûts français. La terrasse ombragée en bordure de rue est très sympa et le l’ambiance à l’intérieur vraiment cosy. Serveur sympa et disponible.

They have a really cozy atmosphere!
Hidden 20% service charge they claim goes to paying livable wages. Put out the door prices on your menu and stop stealing what most people would have placed as a tip.

Go to Ballard Cut instead. We were auto-charged 20% service fee ($48) for two people drinking two nice whiskies in 45 mins. I’ll happily tip good service. But $48 auto-gratuity to bring out two pours each in under an hour is insane. Didn’t order food. Was empty at 6pm and the bar staff were just staring at us.

My husband and I went for a couple of cocktails on a Saturday earlier in the evening. It was busy but not BUSY. Our server was friendly but slow, it took a moment to have them come over to take our order. Even longer to get our drinks, we had to wait awhile after to ask for our check. They charge an automatic 20% gratuity, which is frustrating. We didn’t feel our serve reflected a 20% tip since they were attentive. We were hoping to add this to our roster of places we go to in our neighborhood but we won’t be going back.
