    Whenever I go here I wonder why I don't come here more often. It's great food in a wonderful environment with amazing staff & owner.

    From the Owner-Chef, throughout the entire staff, the service and attentiveness are an absolute joy to experience. They top this with the Food, which is absolutely incredible! Haven't been? GO!

    Philippe the chef is the nicest man ever, and if you get there before 5:30 I believe, you can get the 3 course early bird special, which is basically the regular 3 course menu but wayy cheaper

    To me, the perfect Filet Mignon has a salty, crispy outside, and tender, juicy, medium rare center. Sad that they totally missed a good sear on the filet... Also the bass & oxtail dish was too salty..

    Their coconut basket with fresh fruit is amazing and very light and guilt free. Their chocolate lava cake was a disappointment, however. Mussels were a great app, comes with delicious fries

    Intimate setting but tables are too close together so it feels like others are in your space. Great service and generous servings of wine by the glass. Chef greets everyone. Food was nice. Dessert ok

    The trio of salmon and filet mignon with bone marrow are absolutely amazing. Also the French toast for dessert is soooo good.

    The French toast dessert really stood out as being amazing, but everything else was quite mediocre. Come between 5-6pm for a 3 course early bird special!

    Always filet mignon + foie gras for me, but since they stopped serving the latter, it's been a tad less impressive. Steak itself is still great! Rabbit (when available) = melt-in-your-mouth goodness.

    Seared foie FTW! Eat in the bar for a casual eve or do the early bird pre fixe for special occasion

    Waiter was not nice about my google glass. Did not communicate 2 the kitchen about my peanut allergy. Ruined our 2 year anniv & additional celebration that I won't mention. No free desert or anything.
