    Saturday night's!! A Great place to chill with friends, meet new people, enjoy a few drinks, with a nice music landscape of Classic Hip Hop, Neo Soul, and Jazzy Lounge Beats!!

    The cocktails here match the restaurant’s French, Prohibition-era style perfectly: Kir Royales and French 77s, made with St. Germain, lemon, and cremant, are utter perfection. Read more

    A pretty un-pretentious, but definitely not cheap French restaurant. A super beautiful place though, with rich woods, private booths, and a warm crackling fire in the wintertime. (Great for dates!)

    Don't be afraid of the Foie de Lapin. It's so delicious. Loves the mussels and the steak frite, too! Great atmosphere at the bar and upstairs.

    The Bitches Say: B+. Chez Billy offers a well-appointed brunch in a lovely setting, though the entrees could have used some additional heft. Winner of the Bitches' Worst Brunch Loss award of 2013!

    Been here twice. It's good for happy hour but the service is just okay in the sit down area and the selections are rather limited.
