    Everything is good here. I have been coming here for years...never disappointed. From the hostess, to the waitress all the way to the debonair bartender, the service is amazing. Come one, come all.

    Get the cheese plate and the babaganoush ask for extra bread. Don't bother with the sangria get a bottle of wine instead. The one table outside is the best in summer for ppl watching. Superb staff

    We couldn’t resist the glamorous older woman outside enticing us to come in. Get the Steak Au Poivre dinner special for $18, come with salad and a glass of wine. Service is brusque.

    Steak, salad, fries and wine only €18. Amazing value and taste. The Pinot Noire is delicious and Louisa is a really nice waitress. 10/10

    Really sweet and small intimate place. Loved the food and the staff was really nice. There's a real cute waitress that doesn't speak or understand much English but she's too cute to complain lol

    $15 carafe for selected wine (sangria is an option) and $19/person 10 appetizer selection is a nice dinner. Note 20% tip on bill automatically

    I can't believe how amazing the steak was for €18. And a glass of wine was thrown in. Great find, go there!

    Strong martinis and a great deal for carafes of wine. As far as food goes - we had the chef's small plates tasting (10 dishes) and calamari. Everything was pretty bland and very average.

    Food is not bad but the owner will try to replace the wine you picked by a cheaper one and then insult you in French, stay away from it
