Scallops were cooked perfectly, waiter was attentive, atmosphere inside is a bit rustic but romantic. Will be going back in the Summer/late Spring to enjoy the outdoor seating. more

My husband and I love the subterranean coziness of the downstairs dining room. Seated below street level in a dark, low-ceilinged room with lots of fabric, one feels transported to some European grotto. The food is very good French fare with many unusual offerings. We've had great rabbit and venison dishes here. It's true that it's pricey, but if you... more

First, the atmosphere seemingly charmed us, but when I put my glasses on, - I regretted it much… The seating bench along the wall had an old soiled fabric, chairs were too tall and uncomfortable, the glasses on our table were vastly different, the ceiling was covered by... more

Very nice atmosphere in their cute outdoor patio area. However, the food was unremarkable - not terrible but comparable to college dining hall food, nothing I would rave about. I would have been extremely disappointed if I had paid regular menu prices because the food is definitely not worth the $30-$40 normally paid for an entree. I had seen other... more
