although my brother lived and worked in BUrlington for years, this place wasn't around when he did...but our daughter just went there recently and recommended this. This is kind of a cool take on the french bistro; although we sat outside the inside looked true...to type, but there's no molecular gastronomy here; the portions are large and the food, service, etc are terrific. Outdoor seating is right on Church Street pedestrianized area. It was cool, so bring a blanket. Kerosene heaters didn't quite do the trick. Place was not overly obsessed with the whole COVID hysteria although we did have to sign a registry. Terrific friendly and helpful servers. Mid range to expensive, but worth it because of the quality and quantity. Unlike most restaurants i review, where i've already forgotten what I had, i have the receipt, so... We started with "duck frites". Now, coming from 20 years in Portland, ME, to us that meant fries in duck fat. Uh, no. It was basically, let's see...fried duck fingers or tenders, with a great dipping sauce. I mean, a place of nicely fried duck (I think with a graham cracker crust?) for $13? Who knew. Good way to start. I tend to have Caesar salads whenever i eat out, because to me it is one of the barometers of quality. If a place can make a good caesar (even if it isn't classic) that's a good indication that someone is paying attention. This was very very good. $15.50 plus $1.50 for the anchovies. So it wasn't a price performer, but by now it was obvious the meal was going to be special. We got a bottle of wine (a frnech Sauv blanc) for $36.00. We had 2 zero gravity brewery beers, both were good. We also split an appetizer of olives, which were very good and plentiful. So far firing on all cylinders. For dinner my wife had spaghetti squash. , She makes a mean one at home, but she liked this. Personally I don't go out to eat to eat veggies. so I cemented a little more plaque on my coronaries with Carbonara, which was a really good sized portion done well; not a classic presentation, but solid anyway. I think we had dessert but can't find it on the receipt; we had two decafs as well and the total was $195 - remember, this is with a bottle of wine, 2 apps, 2 drinks, coffee, and $16 tax. Not a bargain, but it didn't pretend to be. Not only would we go back, but we were talking about this place for much of the next day.More

We made reservations for inside dining and was seated immediately upstairs at a window table. The spinach and artichoke dip was fabulous!! I got the maple walnut salmon and my husband ordered the crispy chicken. Both dinners were amazing!! They take information for Covid contact...tracing too which is reassuring. We can’t wait to go back on our next visit to Burlington!More

If you can't get a reservation here, definitely put your name on the wait list for the time you want- I did this and got the exact time I wanted after a cancellation! I am so happy I did because this restaurant was very good....It's located right downtown and it feels like your sitting in an authentic Paris bistro. The food was so good and the portions were HUGE! My husband had the scallops and they were great and I had the Vermont crispy stuffed chicken which was sooo good. There was so much food that it didn't even look like I put a dent in my meal. But I am not complaining! I would certainly come here again and try other things on the menu as they had so many unique options.More
