    We are arrived at happy hour and it was very noisy & we were seated in a table which was between 2 noisy tables.. we were to leave & management moved us to a booth which was quieter and as it was our anniversary they brought a glass of bubbly and then happy hour was over, so the restaurant noise decreased.. we then ordered cocktails & dinner which was excellent. My advice is to go after 5:30 & miss happy hour.. a lovely French bistro!

    This restaurant is a little gem. As all of who were dining said that the entree was the best we had in a very long time. The food was delicious from start to finish, from salad and soup to the dessert. The service was also courteous and attentive. I gave this a 5 star rating.
