    Wonderful experience overall! Valentine’s Day specials included chicken cordon bleu- so delicious, from the haricots verts to mashed potatoes to the perfectly cooked chicken. Souffle was also delicious as was the classis onion soup. Service was top notch- friendly and helpful without being intrusive. Great wine recommendation as well. Saved room for the profiteroles for dessert- good choice!

    This experience was really fun. We had a private session. Clay was lovely! We made one espresso martini and then learned about different variations/got to sample. The food pairings were yummy. Overall, it was a little overpriced for how much you actually get to do for making the drinks but we had a lovely time. They let us stay and hang out even after our class was over.

    We wanted to eat somewhere close to the Tenement Museum, and we picked this. Lovely atmosphere in here. I had the crispy rice salad, and my companion and I split the banana bread. Both were delicious! It looks like a great bar to sit at as well. Servers were attentive but not overbearing.

    GET THERE EARLY FOR BRUNCH!!!!! if late, no almond croissant...just other baked goodies...we ate the wonderful baked eggs and the tuna tartare -- delicious and good sized portions. the small wine list is adequate for brunch.` `Our waiter Carlos is super professional, having worked in many multi-star restos. Cozy vibe in both bar and dining room areas...worth reserving well in advance ``````````````
