RUN to eat here. The best meal I’ve had in SF after 7 years. Better than Quince, Rich Table, Osito, Earnest, Saison. I’m not even kidding and yes, I know those are different cusisines. The food is divine. Authentic French food and service (if they liked Americans).

I met up with three friends who live in the neighborhood (I work there, but live elsewhere) and we truly had a wonderful experience! We had flights of wine (paired with chocolates), then ordered glasses of the ones we most enjoyed and also shared a delicious charcuterie board among us. The staff was incredibly kind, thoughtful & went above and beyond multiple times to make us feel welcome and to create a delightful experience, filling the evening with treats and the best service I've had in awhile. This is going to be a regular go-to for us! Thank you all so much for a fabulous evening!

So nice to see this addition to the neighborhood. Food was delicious. I hope they add more small plates and hope they change them up - that would be fun. Definitely plan on going back and recommending to others.
