Had a delicious meal last weekend. Started with escargot 🐌 😋 and then steak sans fries and had mashed potatoes instead. Husband had a salad and mussels with 🍟- his fries and mussels were delicious as well. A charming place —- feels like you’re in 🇫🇷 and not on 4th Avenue in Brooklyn. Lovely staff as well.

It was absolutely fabulous! They were so accomodating and prepared a substitute menu for an item I am unable to eat. Staff and service was remarkable. One of the best restaurants I've been to in a while! Thank you so much for making our night special. Special shout out to Oscar for his kindness :).

We’ve been to this restaurant a handful of times and this past visit was one of the best. The hospitality is unrivaled in the area and the food we enjoyed this go-around was so comforting it brought us back to our time in France. They are also incredibly family friendly (even when our newborn decided to make herself known!). Thank you again we can’t wait to come back.
