Beautiful dining room, attentive, well-I formed service, delicious food with an excellent selection of seemingly very fresh fish and a noise level that is actually conducive to conversation. Despite its size, the room was packed. Great for a special occasion.

Lucie is a gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism. Chef Arnaud took us on an amazing journey! Each dish was a symphony of flavors, beautifully presented, and clearly crafted with passion and precision. The service was outstanding—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming. Every detail, from the ambiance to the wine list, added to an unforgettable experience. Highly recommend this place for anyone seeking a dining experience that is truly exceptional.
