Amazing in all respects, as always. The service is top notch and it starts with their GM Paul. The food is outstanding - French Vietnamese with plenty of vegetarian options. The wine selection is excellent. High recommended.

Food was surprisingly better than expected. I will definitely be back. So glad I found this gem. I have to try more menu items. Was skeptical about the sweet potato cornbread that came with the greens and friend chicken dish, but it was all very delicious. My date got the shrimp and grits and we shared the Mac and red beans and rice. We couldn’t stop saying “now try this”. I also had the Chardonnay and loved it. Everything was great our first go around will be back to try the rest of the menu.
