    It's small, which I love. It can be a little loud but it's still one of the top ( in San Diego.

    It was the best meal ever! The vibe and ambience were so cozy and the food was so delicious. The escargot was amazing and the pork chop dish was our favorite. The duck confit was also very yummy. But def I would order that pork chop again when I revisit later

    What a wonderful discovery! This charming French gem offers a small menu, but every dish we tried was delicious, as were the cocktails. Thank you, and we look forward to returning!
