Staff and service are 5 star. Food was okay. Wagu (at additional cost) was dry and tasteless. Marrow bones undercooked. At $1000 for 4 people wasn’t worth it.

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner last night in the outdoor globes. The food was fantastic. The service was excellent. The experience of dining at night, in the globes was very enjoyable. The cold outside temperatures was not an issue inside. We really liked being able to control our own music in our globe. We are looking forward to coming back.

Extremely overpriced and they throw in extra charges on the bill. Atmosphere, staff, and service was very nice, however, the food was very inconsistent and WAY overpriced. Some of the meals were good but then others were not good at all. For the cost to eat and throwing extra charges on people…the food better be immaculate, especially if you’re identifying as a French restaurant. Tried to get the waiters attention on two different occasions to get the check and our desserts and he looked directly at me and then walked away. Wasn’t until the third time I had to waive my hands bigger to get him to attend. It’s a French restaurant without French cuisine training or chefs. So they charge you for the price of a high end restaurant without the actual quality and training to go with it. They need an updated menu. If you want good and friendly service and a great atmosphere and don’t care about the costs or that it’s not a real French restaurant with high quality food to match, then this is still a good place to go.

Food was good but a bit overly fussy. We enjoyed scallops, poullet, the salad and croque madam which had a too-rich sauce. All desserts were outstanding: mousse, profiteroles and a lemon curd tart. Champagne was wonderful. Fixed price menu is constraining. Would prefer ala carte options.

Our server was great. The food was okay for what we paid for. We did the 3 course menu. The appetizers were good, but the main was disappointing on flavor on both accounts. Then the dessert was good, the cookie was the best part of the meal. Just know it’s a $400 dinner if you have two 3 course meals and two drinks each.
