    This was where we chose for my best friend's bachelorette dinner, and she loved it. The ambiance is energetic, and the Christmas decorations make it festive and beautiful. I usually get the Filet Au Poivre, but this time I got the beef bourguignon, and it did not disappoint. The beef fell apart and the vegetables were tender and not overcooked. I also got a Caesar salad as an appetizer. That was fresh and the dressing was homemade. If you love anchovies like I do, this is an excellent salad! For a drink I chose the La Toissaint, and that was spectacular. I highly recommend this place if you love great food, great drinks and a festive atmosphere!

    Very high quality Lebanese food. Second time going there this fall. Atmosphere is very French Bistro casual. Grilled octopus special was outstanding. Meat dishes also very good. Like most of NJ it’s BYOB. If you forget, plenty of stores nearby.
