    Requested a seat away from the front bar area and bathroom via reservation. Got there to a table in bar area just inside the front door. Brought it to their attention and were apologetic and after a few minutes seated us in a much better area. Service was excellent and the food never disappoints.

    The food was authentic and perfectly done, the service was excellent and the atmosphere was cozy yet lively. Chef (and owner) Aless added greatly to our experience and she is perfectly suited as a restaurateur. A fine French restaurant was sorely needed in the area. Highly recommend. We will definitely be back.

    We went for Valentine’s Day and it was great! We loved the special menu, loved that the employees were dressed up and the extra touch of giving each table a rose. All of this made it such a special night out! We also loved that you checked our coats after we checked in for our reservation! We also loved the fact that you hold our leftovers until the end and if one of us was still eating you didn’t clear the other persons plate right away. Jasmine has been our waitress the two times we have been for dinner so far and she has been excellent each time! The food was delicious! We will definitely be coming again in the future.
