Service was unbelievably slow. Waitress said it was because of the new menu at lunch but they better do something about it because otherwise food was very good. Slow slow service spoils the experience.

Arrived at 13:30, during peak lunch service. Orders took a while to arrive and the burger was over done and a bit dry. Probably better when less crowded.

We were sold the wrong bottle of wine -- 2x more than we asked for. The wine steward was completely off the mark and absent after the mistake was made -- so a very poor showing by them

So disappointing. Steaks were over-cooked and had to be sent back. Foie gras was Pate vs an actual foie gras (and manager argued with me about it). Frites were off the menu and replacement potatoes cooked in duck fat were unimpressive. Wine was excellent. But overall no one seemed to be trying. Underwhelming in the extreme. Avoid. Oh, and the address on Open Table is wrong. Sloppy.
