    It's so hard to get a reservation here but was able to get a last minute reservation. Score. Service was friendly but slow... Food took a while to arrive but the biggest issue that it was so hot. My friends and I were literally sweating while eating which is so uncomfortable. It makes you not hungry. You can see the humidity in the windows. My friend even had to step outside to cool down. Food was good.

    The atmosphere is cozy. The selections are varied. The quality is unsurpassed. The onion soup is rich. The Meyer Lemon creme brulee tart is stunning and scrumptious.

    The baked egg dish was way too oily and heavy, they also recommend it with bread which come with butter. It requires bread and so, it should be part of the dish due to its richness. I think it’s good to mention it to the customer. I barely could it and left 3/4 on the table and didn’t even want to box it home. The service was good and the ambience is nice. This was my second time here and both times my experience has been subpar. Likely won’t return
