    Very nice cozy indoor and covered open-aired dining areas. Nice sized tables. Service is very good. My escargot and duck l-orange were excellent.

    The entire staff there is always so nice and friendly! We love it. It’s our favorite place to go before going to the McCallum Theater!

    We were celebrating a Birthday; she knew this Restaurant, but I didn't. It was a most wonderful surprise! Such wonderful hosts...checking in that we were happy with the Table, the food and the Service. Our Waiter, Jose, was fantastic and the food was delicious and prepared carefully and generously. We are looking forward to our next visit; hopefully before they close for the hot summer months!

    We always love our time at this restaurant. The food is consistently great. Don't eat too much as you want to leave room for dessert, esp. the profiteroles. My wife is in an wheelchair and the hosts were so very accommodating. We were with friends and we have been there with many other friends over the years. We look forward to our next visit. Alan

    one of my favorites sitting at table 24 looking out at the street is just a lovely evening. French onion soup is terrific and they do a killer crab cake.
