We started with the award winning cocktail. The beet salad was over the top as was the scallop and fish entree. Very welcoming atmosphere❣️

We were the last table and our server couldn’t get us out fast enough. Didn’t even offer coffee or dessert.

The menu that is posted to open table is outdated. We went here for a specific item that our waiter said they have not served since he started working almost a year ago. Also the prices on Open Table do not match the prices at the restaurant. When one uses online menus to help determine the restaurant they want to attend, it needs to be updated.

A perfect treasure of a French bistro — a favorite with locals and highly recommended to us. Impeccable service, superb food — we couldn’t have picked a better place for a romantic birthday celebration!
