Very tasty food, good service, lovely menu. The prix fixe prices were good, but since you're paying per person it's weird that they only gave 2 frog legs per table (menu made it seem like it would be 2 per person). Plus, they wouldn't let a single person get the wine paring, they required everybody to order it (last time a restaurant imposed that on me was quite a few years ago). They also didn't seem to have read the notes I made on the reservation, and I had to tell them in person it was my girlfriend's birthday.
