    After doing our own research to find a classy restaurant with great food, we chose Bijoux. In every category, this was an exceptional eating experience. Connie, our head server, was outstanding - knowledgeable about the menu, personable and friendly, delivering everything to the table at exactly the right times. We have pretty high standards for cleanliness, creativity, service, freshness and overall ambiance. We would hightail recommend Bijoux.

    We liked Ovide so much on our first visit that, for the third time in our over 30 year marriage, we requested the same server (Liz!!) and the same wine on our return. The menu is in a state of transition and upgrade, so we had different entrees which were also as good as our previous. We highly recommend Ovide!
