Wonderful and lively spot. Generous portions of delicious food. Only negative were the fries. They are basically McDonalds but not as good. Too thin not hot enough and not like France. You measure a French bistro by fries, steak, duck, coq au vin and a couple other items but fries are sub par here. The steak au poivre wsd delicious, tender and very good. Other items as well as drink pours were excellent.

I love this place and return regularly because, while the dining room looks rather plain, the sushi is consistently excellent!
