Food is good. Ambience is great. A little overpriced, but to be expected. Parking SUCKS. Valet has limited spots. Be warned!

Menu is somewhat limited. Onion soup is just ok - I missed having a very cheesy top. No basic coffee choices, just specialties (hazelnut cappuccino was good flavor but didn’t come hot). Burgers are huge and tasty. Our friends thought the chocolate torte was dry and not very flavorful.

The food was really tasty, but the portions were very small. However, I was very thankful that the lunch menu was made available for the Thanksgiving meal since my mother is vegan.

The food was amazing, but the service was terrible. We requested a patio table near a heater, but we were given the only table on the patio that didn’t have a heater nearby. We kindly asked if a heater could be brought over when one became available, but it was forgotten. The service was extremely slow. Our waitress was friendly, but she was never available when we needed her. It took more than an hour before we were able to place our food order. Because they were trying to close the kitchen on time, we were forced to order desserts while still eating our main courses. While I would still come back for food and happy hour, I will never host a birthday dinner here again.

It's a very nice setting, the French onion soup was the best, the entrees were not really authentic French style but overall fresh and the sticky pudding dessert was excellent! Limited wine list and the espresso came very cold, but they replaced with a hot one! Overall good!

The food were so-so for the price. The tapinade was salty. I notified Vanessa, our waitress and she said she would take it off the bill but did not. Sadly, I didn't realize it until after I got home.
