    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.

    Mixed quality. Steak tartare was good but toast was very burnt. Fish en papilotte was excellent, but steak was burnt and sauce was lacking in flavor.
