    1) My advance request for a QUIET table wasn't honored. I had to point out the quiet table to the hostess. 2) The waitress service was just the right tone of pleasant and performing. In the future I will know to ask for a pot of hot water, instead of just a cup. Also with the pot another cup for holding the stale water. 3) I was very pleased with my escargots, and I asked for extra bread--which was excellent. However, when at my request, the bread was packed, the butter was omitted. 4) I hope to eat my way thru your menu for its fresh food and excellent execution. 5) I have found that tipping 1/3rd results in attentive wait staff that looks well nourished.
