    Delightful staff, delicious corn veloute and duck breast. The only bummer was walking in and seeing a bunch of dirty glasses and dishes in the counter where I thought I was supposed to sit. Fortunately counter seating was at a different bar, with a much better and cozier vibe. The dirty dishes sat there though, but honestly, I think there were maybe two tables in the entire restaurant who could see them. So not a big deal at all.

    Over the top!! The food was delicious (escargot, seared Foie Gras, Dover Sole and Beef Bourguignon.) The waiter outstanding. Professional. Very well trained. The welcoming staff were accommodating and gracious. Lovely, elegant, upscale in ambiance, and (I feel) reasonable prices. We will definitely be going back for a special occasion or romantic date night.

    While I accidentally ordered the wrong meal, the ribeye and fries were superb. Great flavor on the steak. The table-side, deboned whole fish were tender and moist. The pear tart dessert was magnificent and the service was stellar.

    We love this restaurant. Rarely there on a weekend night. They were slammed. Service was delayed. But as usual. The pod was fabulous
