Our servier, Noemie was fantastic! She was very attentive but not intrusive. She got our orders accurately and our drinks throughout our meal were served promptly. The person who brought our drinks and dessert was also very attentive. It may have been the owner, not sure. It was our anniversary and they brought a complimentary glass of champagne for each of us which was a lovely gesture. The food was also amazing. We will definitely go back.
