I’m not really giving it a 1 across the board. It’s just that the restaurant was closed and had been closed for three weeks but I still made reservations through this app.

Considering they are out of business and we wasted our time showing up with a useless reservation, it was an awesome experience.

Amazing food! I had a pear salad that had great flavor and left me wanting more, my dining partner had a cold cucumber soup that had great taste and texture. We both had shrimp ravioli that was very tasty, had a great presentation and aroma! Desserts we had the blackberry cobbler and bread pudding and both were perfect! Great service and ambience overall, not crowded or noisy!

Secret oasis on Frenchmen! We felt like we were climbing a staircase to an old speak easy...nicely done interior ...you enter through the bar. We sat out on the balcony as it wasn't too hot. Nice to watch the Frenchman craziness from above. Wine was delicious and reasonably priced... choices for every palate. The tapas and smalls were elegant in presentation and taste. Enjoyed listening to the jazz music below in a less touristy atmosphere.
