Simply perfect – approachable French-inspired cuisine in a cozy atmosphere with very reasonable prices. Our dinner last night was marred slightly by the drunken foursome to our left, screeching incoherently at each other throughout dinner. But otherwise, everything was perfect – the pate de foie was smooth and creamy, a good ‘starter’ pate with mild taste. The wine list is worth a special mention – it is carefully curated, no placeholders at all, and no crazy markups either. Service was warm and genuine, not stuffy at all, our waitress patiently explained (without condescension) all about the unusual veal preparation that night. Highly recommended.

Best restaurant in the area. The Gnocchi was the best I’ve ever had and the rabbit dish was amazing. Service was great and the atmosphere was sublime. This is the gem of the valley.

For the price there should have been more flavor, fish skin was mushy and so was the bacon, and veggies should be cooked more. Lamb was good though it was a new experience but won’t be coming back.

Great atmosphere for a date, a group, or just going solo. Simple yet sophisticated menu, pleasant wait and bar staff, delicious combination of cocktail, wine, and cuisine.

Disappointing appetizers, made up for by fantastic entrees. Server was noticeably busy, but made an effort all the same. Well-made desserts. :: Mussels were overcooked in an unbalanced, over-wined broth, fries fell short but were alright. Pork confit was perfectly cooked and served with an amazing sauce to pair. Ossobuco was large, tender, and delicious. Suggested wine pairings fell flat.

IT IS CLOSED NOW. I’M SAD. Some of the best food ever. Some dishes are a little over seasoned. Stuck with the plain fare. Eat the filet but not the beef bourginane
