Everything about the experience was just okay. Service was slow and they spilled water/wine on our table a couple times while pouring. The food didn’t have much flavor to it and several things weren’t cooked properly (for example, the carrots were undercooked). The duck dish had the most flavor but many of the other dishes were bland.

The lamb chops are pretty good. We don’t like the duck liver. The roasted duck is a bit too dry.

1. Food: The lamb was good, but the duck liver was of low quality and lacked flavor.

Three entrees, three appetizers, one dessert. Every single bite of every single item was superb. Excellent food, excellent service. Authentic but not pretentious. Please don’t tell anybody else, we keep it or little secret. “I like it, I love it, I want some more of it. ”

What a disappointment! I was looking forward to getting some French food, but we were only able to taste the coldness and rudeness from our waiter. First of all he was unfriendly from the minute we stepped in the restaurant. When I asked if they had a kids menu, he replied: “Of course not!”. What does it mean??? A bistro is supposed to be a casual restaurant not a Michelin star restaurant. Are they too high-end to serve families with kids?

Authentic French adapted to today’s palate of less heavy sauces. Chef has a deft touch with subtle flavors, clearly attentive to details of spice combinations (but a bit heavy-handed on salt in my beef dish, would take off only 1/2 star if I could). Lovely setting if a bit empty in these pandemic times… but it was a Tue night. The salad was surprisingly well finished despite looking relatively unadorned. Onion soup thick and satisfying. Duck L’Orange had a subtle sauce (not overly sweet) with zest & fresh orange slices, quite a lot of duck meat – a tad overdone. Filet Mignon Madagascar was PERFECT in done-ness (I asked for “the done side of med rare”); the sauce would be better with 20% less salt to make it more palatable & let the peppery taste stand out. I appreciated the added subtle spices added to the side vegetables only. The dessert of Tart Tatin (apple tart) was heavenly – the apple tasted airy & light. Service very attentive; the proprietress took great photos of us.

Fantastic as always. Great service and the food is marvelous. I am so glad they survived the pandemic – we got their food to go a few times in the past 3 years. It’s special actually being there after all this time.

We had our 10th anniversary with take out dinner order. We were very satisfied with beautiful and tasty French cuisines. We ordered one appetizer, two entrees and one dessert.
