    I loveeee the mussels here. They have a spacious backyard and host a lot of parties/weddings etc. it's very pretty in warm months and cozy in the cold ones.

    The mussels were fantastic! Great wine selection. Highly suggest the Margaux. Very authentic. Ask to sit in the garden. Our waitress was lovely!!

    All you can eat Moules-frites on Wed! Slamming dessert, great wine list, beautiful dinning al fresco, amazing burgers & cafe next door. Steak special was too fatty 4 me. Le "sigh". Servers are great.

    Been coming here for years and is one of my favorite neighborhood places. Always solid food, great staff, excellent wine list. I love the backyard in the warmer months.

    Very nice place owned by very pleasant people. I recommend it for the food quality, service and for the hidden terrace behind. I spent a very nice moment with 2 of my friends.

    Great lunch spot, especially on a nice weekend when you can sit in the garden. The salads are great; my favorite is the Goat cheese salad. Service has always been decent for me.

    Tried a new place in the neighborhood...Bacchus ended up a mistake. Questionable ambiance/menu. If you want French, worth it to walk a few extra blocks to Bar Tabac or French Louie.

    Bacchus bakes some of the best croissants in the neighborhood. A perfect cafe for morning snack.

    I have had brunch, lunch and dinner here. Sometimes dessert and wine on Sundays. Everything is tasty- staff is super friendly, and champagne by the glass. Enough said :)

    Owner's take: According to the hands-on owners, the wine's the thing—many by the glass, 200 by the bottle, plus a focus on bar food like terrines, tartines, cheese, and charcuterie. Read more

    Contrary to a couple of the other tips, we got good service here. And the lady totally had a cool French accent. Goat cheese appetizer rules. Salmon had too many lentils.

    Extensive wine list and decent escargot. Staff is friendly but a bit rowdy with one another, so not a place for a quite convo.

    As much as we love the place, the service is becoming sketchy. We had to wait for more than 30 minutes for a table we reserved. None of the tables around were served. A pity..the food is great though!

    As others have noted, beautiful garden and nice quality of food. As also noted, service is spotty - friendly enough but slow even when the place isn't busy.

    Sacrebleu, the service here is so comically poor it's like a Monty Python skit about a French cafe, but the garden is lovely and the Croque Madame is excellent.

    This place is getting worse and worse. 40 min wait for lunch with nearly empty place. The meat was greasy and the salad was drown in a ton of sauce.
