    Stick to the appetizers: foie gras double down, meat pie and shaved truffles, and compote de lapin rule!

    You can't go wrong with the steaks. Everyone is super helpful - if you don't understand French just ask!

    Apparently the fois gras double down will change your life but the bathroom in the main dining room is the greatest treat ever

    Difficult to say, I was expecting a wow moment after waiting so long for reservation. Next time, I will try the aged beef, because the rest was ok but not special. Cozy ambience, not a bad service.

    Sit at the bar and you'll get the most attentive service in the restaurant. Order whatever the staff tells you.

    impeccable yet unpretentious fine-dining level service, though the food was somewhat underwhelming on my visit. i'd skip the wait and walk down the street to vin papillon instead.

    The food is overpriced for what it is. Was expecting to be blown away but it’s just…good. The lobster spaghetti is delightful but nothing else stood out.

    Had to make reservation three months in advance. This place is expensive. Not sure the food is worthy of the price tags. Had a good experience though.
