Wonderful food and delightful outdoor patio in the back.
Rob PhillipsOctober 25, 2015
Americanized French food... Croissants were more like a brioche, pain perdu had a heavy dose of orange blossom flower that killed it and merguez was not merguez. Warning all French customers to not go

On the weekends, especially on Sunday's, be prepared to wait a while for a table. Stupidly, though, they don't take AMEX

Don't believe their wait times, they always overestimate. Just say yes to 40 mins, walk over to Pegesus Books for 20 mins.
