One of the most memorable meals I've had in Boston! Not your average French fare. Flavors are bold and menu is fairly inventive, especially for a French-style bistro. I will return...soon!

Our dining experience was fantastic from beginning to end; we enjoyed every moment. We even had a good laugh over the mix-up with the wagyu, but honestly, it turned out to be the best we've ever had. I can't think of a single dish or dessert we didn't love, and a big shoutout to Jared, the pastry chef, for making my early birthday dinner special. I really hope no 9 sticks around because the food here is the best in the city. Again thank you for amazing evening

Everything we ordered was fantastic, from the appetizers to the drinks to the entrees. As a bread roll enthusiast, I have to give a shout-out to the best rolls I think I've ever had. Seriously folks, I'd come back here again just to have the bread rolls - they really were that good. Come here to have a great time, feel like a million bucks, and eat some exquisite food.
