My wife and I celebrated our 46th anniversary at this lovely restaurant. From the moment we arrived we were greeted with warm wishes from the front desk and all the servers. We were treated to excellent service. The food was very tasty, the ambience was “buzzing” and the pianist played non stop, adding to the mood of the room. The complimentary desert was much appreciated.

We had a very lovely dinner at Is That French for my birthday. They were super accommodating for our two guests that have allergies and everything was absolutely delicious. We tried most of the dishes on the menu, the scallops are a must try!
