So lucky to have such a wonderful place for a night out. Thursday night Steak Frites continue to be outstanding and clearly appreciated based on a full house last night on a cold January evening. The food is scrumptious, fairly portioned and served by table staff with knowledge and style. Wonderfully accommodating front of house staff get all the tables just right. Gitanes... mmmm.

We had a lovely evening with excellent food and service. The oysters were fresh, delicious and served with 2 sauces that really elevated the taste. Another stand out dish was the seafood chowder, really delicious. We enjoyed the rest of the meal and I loved the pumpkin cheesecake for dessert. Also noted that our cappuccinos were very good. I would highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to going again.
