    Loved the scallops, grouper and rack of lamb. Escargo had too much parsley; butter sauce was green! Could not taste the garlic butter for the parsley. I could not eat them. Brussel sprouts were sour and not tasty. I did not eat them.

    I had no experience with French food prior to my visit. Thought the sausage was drier than I was familiar with. Previously the baked garlic I had as an appetizer was one large garlic. Their version was three small ones. Tasty, but more work to dig them out. Other diners were happy with the mural they had.

    Great choice for a special occasion. Pricey, but worth it. Exceptional service. Our server Kyle was friendly, attentive but didn’t hover! Highly recommend.
