It was cold throughout the restaurant, regardless of location. Food was a mixed result: some very good, some so overly rich it was almost sickening. Wait staff was very sweet but forgetful.

It’s like being in a quieter Parisian neighborhood brasserie right down the street here in Brookline. The staff remember you if you’ve dined here before and they never rush you. The food is delicious and comes out promptly. Love it.

The offer a prix fix menu and an a al carte menu. I was looking forward to a specific entree that was not on the a la carte menu and they accommodated my request happily. We started with the chacuterie board with wine. It was lovely. It included a lovely brie, duck pate, slices of duck, pickles and prosciutto. Our entrees were perfectly cooked and delicious. Our servers were attentive and not intrusive My friends and I really enjoyed this experience and highly recommend a trip. I would not suggest for small children, the atmosphere is more adult as is the menu.
