    We arrived about 15 minutes prior to the dinner service and were seated right away anyway. The owner was very gracious and recited the appetizer specials and then the entrée specials of the day. Service was so good that we hardly noticed plates/flatware/glasses being exchanged for new ones. The food was awesome and everything you want in French bistro. The atmosphere was very pleasant as more and more diners arrived. We were never rushed. I was dining with an old friend and of course we much to catch up on. I kept a close watch on the amount of empty tables as not to overstay our welcome. When we got our bill, realized it was over 3 hours since we arrived and again, never felt rushed. Because of that we over tipped to thank the fantastic staff and then personally thanked our gracious host (owner). We will return again to explore the menu further. Thank you, thank you thank you.
