    This is one of our favorite places. The oysters were amazing. We ordered a dozen and had to go ahead and order an extra half dozen. Great champagne options at amazing prices! Mussels, fantastic! The fries were also perfect. Dip them in the broth. Delicious. The atmosphere is also great. Low lighting, great music. It was our Valentine Dinner but we went on Saturday. Perfect date night.

    What a night in Paris, the ambiance was amazing moderate but yet very appropriate for the evening. Started the evening with a quick drink at the bar while we waited for our table. Then got seated to our table, started with SOUPE À L’OIGNON which was amazing very flavorful and the perfect amount of Gruyère cheese. For our entree my wife ordered the SAUMON RÔTI and I ordered the FAUX-FILET BERCY medium rare. The meal was amazing and we will definitely be coming back! Had to end the night with a CRÈME BRÛLÉE and BASQUE CHEESECAKE w/ mixed berry coulis. (Also took the PROFITEROLES to go).
