I always love Nice Matin but there is nothing on the menu suitable for a 4 yr old child. I was surprised that there were no child portions.

Service is spotty. Constantly had to wave down waiter. Water glasses sat empty. Noise level unpleasantly high. Food was good but not exceptional.

I had not been here in years - the vibe remains, the noise level is high making it hard to hear conversations at the table. The menu reads wonderfully but if only the execution matched how good it all sounds. The mushroom tart was delicious but tiny. The salade nicoise seemed slapped together - the tuna properly prepared but the rest of the salad lackluster. Why use cardboard tasting tomatoes when other options exist? The other veges in the salad just did not shine. Moules were delicious and the apple crostada was sublime.
