We've eaten here before and chose it again as the place to celebrate our wedding anniversary. This is because of the excellent and authenticate French cuisine and drinks - even the butter is French! It's actually pretty reasonably priced considering the quality of the food. The staff were absolutely excellent and never made us feel rushed and were more than willing to explain the dishes. We'd recommend them without hesitation, especially if you love French food served in a authenticate French atmosphere.

First time diner and I like the restaurant. It serves very well cooked, authentic french food. As such the menu is aimed at people who like french food and is mostly limited to the classics (steak and frites, duck, boeuf bourgignon, steak tartare, crepe suzette, creme brulee etc) . For entree we shared a tomato salad with white anchovies, olives and basil which I loved but my wife had some minor criticisms. She thought it was presented a bit too rustically, it was light on with the anchovies and she also noticed the basil was nowhere to be seen. We both enjoyed the fish of the day, Schnapper with beurre blanc sauce, which was nicely cooked and everything was piping hot. I had a crepe with icecream and calvados which was delicious.

Would highly recommend this hidden gem of a restaurant! The food was definitely french, serving sizes were just right for a three course dinner, and the atmosphere was intimate but also conducive to dining with friends. I had the sardines for entree, duck for mains and crepes for dessert - YUM!!! The staff were attentive and answered any questions we had. We will be returning customers.
