From France to Florida … Family owned and operated since 2008, enjoy authentic French bistro fare like Beef Bourguignon and Pork tenderloin in a black pepper and Cognac sauce directly from Grandma's recipe book. Small and cozy modern place, ideal for sharing a delightful moment with friends or an intimate and romantic dinner.

Alexandra & Jean-Christophe (JC) will be glad to welcome you every week days for Lunch-Dinner and Breakfast-Lunch-Dinner Saturday and Sunday.

A large wine and Champagne list or a nice traditional French dessert as “creme brulee” or multiple sweet crepes will finish this authentic French experience.
You can also enjoy no more than 80 different items : crepes sweet or savory, sandwiches in freshly baked baguette, quiches and traditional French salads everyday at breakfast and lunch time.

    Went there for our anniversary. Would have been nice to have some acknowledgment of that since we let them know in advance. Food was very nice, ambience was busy but not too loud. Enjoyed the evening.

    This charming French restaurant is fabulously authentic. Bread, onion soup, mussels, are “best on earth”…it’s all just so damned good. The dishes will transport you to France, the sauces are over the top. Inside is cozy and warm. Sit cafe style outside with candle light, you might be in Paris.

    We always enjoyed coming to this restaurant it’s always consistent. My lamb chops this time were brought out to me late and were raw. It had to be sent back. But they made me a brand new order. Desserts were sooo good! We will return as we always do!
