    Russell, our waiter, was the nicest human but also had great recommendations. Filet is 10/10. Lamb chops, very good. Drinks were amazing. They turned down the music a little for our larger table to hear each other. Vibes were lovely and highly recommend this spot.

    They didn’t serve an item on the menu I was going to order. The waitress said it was because the restaurant was no longer ‘French’! It also was VERY noisy. Finally, the fish I had to order because they weren’t ’French’ wasn’t cooked properly.

    our server was not personable or friendly. i think her name was Anna. she had somewhat of an attitude. did not like the fact that the check could not be broken down with what each diner owed individually. not fair to the diners that didn't order wine or full meals. made it very difficult on our guests. will not return unless that check policy changes.

    Great holiday dinner. Our waitress Noel was awesome. One of our drinks came and was not made properly, Noel went back and got it handled. Food was fabulous. Holiday decor perfect.

    Disappointed in the food - salmon was fishy and halibut was bland and dry. Dessert and service were great though… not worth the price.
