Le calme pour décor, le voyage dans l'assiette. Ce restaurant est une magnifique surprise : le cadre est somptueux, le service est vif & efficace, & la cuisine s'invite en table d'abondance. Coup de coeur absolu pour leur carte.

Charming waiter, great historic vibe. The food lost one star as I found the duck confit on the salad (even though warmed) to be a little dry. The dessert however, maple syrup pie was 6 🌟!

A classic French restaurant with a small but well-curated menu that delivers traditional French flavors. The Beef Wellington was well executed & enjoyable. Unfortunately, the French onion soup was overly salty. I was also disappointed that the Chef's Choice was another puff pastry dish with ham & cheese. Since we had already ordered the Beef Wellington, it felt repetitive rather than thoughtfully paired. The food was good overall, but the preparation lacked the variety & creativity I expected from chef's choice.

The absolute best French onion soup I have ever had. Perfect yummy cheesy crust & a delicious broth a must have to start. I had grandmas treats as my main & it was perfect. Service was awesome & the venue is so old & historical. Just a great dining experience.
