This is a cozy gem of a place, half a block away from the busier streets. We were unlucky enough to be there on an evening when a chef had called in sick, so the main dishes on the menu were not available. Welcome to the world of small restaurants--& hence only four stars rather than five, since we didn't get back during our short stay & couldn't really sample the whole menu. But the onion soup was delicious, & the salad & open face sandwich we had were fine. The service was first rate & very friendly. We'd love to try them again sometime.

Excellente nourriture, entrées de pieuvre, ceviche de pétoncles & foie gras poêlé.
Conseil & service du vin OK.
MAIS très très, longue attente entre chaque service, des olives à chacune des entrées & au dessert, & nous avons dû demander des serviettes & des ustensiles.
