Cheers to the Chef & staff who make this unique, small dining room full of entertainment & food that will live on in your dreams! We ordered everything our server recommended, & it hit the spot every time. The standout dish for me... the sweetbreads. If it's on the menu, try it!

Très bonne bouffe, staff très accueillant. Unique élément à améliorer est la ventilation considérant la proximité avec la cuisine

This was one of the best meals we’ve ever had & we eat out A LOT & have travelled all over. We were 4 people & ordered everything off the menu to try.
The black pudding, sweet bread, beef & fois gras, fish cake were stand out but the entire meal was just exceptional!

The staff are so wonderful, great characters, they stand up at the beginning of service & explain the menu to the entire restaurant which was a unique touch. They recommended great wines to pair with our meal. We will recommend this place to everyone we know. Thank you for such a great experience.

Ambiance plus que chaleureuse & amicale. Un resto comme à la maison, sans aucune prétention!!!
Concept unique & original, bouffe gastronomique dans un décor atypique « de vieil appartement ». Un contraste savoureux 😊!!
