We had a group celebration meal at lunch time and, as always, the cuisine was perfection. The wine and table service were also excellent, along with the warm welcome we have always experienced. I booked with confidence for our group, knowing everyone would enjoy a superb lunch, which they did. Merci à tous ❤️

4th time visiting always enjoy food. Service was slow due to volume of clients. The waitress forgot my wife's drink I asked the barman directly who served our drink. The main server was not happy with this and halfway through our drink came to our table and placed our bill on the table and walked away. We both thought this was rude as we had not asked for the bill. After challenging him he apologised. This however left a bad taste in our mouths and spoilt the end of our evening. Not sure if we'll return now.
