    Post Ballet dinner. Both light eaters so we shared starter/entree /side. Fig tart/duck risotto/mushrooms. All lovely. Service was perfect. We were a small tab but treated to great service. The warm crusty french bread was lovely too. We’ll be back!

    Service was poor. It took over an hour to receive our food after placing order. Also our waitress was double masked so it was difficult to communicate with her.

    I ordered the sole meuniere which was delicious and filling. My husband got the filet au poivre, which he said was delicious as well, but it wasn't that great for the price ($74). The waiter was attentive and got the ceiling fan stopped so the chilly air didn't blow on us. We sat in a nice cozy area. Wine prices were ridiculous but that's always the way in a restaurant. Overall a good value for a special occasion.
