    Most of the food was served lukewarm. The waitress was great and the ambiance was perfect. We ordered the cold crab dip, the escargots, a filet, grouper, mashed potatoes and profiteroles. Everything, except the profiteroles, was underwhelming. The prices were high but the food did not rise to that.

    Aside from waiting for a while to be seated past our reservation time it was a very enjoyable experience. Sat at the chef’s table.

    This was the first time we’ve had food here that wasn’t all amazing. The quiche was lukewarm and its texture was rubbery rather than fluffy. Everything else was very good, just disappointed in the quiche as I expected better.

    Great experience from the time we walked in until we left. The ambiance, the waitress, the food, the unhurried pace all contributed to a wonderful couple of hours.
