   Beautiful space, great ambience, and excellent service. Sadly, the food didn’t wow. The white asparagus would have been wonderful, but several pieces were so stringy they were impossible to cut. The steak tartare was very nice- impeccably fresh and flavorful. The duck was a bit tough and lacking in flavor. The cauliflower was so unappetizing to look at that we didn’t even try it- it was just so brown….However, the French fries are truly the best I’ve had in a long time- crisp, salty, and fried to golden brown perfection. Those alone will get me back in the door, and I’m hopeful that my next visit will prove that I just came on an off night. Lots to like here.

   This is my first visit and we split several things on the menu. Everything was delicious. The cabbage Caesar was a great twist on a classic. The beef cheeks were excellent as was the crudo.

   We were really excited to try this place but it was pretty lame, the food was meh and it was expensive for what it was.

   The restaurant has charming decor and ambiance. Our server was a cheerful and competent young man. The food leaves a lot to desire. The asparagus soup- a spring special- was bitter with a stringy consistency and off putting color. It was taken off our check as I could not eat more than a spoon of it. The scrambled eggs on toast were great. The winter greens were tasty but were not on vol- au- vent, as indicated on menu but on a piece of toast instead. The lamb merguez sandwich was adequate.

    Anthony D was a great server, he took care of us and immediately knew what to do when I told him it was my daughter's birthday, I appreciate the response and made our experience great. Food was very good, mostly inventive. I guess it's a gastropub so treat the entrees like larger tapas dishes, order a few to share from the mains list (we ordered ratatouille and treated it like an app) . One negative about the place was a smell of cigarette smoke perhaps coming from the room next door where they were having a private party. No one was smoking at the bar or dining room. Since all resto's have been smoke free for so long, it's really obvious when people are smoking.
