   I was with my children. They are teenagers and very well behaved. Our order was incorrect and had to be restated to the kitchen. The service was friendly but slow and untrained to handle a steady flow of customers. Ambiance is stunning. Food was ok. The service requires formal training. I would return for drinks at the bar. Unlikely to return to eat with the children.

   Amine was our server, and he was incredible!! Attentive, friendly, and full of great recommendations. I had the filet with green beans paired with the Chardonnay Amine suggested, and it was amazing. The atmosphere felt like something out of a movie—very old-school and charming. Everything was perfect! I highly recommend asking for Amine for outstanding service and recommendations.

   My fiancé and I came here with our families to celebrate our engagement and we could not have asked for better service. Moussine made the night spectacular and made us feel special! We will definitely be coming and asking for Moussine. 10/10 experience

   We were very excited to see the holiday decorations, but overall experience was just fine. Far too expensive for the quality of service. Arrived 5 minutes early for our reservation at 6:45 and weren’t seated until 7, though many people with 7:00 reservations were seated ahead of us (they checked in immediately ahead of us). We were seated by the bar which was fine but noisy, and there were other tables that might have been further out of the bustle. True to the French style, our table was also incredibly close to our neighbors, and I felt like we were dining with them rather than the private anniversary dinner it was supposed to be. Service during was fine, nothing standout and we were often forgotten, having to ask multiple times for additional bread. We were seated immediately next to a bussing station, and there were some staff issues occurring, which we overheard all of the heated disagreements clearly; not the best environment while having a special dinner or great optics for the restaurant. For the price, I’d much rather go somewhere that has a better experience. Gorgeous building and decor though.

   Was there for to celebrate a big birthday for a two older men and seems no one read the notes on the reservation so we first were ask to sit right by the Kitchen when I asked to sit upstairs in my reservation. The soup was warm (not hot), had to send it back. escargot was not hot ust warm. Ribeye was middle well when I asked for rare but I just ate it as the Waiter never around/ to busy. the coffee was not hot. They need to upgrade their staff service for such a beautiful elegant place. Just have staff check in on your dinning experience so you aren't looking around. Just not up to pair. Disappointing

    Overall pretty disappointed with our experience. Had a 5:15 reservation so we could make a 7:30 musical. Checked in right on time but took 20 minutes for our table to be ready. Then we just sat at the table for another 15-20 minutes with no waiter. As it approached 6 pm I was getting more and more worried about missing the show. I had to flag down a waiter who was very nice but it led to us feeling stressed and rushed the whole time. The food was not great. I’d say approaching average at best. Also random but the host stand is right in front of the entrance which lead to the door being constantly blocked, plus you walk through long curtains which seem classy but were blowing in your face as you waited and led to people constantly running into each other at the entrance. The space itself was beautiful and the staff were kind, I think they were just overbooked and understaffed. Overall we rushed through a several hundred dollar meal that was a disappointment. Get a drink at the bar to see the space but skip dinner.
