We had no problem getting a Saturday night reservation. It was a beautiful Match evening and we sat on the patio, which was lovely. The service was very good. The food was great. Husband had moules fritte, which he said were perfect. They come with shoestring fries which were sooooo good. I had the bibb salad, which was so good I practically licked the plate. Then the gnocchi which was also very nice. The wine selection was also on point. Would go back!!

We sat for over 30 minutes without anyone attending to us and the inside was full and it was chilly outside and no available heater for my friend to warm up, when they finally to our drink order we waited another 20 minutes without anyone attending no drink, we had to leave because my friend had a flight to catch! It was the first time for me and of course my friend coming from out of town, so we never get to experience the food to any comment ….. very disappointing experience
