    The Vandal was fantastic! Glad the smoked Trout Rillettes are back. Smoked Beets and Fig sdish was out of this world. Shared the great Steak Frites! Great service and wine.

    They need a curtain over the door when it’s cold- the draft is tough.

    We shared a bunch of appetizers and small plates, rather than having a main. Every plate was incredible and delicious. Bar service is always top notch too. Love this place.
