Totally phenomenal casual French restaurant. Usually French is expensive and stuffy but not here. Decent price, cute restaurant and nice outdoor seating in back. Has all the classics you want along with delicious updated cuisine. Staff is very nice too!

This is one of our favorite breakfast spots! Opens nice and early and doesn’t disappoint. Lovely staff and the best atmosphere- it can be super busy but never feels crowded or cramped. Love the home fries, lamb sausages and bowls of coffee!

Who can beat getting 1 oysters. We had oysters from Connecticut which were so good that we wanted to order a second dozen but had to control ourselves because we had lunch to go to. Great French atmosphere. efficient service. Their blood Marys were good.

Great place, great food, great environment. The staff is friendly and very kind. They should advertise their patio a bit more since it's a very good atmosphere. French restaurant indeed, authentic cuisine and good wines. First time but definetly not my last time

One of my favourite restaurants in the city. The best escargots you'll ever have and you can hold me to that. The menu's very reasonably priced for the quality you receive, large portions which are ideal for a heavy eater like myself. Staff seem to have a real kinship for one another. Great atmosphere and I've never left feeling anything less than satisfied.

Came here for the first time with my boyfriend and we LOVED it. we sat in the garden at about 9pm and it was so lovely. I ordered the lamb sausages and although they were delicious, I was hoping that the portion would have been even just slightly bigger for the price you pay. Our waiter was wonderful, recommended the wine we ordered which was great, and overall very attentive. Had a great time :)

Nice cozy west village restaurant. Had Daurade Sauce Vierge and Classic Coq au Vin - no complaints at all, which is a perfect finish of our "Wonder Woman" night on Sunday.
