My brother took me here on Tuesday for my birthday- and what a treat!! Although we were seated about 15 minutes after our reservation, the bar was friendly and we enjoyed some delicious champagne... Our table was adorable and right next to the hand-painted walls, and our server was so friendly and refreshingly honest! The rest of the staff and even the other patrons were so relaxed and happy. I THOROUGHLY enjoyed the Foie Gras (my first time having it- wow. so good) and the Lemon Pepper Duck. Although the inside of the duck was quite juicy, the outside was a little over-cooked for my taste. And then as a surprise and "compliments of the server" - they brought me a delicious dessert complete with candle. I'd definitely say that the chef really enjoys the natural taste/flavor of meat and doesn't over-season it, and it seems the ambiance only compliments the delightful service and food. I would go back in a HEARTBEAT. Thank you so much for such a wonderful evening!
Pros: Extremely relaxed, friendly staff, ambiance, Delicious food, fantastic Foie Gras!
Cons: 15 minutes late on seating...
