Excellent service, they really catered to my sisters dietary restrictions. We had a lovely meal and couldn’t have asked for a better service! The tuna tarter I tried was one of the best I’ve had. Highly highly recommend. We also tried the seasonal salad, curry mussels, and the chicken. All delicious!

Perfect Mussels, French Onion Soup, Sea Bass Roasted to Perfection, Halibut prepared meticulously in parchment, and some of the best burgers and frites to go with them. Topped off with crazy delicious nutella bignets and we went home in culinary heaven. Keep it up and let us know when you earn your Michelin stars !!

The burger, and the case for it
There is a burger on a French carte, and it is not an apology. Comté, cornichon, crispy échalote and bacon on brioche, and the same beef as the steaks.
