    The only place in the DMV area where I've found escargot still in the shell! Food and service were impeccable.

    Waitress was amazing. What a hustler! Every table was full which made it very noisy. I didn’t want to talk to compete with the noise. 2 crab cakes were over $60 but were mostly filling and more like stuffing. Everything else was that we ate very good.

    We love eating here - it is one of the best places to eat in Downtown Annapolis. Enjoy a wonderful night of French cuisine along with some wine - you'll love it.

    Went here for Annapolis Restaurant Week. The food was absolutely delicious. French onion soup and clam chowder, trout almandine and mussels with fries, and eclair and fruit tart. We also ordered bread which was extra, and a half bottle of wine. Everything was awesome. The service was relaxed as the restaurant was full. Just like going to a Paris bistro. Always have a good meal here!
