My husband and I went to this restaurant last night and enjoyed our experience immensely. The food was fabulous and extremely good value for the central London location (down a little back street in Marylebone that you wouldn't know was there!). I had the cheese fondue (one of my favorites!), and my husband had the duck confit, which he declared was one of the best duck confits he's had. There was also an excellent choice of wines. We chose a fairly expensive bottle of red, but it was worth it as it was delicious and complemented the food perfectly. The service was quick, efficient, and friendly, and the place had a nice cozy ambiance and felt very authentically French. We will definitely be returning in the near future!
