    Oh it was the most wonderful evening! The waiter was on top of things the food was so so good (my date was French and he loved it!). He had escargot and the Salmon. I had the endive salad and the boullibase. We had a bottle of Rose the bread basket and Creme brulee for dessert. Wonderful. Highly recommend. Make reservations and get there early as they ran out of one of the specials we wanted by 8pm. We will be back!

    We really enjoyed late lunch at Petrossian on Jan 4 for our 44th wedding anniversary. Appreciated the complimentary champagne and non-alcoholic French Bloom. I loved the omelette, he the croque madame. The desserts, chocolate souffle for me and chestnut puree with gold leaf for him, were excellent and beautiful to look at. Service so attentive.
