So happy to find this Brooklyn gem on Thanksgiving during a long layover. Food was cooked to perfection and so delicious. I highly recommend the beef Wellington. I don’t know if it is a regular menu item.

Fabulous dinner and drinks on the lovely sidewalk cafe! Excellent service, too. Highly recommend the French 85 and Oui Mademoiselle cocktails. The truffle gnocchi is outstanding! The lava cake, bread pudding and crème brûlée each received rave reviews. Highly recommend!
