    Peter was the best waiter ever! Food excellent, albeit pricey, but we knew that when we went there. We didn't have to wait with our 7:30 reservations. Web site said corkage fee was $15 and they charged us $20.

    We sat at the Chef's Bar. It was cozy and so interesting watching the chef's cook. Jake was our server. He was outstanding. It was our first time at the restaurant, and he guided us beautifully through the menu, including by telling us HIS favorite dishes, which we always appreciate. Service was amazing; we never felt rushed, and our meal was timed perfectly. The food -- gosh, just next level. Even the classics were elevated by care of preparation, extra layers of taste, and beauty of presentation. At some places, these strengths come with a trade-off in smaller portions -- not here; the servings are generous. We started by sharing the beet salad and the onion soup gratin, then the mussels and fries for me and the Big Mec and fries for her; we finished with the triple-chocolate soufflé (chocolate soufflé, chocolate sauce, snd chocolate sorbet). The fries are cooked in clarified butter rather than oil, which makes for a cleaner potato taste. All the food was outstanding. The prices were fair in relation to value. Oh, and an excellent sidecar cocktail to start. And the baguette with a quality of butter that you can't get at the supermarket. Amazing place, wish we'd discovered it sooner, and will now return frequently. Amazing meal and fun evening!!!

    Lovely night. Service was fabulous. Food was terrific. Lots of complex tastes and prep. They never make things "normally." Special. If you want a quiet experience, make sure to ask for the back dining room. Upstairs would probably be quiet too. Louder and livelier in the front room.
