Fromage, fromage! Baked Brie was wonderful as was the spectacular bowl of French onion soup. We both had the lobster Mac and cheese which did not disappoint, delightfully presented in the lobster tail shell. There are numerous more items on the menu we look forward to savoring on forthcoming visits.
