    over rated, over priced. Food was mediocre at best, and service on par with food. We were party of 4, one ordered a filet medium rare but a received a well done steak. The steak was replaced, without even an apology.

    Food just ok, nothing special. The food preparation should be given a lot more attention and be treated with a much higher level of skill. Quality just not there. A number of dishes / sides served were cold or just not quite hot enough. Guessing a few things sat a little to long before other things were ready to come out. Service was good, a lot of very nervous waiters though still refining their skills. Definitely working at it though. All in all service was as appreciated.

    My table was next to the exterior window and you could here drummers outside more than the musicians inside. The two did not blend well and made dinner less enjoyable than it would have been without the outside drummers.

    The food, the service, the music were excellent. The banane flambée is a must! Our waiter took the time to explain many of the dishes and made great recommendations. It was a fun and exquisite experience.
