  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
Scenes of Alsace come to the forefront when walking into our upper east side corner jewel. From the curved pewter bar decorated with suspended antique seltzer bottles, to our colorfully tiled floors; our cozy restaurant evokes the essence of Alsace at every turn.

    Service felt rushed. Food came before drinks, even though drink order placed and then came back a few minutes later to take food order. Within 3 minutes of placing food order plates were served. Drinks came a few minutes later.

    David gave outstanding service and when I said it was my husband's birthday, brought out the crepe dessert with a candle. Was a very enjoyable brunch, in the quieter back room.

    The food was delicious, but our server David M. made our experience perfect. His menu recommendations were spot on and he was super attentive even though he was clearly swamped.

    The food was great, service from Steve was amazing and it was a lovely experience. We were a party of 7 with 3 kids and everyone was happy! Thank you to Steve and the staff! For brunch we ate eggs, waffles, pancakes and burger- all delicious!

    Good French Alsatian bistro food, nice beer selection, friendly service. The setting isn't quite as wonderful as the restaurant's former site but it's still charming.
