Everything we ate - from appetizers to main course to dessets - were perfectly prepared and presented. House red wine was delicious. The owner Patrice was witty and a delightful host. Service was very efficient... more
French cuisine in a brasserie setting. Combining nouveau with traditional, try tuna loin and wasabi beurre blanc, rack of lamb with maple mustard sauce. Popular with locals. Entrees: $$$$
