Centrally located restaurant which has an authentic bistro feel. Good service. The food was very good, although not great. Seems to be a very popular place as several guests that had not made reservations was refused a table.

Had a business lunch and tried the "Entrecôte au beurre de pastis" recommended by one of the party. It was amazing. Rustic French atmosphere and relatively small so reservations are recommended. There are a few tables outside but these are on the sidewalk with no privacy. Would recommend and will return next time I'm visiting.

We had a business dinner with 11 guests. The place is typical French with good food and service. Generally worth the visit. My only advice is to wathch the cost of the drinks.

Thoroughly enjoyable meal, fantastic overall. A great wine list and recommendation along with a splendid main course and the lemon meringue was probably the best I have ever had. I would thoroughly recommend this restaurant, just be sure to reserve a table to avoid disappointment. Only downside but not the fault of the restaurant are the streets surrounding, my wife... More

I decided to bring my family here for lunch, luckily we asked our hotel to make reservation. The restaurant is very popular even during lunch.

Absolutely fantastic food and wine. Service was excellent. Great atmosphere. After our first visit we booked a table for another night. Advisable to book in advance as it is a very busy restaurant. Would definitely go again and work our way through the menu.

We had a wonderful meal and great service. Wine was great. The dessert was amazing - worth going back for every night!! Get there early - we had a table of 5 and got there right when they opened so we got a great table. There was a long line when we left.

Usually required to book 2-3 weeks in advance. Packed, a bit noisy but the food is fresh and tasty, in particular the meat
