Amazing place. You'll literally feel at home, as it seems like this used to be someone's house. Food is nice, service is pretty good. It's a pretty chill place, not a lot of noise. They seem to have live piano but I couldn't see it tho.

Old and traditional french restaurant, have kept the quality and flavor of the cuisine for years. Wine cellar is ample and very affordable. Try the Beouf Bourginone or the duck.
