    Usually one of our favorite spots. Waiter was very inattentive. Had to track down someone else 3 separate times to ask for more water. Kitchen best slow. Food and appetizers took a very long time to come out. Very disappointing, usually service is top notch. Did notice the owner was not there, maybe that is why.

    This was a special event put on by Brassier Provence (dinner at the farm of one of their vegetable suppliers). Excellent evening. Excellent food. Great event. Brassiere Provence’s events like this (wine dinners at the restaurant/paint classes) are great fun. Thanks BP team.

    We went for a friends birthday and everything was perfect. The staff were very friendly and helpful but, professional. Would highly recommend for special occasions or just a wonderful meal. It is one of the few places that we could get escargot.
