   Wonderful choice of French classical and modern cuisine from small entrée's, starters, mains and deserts. Equally impressive was the wine list offering something for every palate. Also, plenty for the gluten intolerant without having to compromise. On a chilly Winter night, this was the place to be. Charming decor, lovely gas fire and attentive staff. No wonder the tables were filled. We will definitely be coming back.

   Gem of a restaurant, hidden behind narrow unimpressive entrance doors but which opens into lovely bar and large living room/dining area with roaring fire. Very tasty traditional french dishes as you would expect - had the bourguinon with beef cheek - needed the extra portion of mashy to maximise the sauces. For a treat I would recommend the amazing apple pastry dessert served with a subtle amount of Calvaodos and vanilla ice cream - currently on the specials menu but hopefully will be added to the standard dishes. Not cheap but good value.

   Everything about this restaurant was 5 star. The service, the atmosphere, and most importantly the food. We loved our night and would highly recommend this as being one of the best French restaurants in Melbourne.

    Fantastic place! We went there on Friday? it was very quiet. But I assume it gets very busy in the evening. Food was excellent, service - great, ambiance - very good! 10 out of 10, highly recommended!

    A very special lunch was held for 2 friends birthdays with 3 others joining the group. All commented on the atmosphere, service and quality of food and agreed to return with others. A special treat was dessert with a candle for each of the birthday ladies.

    Unfortunately while the food was sensational the night was let down by lack of service. We understand that at the moment it is hard to get good staff, when you are paying top prices you expect to get reasonably attentive staff - having forgotten to bring some of the food we ordered and having to get the attention of the staff whenever we wanted something is not what you expect when fine dining. Even having to ask for the bill twice was a little annoying. Couldn’t fault the food with our party having lived in Paris and travelled the world, the meal was up there with the best we have had. We would go back just for the food, however if the service was improved then we would certainly make this our “go to” restaurant whenever we have visitors whom we want to impress.

    Main courses (Canard a l'orange and Lamb Shanks) were delicious. Tried the French Champagne and Syrah and they were both excellent. Crepe Suzettes to share were a perfect way to finish the meal - scrumptious!

    Lovely place, good food. We were sorted at the entry of the restaurant which wasn’t pleasant as people were coming and going behind us all evening. The restaurant was full and the staff was very busy but still served us well. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. The food was good but not extraordinary. Prices are very reasonable. We will return and do recommend the place.

    Four of us had a delicious French meal. We thoroughly enjoyed our food and the atmosphere. The service was a little slow clearly due only to a shortage of staff..but the waiter was charming and doing her very best. We shared an entree ...it was plenty for four people. We also shared desserts and that was a good idea as the servings were generous.
