    Met up with our longtime friends and as usual we had a wonderful experience. From the moment we arrived and brought to our table we felt transported to Paris. Our waiters provided attentive service and were readily available. We enjoyed a wonderful meal from drinks to our meals everything was perfect and delicious. We were the last table out and no one pressed us to leave. Thank you to your entire team for another wonderful experience for my party of 5. Cheers!

    Very traditional French in a beautiful dining room. Red velvet chairs and red leather booth seating with a white marble bar as the centerpiece. Food was traditional French and prepared magnificently.
