"This is a great French restaurant. They have set menus and we chose the one with wine pairing. Honestly, look at the pictures. It's more food than expected and the wines were lovely. The staff is very friendly, the food is absolutely delicious and well presented and I can't complain about the portions. It's close to fine dining but slightly more relaxed. If you are up for a nice dinner then definitely book a table here."

"My 3rd time here, down to 4 star compared to totally 5 star last 2 times for food quality reason: - the lamp (which I didn’t bother take photo) was completely failure for such a good restaurant. It’s salty which I can still live with, but the presentation is very bad with pulled lamp meat style just putting together without any design; as the meat is salty, you need more mashed potato to go with. Maybe to make it “fancy”, they put really just a spoon of mashed potato, bad balance. - the souffle dessert is not taste at all Other than that the fois gras and the fish entrees were so good; my fish plat was really amazing. The $15 2 glass of wine paring was also very vey good. This was my first time didn’t select menu dégustation but selected menu Vauban, not sure if that was the reason of the lower quality. I will still come here next time."
