I can't speak highly enough about the food. The quality of each dish was truly exceptional. We followed recommendations and tried both the dish of the day, lamb, and their regular offering, callette. Both were truly outstanding. We also indulged in the charcuterie board, salmon tartare, and foie gras. While all were delicious, the foie gras and the terrines on the charcuterie board were particularly outstanding. For those seeking authentic cuisine from this region, this restaurant is an...
