Good restaurant with fast service, delicious food and nice atmosphere. We were there at about 5 pm June 13 2023 and chose a three-course meal that started with a delicious carpaccio; the portion was so big that I’ll be full but it was airy and well balanced in taste and color I can say without revealing too much. The main course, veal was tender and tasted absolutely amazing, it was served with two sauces, although it was less of a surprise because from the starter we understood that this place delivers. The dessert was the next surprise, a crème brulee is usually nothing special, but the size and a scoop of sorbet and mango cream put a new touch on the dessert. I don't think we were just lucky, the ingredients were consistently of the highest quality as well as the arrangement, seasoning and taste. With that quality, it surprises me if the price does not increase or if the restaurant perhaps moves more centrally. If you are in the hooks and are hungry do not hesitate, you will not regret it.

nice and cozy place. one of the staffs came and asked if she could take the empty plate already and if the food is good. my husband said yes, compliments to the chef. he went further saying the duck confit would be among the top 20 unforgettable dish for him. to this statement, before he could even order dessert, the lady turned her back already 🙈 this restaurant could be one of those places where you could either have good food or good service BUT not both 😖 good food indeed!

Disappointing service! When leaving we were told we would have to pay the difference between the value of the gift card at the time of issue and the current prices. This was a time limited brunch gift card with no stated value. We booked via email with an image of the gift card to ensure there were no issues. The staff couldn't figure out how to process the gift certificate & we waited while they figured it on the phone with their boss. We were told that the gift certificate was old and we would have to pay the difference as they have since increased their prices. We explained that there was no value on the gift certificate and that we had included an image with the email when booking, and it was not mentioned then that any difference would have to be paid. The staff insisted there was nothing they could do and that they were surprised this wasn't explained during the booking. Misleading and disappointing experience.

Walked in there one night just before Christmas 2020, had already booked a table. Upon arriving it was obvious that no Covid 19 safety was practiced. The place was very busy, no one wore a mask and people we crammed together drinking beer and behaving accordingly. Proximity rules completely ignored. Turned around at the door and left. I wonder how many infections can be traced to this place?

Very nice place with cozy atmosphere. Good food. Please note that the portions of food are quite big for one person. It might be more convenient to share a dish between two people. Personally, I would happily recommend the fish and mushroom cream soup. Aperol Spritz and Dark Guinness are excellent, but the Tom Collins could be a bit stronger

This is a modern, cozy neighborhood restaurant with a nice menu selection with varied choices for all tastes! I really liked the duck salad that was fresh & well prepared and came with the dressing on the side, as I had requested. My brother & sister-in-law were also really happy with their 🍔s! The service was prompt and really friendly!
