The waiters are very nice and the service is usually quick. The restaurant has an indoor and outdoor seating. in the summer, when not too hot, it is a pleasure to sit outside. around there is a large grassy area, so kids can run and play around. The French breakfast is delicious and I highly recommend it. The dishes size are pretty decent with big portions. The salads are quite large coming like a pyramid, I like it ;) Their salad nicoise served with a warm, crisp ciabbata roll, had a generous amount of seared tuna. They also have amazing potatoes with a delicious dressing. The desserts and the dishes are really good. There is a parking right outside the restaurant which is...

We went in on Friday morning for a late breakfast (or brunch, I guess). It was spur of the moment, but they didn't have trouble giving us a reservation for an hour from the moment we called.

As for the service, it was not welcoming. The staff behaved as if they were sick of the job and forced to be there. Altogether, it was a disappointing, expensive experience. I probably won't...
