Many of the french restaurants in Japan is good, but has a Japanese style to it but this restaurant is very authentic french and stays true to it's style. Steak and fries was so perfect with perfectly seasoned and cooked meat with nice fries, lamb is another standout dish, perfectly cooked and cooked in a style where you have no place to hide unless you are perfectly cooked and it was 10 out of 10 for us.

It is only a small place, but that only adds to the cosiness and the French rustic feel. I would highly recommend this restaurant as it ticked all the...
