Pot au Feu

Lovely dinner of duck breast and wild mushroom crepes. Cozy and romantic atmosphere. The host/owner visited each table…very enjoyable time.

The food was mediocre at best. The staff were nice, the service was slow. Check Yelp. For the person who said they understood why Julia Childs loved this restaurant so much, it's because her and the owner were good drinking buddies. Sat down and waited 40 minutes before we were waited on and we had to reach out to let the staff know we had not been waited on. Approximately 15 mins later the table was served the bread and butter. Bread was heated up and butter was spreadable. I tried the escargot, steak frites cooked medium rare, and the duck. The escargot was nothing special, tasted like garlic bread. The steak was very small and disappointing, approximately 1inch by 3inches, and some what tough. The fries were bland, no salt or flavor. And when trying to use the salt shaker, it was rock solid due to the moisture of a basement setting. The steak frites being priced at $23 I would say it's priced fairly at a "nice" restaurant, but the steak was not something you would expect from a nice

Delicious and authentic French fare. The restaurant has lots of old wood and brick very reminiscent of a French restaurant in the country side. We started with Fois Gras. Very generous portion and delicious start to a hearty meal. Wine list was competent. Crepe suzette for dessert was perfect. I had the lamb shank. Menu is in French with English subtitles. The shrimp and scallop entree was filled with plump seafood and covered with cheese - very hearty. Steak Frites was good along with the tenderloin. Fun experience.
