Service & atmosphere was excellent. Salads were not good. Main dishes were ok.

We got the veal ravioli, scallops, & a dozen oysters. The scallops & ravioli needed the slightest touch more of salt, it felt missing. The meal did not'wow' me, it was expensive ($60 per person) & nothing filled us up. The sauces made the food yummy. I did not like the Apple shreds on the scallops meal. The scallop sauces were phenomenal.

La brasserie est un endroit où je vais régulièrement & je suis toujours contente d'y retourner. Mais hier, les plats manquaient de sauce! Les raviolis au veau était un peu secs, le pudding chômeur était
Sec aussi & avait un arrière goût de métal, peut être à cause du plat en fonte. Un peu déçue mais j'y retrouverai quand même…
