What a pleasant surprise!! We stumbled upon Nicole walking around town, & stayed for hours because the food, drinks, & service was so amazing. Olivier made our night exceptional, & we left with full bellies & sore abs from laughing so much with Olivier. Wholeheartedly recommend. -(quadruple from NJ)

We were really excited to try this place, based on the reviews. Unfortunately, it was pretty disappointing: super bland mussel broth; too much vinegar in both the onion soup & tartare; soggy fries. We ate less than half of the mussels & asked the server why it was so tasteless, he said it was Lobster broth & took it away with no follow through.
