Il faut absolument commencer par les cocktails qui sont extrêmement bien réalisés.
Puis la cuisine qui est originale & absolument délicieuse.
On sent une recherche dans les saveurs & il ne faut pas hésiter à prendre plusieurs plats( généreux) pour les partager ce qui est la philosophie du lieu.
L'ambiance est merveilleuse & super conviviale avec une très bonne playlist.
Un immense merci à Mathilde,notre serveuse, qui a été parfaite : drôle, attentionnée & professionnelle, avec un dosage impeccable.

INCREDIBLE dining experience. What does good portions were perfection, plated beautifully, & the flavor profiles were just right. Nothing to overpowering. The sauces. Weren't too salty or strong or intense while still providing excellent support for the dishes. We had the tasting menu for Two & I highly recommend recommended. I have multiple allergies & they were incredibly accommodating making sure to provide suitable options. Danielle was our server & she knocked it out of the park.
