I made a reservation for a big group for my birthday & everything was perfect! I had the vegan tasting menu & it was absolutely wonderful. My friends had cocktails & they enjoyed them all. The service was impeccable, they even cut the cake that one of my friend brought! 10/10

Food was very good (4-5 star), but expensive for the amount. Plates would have made for a less messy table.

I wish the review option let me put a 4.5 - this is a fabulous restaurant with lovely food that feels quite authentic - the decor is lovely & it is clean - they have some very interesting juices & cocktails - & the sharing platter has served us well on both recent visits. Very nice service.
Reservations are highly recommended, & the seating is comfortable.

Excellent repas, savoureux, service impeccable. Seul bémol, malgré la réservation plusieurs jours d'avance on nous a placé sur le bord de l'escalier menant aux toilettes. Isolés! L'autre choix était au sous-sol ...seules.
