Many guests praise the delicious lamb dishes, duck confit, and flavorful appetizers like the French onion soup and escargots. The service is frequently described as professional, welcoming, and attentive, with numerous staff members noted for their ability to make special occasions feel truly personalized and celebratory.

We went here for a early dinner as we booked for AURA experience in Notre-Dame Basilica. It's quite pity we didn't get a chance to enjoy the jazz music.

We tried the Happening Gourmand Menu - 2-course menu featuring items for $49, like the snail, tuna tartare, steak & fries & cod risotto. Other than that, we also ordered onion soup & rack of lamp from the menu separately.

I would say the food is like average level, nothing impressed me. The food was served promptly, I kinda doubted if they were freshly cooked or not. I ordered medium for the steak & lamp. I think they were served as medium well.

Great vibe in the upstairs room. Food was good, but the music playing live in the background was what made this a 5.

Staff was not overly nice but we still had a great time.

Great spot with a festive atmosphere & live jazz. Service was friendly & attentive. Rad, our waiter, was excellent. Prices are reasonable & the wine list is diverse. The only downside was that the band, although very talented, was too loud, making it hard to have a conversation at the table.
