Super repas malheureusement un peu bousculé par la réalisation d'un film dans la rue d'à-coté. Cuisine inventive dans l'air du temps & particulièrement savoureuse.

Notre serveuse était super sympathique. Nous avons pu manger sur la terrasse extérieure tel que demandé. Trois d'entre nous avons choisi le Général Tao & les deux autres Poulet au beurre & deux Petits Plats. Tout était excellent. Seul bémol, trois abeilles nous ont un peu dérangés mais seulement pendant le repas. Aussitôt les plats retirés, elles s'envolèrent. Si vous êtes allergiques, il est préférable de manger à l'intérieur.

Great food service was good too, but we did have to ask more then once if we could speeded up service because we had a show at 8 pm. We walked in at 5:53 left at 7:30 . Our last main course on a serving of 5 courses was served at exactly 7:09. Dessert was swallowed in record time, no time for tea or coffee. I'm also a food safety inspector & sadly your chef missed that the kettle use to warm up your soup was not working!!! This should be addressed has it could be quite costly. The soup was served to us cold obviously the kitchen did not no this it was not smoking hot. We got a replacement. Little issues but all in all a four star anyways.
