The food & cocktails were great, but the waiter's constant presence didn't allow us to enjoy our conversation.

Beautiful & elegant place, perfect for a date night. The food was good & nicely presented, & the overall vibe is upscale & enjoyable.

Portions are quite small & prices (food & drinks) feel a bit high, so it's more about the experience than a full meal. Overall, a great spot for a fancy night out!

La bouffe est délicieuse, menu végétarien assez large, c'est pour cette raison que j'y suis allée & je suis sincèrement impressionnée. Idem pour le service, Rachel est on top of her game🖤

The food was sooo good & very tasty the rice was so full of flavor every bite was so pleasant!
The only down part is how we ordered chicken brochette'S' plural as written in the menu & only received the equivalent of 1 stick which is misleading...
other than that, everything was very delicious the chicken was nicely charred, the atmosphere was beautiful with dim lighting. & I really appreciate how the music was not loud & the place felt very sophisticated.
I will definitely come back thank you!
