Lovely neighborhood French bistro. The menu hits all of the right notes, the wine list is snappy and considered, and the staff understand their customer base. Warrants repeat visits.

I came here as a group of 7 people for my 18th birthday. The food was incredible, the service was fast, and they even put a candle on my panna cotta and sang me happy birthday! The views were incredible as we had an early dinner booking to watch the sunset. The drinks were amazing too (I had the lychee lemonade and it was divine!). I couldn't recommend enough.
