Exceeded my expectations. Noisy and chaotic environment, a bit like bring on the set of Hell's Kitchen. Restaurant is open, airy and beautifully sunlit. Service was about whet you'd expect from stressed out apprentices. My bavette looked like it was run over by an Abrams tank; they must have used some kind of mechanical tenderizer on it. The result was tender but ugly. Seafood pasta was fine, the shrimps and scallops not that overcooked. Dishes are quite pricy for what you get. I tried two desserts that were cooked in-house: the praline ice cream and the crème caramel. Both were excellent. Overall a good novelty experience but I'm not sure ill be in a hurry to return.

Dependable BYOW. The food is decent, the decor is simple and chic and the service is usually really good.

Its ok. Was dissapointed when suggested "Baby Back Ribs" turned out to be "Boeuf Braisé" and VERY fatty. I don't usually mind fatty meats, but this was too much.

Other than that time, most other experiences here were positive. You get your money's worth.

It was ok. Nothing special except the décor...although the dessert cart had a tasty yield.
