We've only been here for the lunch special, but it definitely left an impression. The food has that classic French style - simple, clean flavors that the chef brings together really nicely....

Outstanding in every way. Chef-Owned and family operated, which is evident in the attention to detail and the warm, friendly atmosphere. A somewhat limited menu, though the choices are well...

Went back for their Ethiopian food. As always, absolutely delicious food. PS - you can ask for more injera and they usually give it to you for no extra charge!
