Stellar French food and even better atmosphere. You’ll feel like you’ve walked into a small bistro in Paris. Take your time and enjoy everything on offer. Best crème brûlée I’ve ever had.

Don't be fooled by the neighborhood , this restaurant is killer. Be nice to Judy behind the bar or suffer the consequences! Duck confit salad is perfect to start.
