    The food here was absolutely amazing. The burger was incredibly tasty, and the steak and eggs were super good—cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The French toast was delicious as well, easily one of the highlights. The place itself is small, but it feels very cozy and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Definitely a spot worth coming back to.

    Food was definitely the highlight of our visit. The onion soup and escargot were both excellent, and the steak frites was solid. The beef bourguignon had great flavor, but it could have been served a bit hotter, as it seemed to cool down quickly. Service was good overall. Our main server was pleasant, but the assistant waiter really stood out. He was friendly, attentive, and consistently on top of everything throughout the meal. The space itself is cute and cozy, with a warm, inviting atmosphere that made the experience even more enjoyable. We were a group of three and shared two bottles of wine. The French Pinot Noir and the Côtes du Rhône were both very good and reasonably priced. All in all, a very enjoyable evening and a place I would absolutely return to.
