This place is adorable and the service was excellent. My husband and I had different opinions of the food based on what we ordered. I had the classic chicken dish with wine sauce and it was delicious- they were even able to make this dairy free for me which is so unique for a French restaurant. However my husband has the shrimp risotto and for 50 dollar dish it was scant and he was still hungry at the end. There was like, 2 Shrimp and the risotto was unfulfilling with barely any sauce or rice. I was disappointed for him.

What a gem. Make reservations in advance via the phone. Small, boutique and very intimate atmosphere. Seeing the chef check in and share drinks with customers was amazing. Our servers were extremely knowledgeable and very helpful explaining options and “how” dishes were made. The wine list was unique and made a great pairing. Great location as well.

Wonderful small restaurant experience. Wait staff was attentive and welcoming. Food and dessert were amazing. We got the duck and lamb, and the chocolate walnut bar and an apple dessert, all heavenly and clearly hand-prepared with expert care. Prepare for a parking challenge anywhere on the island but it is worth it for this dining gem!

This tiny place is one of the best restaurants in Orange County. I’m going back to try each item on the menu. The food is fresh and delicious, i wish i was there right now. The chef & his son are great too!

We had a great meal there tonight. Wonderful summer salad, good raclette and the duck was excellent.I also tried the risotto with shrimp which I’d order and a dessert special which was light and very flavorful. Portion sizes are small enough for multiple courses which is nice as you get to try more things.

I took my wife here for her birthday on a week night. The atmosphere of the restaurant is very nice – definitely a good vibe for a date night. We made a reservation and were taken to our table without waiting.

This is definitely a “one and done” place. It’s a very charming little restaurant with a polite but disconnected staff whose attitude comes across more condescending than inviting. Our party had the Shrimp Risotto, Coq au Vin, and one of the lamb dishes. All plates were bland, flavorless, and uninspired. The saving grace was that the portions are skimpy enough so as not to have to put up with too much of the mediocrity of the food. There are FAR better options in the area.

Hidden gem restaurant with an amazing chef. Have to go back and take more photos to share… as the presentation and taste of food there were too overwhelming to take all the photos. And wine selection is good too 🙂

This meal was amazing! I would give it more than 5 stars if I could. The Seabass was cooked just right and served over couscous and summer vegetables. We ordered a bottle of sparkling water and a half bottle of white wine and they brought out a basket of bread with butter. The restaurant is very small (about 10 tables) but the noise level was very low and it was easy to have a conversation. The food is not cheap but the quality is great.
