    The menu is small but it changes constantly. Mediterranean fare from Spain to the south of France is delicious, if you don't mind spending a bit of cash (entrees range from $21-$27) Read more

    Do the Deviled eggs and California Pinot Noir. Don't touch the steak tartare. It's like store bought hamburger meat dumped into a ramekin.

    'Lost in translation' has many ingredients that might seem weird on a menu but taste great when they are all together in your glass!

    Bread comes with a pretty good bean dip. Kale salad and octopus are pretty good.

    The steak tartars is an obscene amount of food. The new sea bass dish is incredible. Very fresh

    The steak-frites and oysters are a must try.

    ask for the chocolate cake for dessert, even though it'll be 30 minutes...

    Dinner: Start off with some Oysters and/or some Deviled Eggs, then onto Steak Frites for a solid meal!

    Go to CK, grab the lobster deviled eggs and something wacky by the bottle - the staff will not steer your wrong!
