Their omelette is not a French omelette so don’t expect that

Nice French restaurant but $7 for a Ricard is a rip off .. And they only accept amex and cash..the food is alright

This place is very French. Sit outside with some wine and cheese.

Expensive & kinda smells like toilet, but in that way, very authentically French.

Yummy everything and live music on weekends. A festive and fun brunching experience.

They do not have half-price wine night on Mondays. The wine, however, is reasonably priced.

Onion soup gratinée, Les moules provençales with frites, Late night giant Bar Tabac Burger...should I stop?
suzanne stouteOctober 2, 2011
Avoid this place! The bread came to the table cold and our waitress said the staff were to busy to heat it up! Then it took more than 45 minutes for a plate of mussels to arrive and they were bland!

you wouldn't expect it since it's a French restaurant but the burger is one of the best in the city

nice little French bar
Gianna NebbiaMay 30, 2019
Super flavorful meals
Margot EMay 22, 2013
The service was a bit of a turn off. I probably won't be back because the wait staff was so rude. Also, they only accept cash and American Express.
Keith RobinsonMay 25, 2014
Salmon burger was really good.
AnngelicaSeptember 4, 2010
The service was good. The ratatouille was terrible, and our appetizers were oily. If you're in need of a French food fix, Jolie (on Atlantic Ave.) is a wonderful alternative.

Brunch has live band!

Open late and really great burgers

L'ambiance la decoration the mood
Kate FurstApril 12, 2011
Meh. Dinner wasn't that exciting. French fries are tasty and pan seared fish special was good. Outdoor seating was lovely. Moules were flavorless
