A perfect little French restaurant in Brooklyn. After visiting it the night before I returned for the second time and enjoyed it equally. If you enjoy French food, this place is highly and if you're greeted by Amadeus the owner and are served by Charlie, your experience will be complete.

Delightful French restaurant in Brooklyn. Excellent food. We shared the charcuterie platter and the the steak tartare. Both excellent. The wine list is extensive and varied. The service was outstanding. We sat at the bar and we're looked after by Charlie, who is top notch. The owner, Amadeus, greeted us and was very nice. Overall a delightful restaurant. Since tonight is my last night here I am thinking of going back again tonight! 🇨🇦

We went there for my son's bday because he is incredibly conscious about what he eats. All of their meats and produce are from local farms and they list them. The food was superb also! Highly recommend the Steak Frites, the Moules and the amazing Sorbet.

The Duck Confit hash was fantastic! The ambience is a peaceful mix of Paris, Brooklyn and, somehow to me, Tokyo.
