Profile

This venue is closed.

A good place to go when you want a quiet, charming room and hearty French food, this cozy bistro—which features a fireplace and an enclosed garden—has become a city staple for dates, Valentine’s Day dinners and family occasions. Attentive, friendly service accompanies modern but untrendy dishes such as marinated free-range chicken with julienned vegetables or roast duck.

Recommended Dishes

Herb Goat Cheese Tart, $7.95; Roast Free-Range Chicken and Mashed Potatoes, $16.95; Lamb Steak, $22.75
