SUMMARY: Food was ok; service was iffy. Not a place I'm running back to.
FULL STORY: Came here for lunch with a friend recently. The place is small -- maybe 12 or so tables. I guess the atmosphere fits with the neighborhood cafe idea... it's definitely an old building with tight seating, so I would come in expecting that.
It didn't seem busy the day we went -- there were 4 other occupied tables. Our orders were simple -- a salad and a crepe... but it took over 20 minutes for drinks and almost 45 minutes for any food, without an update. That was surprising given the staff-to-customer ratio that afternoon.
I thought the food was alright... nothing bad, but nothing outstanding. I was at least expecting some great bread, but it seemed pretty average. The coffee was good (Rising Star apparently)!
What detracted most from the experience was the negative attitude from staff members... it came off kind of passive-aggressive for no clear reason, which hasn't been typical of my experience at other local restaurants around Cleveland. That was a bummer.
If you're ever around DC and love French food, check out Bistrot du Coin! That place is amazing and very authentic!
