Facing into the restaurant makes you feel like you're in France. Facing out reminds you that you're sitting on the ass end of Wellington Street.
Pricey menu with good quality food. If you're not feeling adventurous then try the set menu. $35 gets you a selection of their best dishes. I highly suggest going for the duck confit rather than the steak. Amazing dish.
Staff is friendly and the atmosphere is great. Again, just don't look out onto Wellington street.
