| - Getting right to it; here are a few tips you might find helpful:
-Make reservations very early in advance (we had to book 1.5 months in advance for a table on a Friday night).
-Don't come on a record hot summer day (their ac sucks).
-Order the Oysters Rockefeller as an appetizer and Clafoutis for dessert.
-Get the Gimlet to drink.
-Expect to spend $$$ but you might find it worth it!
This restaurant is super cute in terms of atmosphere and they definitely know how to prepare food the right way. My table ordered the French Onion Soup, Oysters Rockefeller, Scallops, Mussels, Macaroni Au Gratin, NY Strip (we sampled two sauces: bordelaise and house sauce), Beignets, and Clafoutis, in which we split everything. I highly recommend getting items from the Petit Plats and splitting them.
While everything was good, my favorites were definitely the Oysters Rockefeller and Clafoutis. The steak was good, but probably not worth $42. If you do go that route, the bordelaise sauce is the way to go. Overall, though, good food, good drinks. Definitely worth trying!
