Came here for a birthday dinner for my fiancée and we were not disappointed. Great cocktail menu and the six different courses we had (chicken liver pate, crispy lamb shoulder, roast pigeon, side of beef, chocolate fondant and butterscotch pot du creme) were all terrific. Especially the beef. There is also an excellent wine menu to pick from. Very efficient and friendly service. Also considering the location and the style of cuisine, the prices are very reasonable. We will definitely be back
