"Great ambiance and service. The food is mediocre. Breakfast and brunch is much better than dinner. The escargots are good, but hard to screw that up. Beet salad was nice, with an appropriately smelly bleu cheese and poached apples. The onion soup is good, but not as good as everyone raves. I felt the soup itself was so overpowered by the large amount of cheese they put in it. I much prefer an onion soup to have a good amount of caramelized onion, but this certainly lacked that, felt almost like a cheese stew. If that's your thing, go for it. The steak a poivre was highly disappointing. It was cooked to medium rare, perfectly. Unfortunately they're clearly using inferior meat and not preparing it well. It was incredibly tough and chewy. Not a hint of marbling in it, so despite being medium rare, it also felt incredibly dry. Served with fries which were standard, but nothing to write home about. The spinach with it was overly salty. I was excited about dessert. But let down again. The caramelized banana ricotta tart had bruleed banana and delicious banana ice cream. The tart itself was rather dry even with that. The apple tarte tatin was good, but again, the base was hard and dry. Difficult to even cut (we were only provided a spoon, which should normally be fine). The wine (house and by the glass) was all mediocre. The service was great."
