"We had a nice dinner with friends at this cozy and well established UES French restaurant. We started our meal with some excellent but expensive red wine from their large wine list; a salad which was good but not quite outstanding. As a main course I had the halibut which was fresh, delicious, and presented on a bed of assorted colored legumes. On the negative side, the entree was of very modest size and really needed some rice or potatoes to fill a lonely looking plate. My companions did enjoy their meat and chicken entrees. The chicken while minimally adequate in size was served with some delicious mashed potatoes . We asked several times for more bread to serve our table of four after quickly finishing a small half loaf of four slices but it never arrived. On a prior visit I had the mussels and fries which were quite good. On this visit we skipped dessert there since we planned to have said later in the evening. For this dining experience I would rate it pleasurable but quite honestly I don't like leaving a restaurant still feeling hungry; especially a pricey one at that, and for that reason alone reluctantly deduct a star from food that is of very good quality."
