"Chef Fred prepared an amazing rack of lamb for us; it was delicious, juicy, and incredibly tender. We savored every bite and even licked the bones clean. The French onion soup was authentic and delightful, with perfectly crunchy embedded bread. It was truly the best. The escargot was also outstanding, bursting with flavor, and the cremolette was excellent as well. We’ve found our favorite spot in the charming town of Exeter. We enjoyed a bottle of Beaudouex wine, and our server, Chris, was attentive and gracious. It was an unforgettable experience!"

yesterday we went to this good restaurant for the first time. but it's not like that. it's not a doubt, not the last time. we have a wonderful evening with the excellent service, with the excellent straight and fine drinks and with the decent fee. we'll be back soon.

Was very hopeful based on Yelp reviews. Talk about disappointment. Prices do NOT reflect the quality of the food. The service was the only redeeming factor to this place. Save your time and go elsewhere. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $30–50 Food: 1 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3 View menu

Great Friendly Service For Brunch. We were a party of 15 and our food was set down hot and delicious. Our waiter was Very Friendly, and very Hospitable even though a few of us move seats and not in the seat they ordered from. I can not wait to stop by for dinner some day and hope I get the same server the did an amazing job with the 15 of us. Service: Dine in
