"Zero stars. we start from the moment we went to the restaurant, the atmosphere was extremely unpleasant. the place was strangely calm and it seemed like nobody was happy. so many couples didn't talk to each other or even smiled. our server was very sweet. she was very attentive and friendly. probably the only good one at our dinner in this night. we ordered their special cocktails, the bourbon was great, but the other tasted like a cheap drink I had in college. our French woof soup was extremely salty, almost ruining the taste. my head rib was the worst steak I've ever had. I ordered it medium and it came with only one hauch of pink. there was no taste to him at all and the whole thing was hard to chew. I ate what I could because I had starved. I can't believe they'd serve. the cook must know that this was not a quality piece of meat. the NY strip of my man was decent. for the luck he told me a few bits about it. the worst part. we wanted to have riesling with our dinner. the server opened everything imaginative and so, just to take one swallow and realize that this was nothing like the riesling normally enjoy. it was dry and sour. it wasn't very sweet, as if we were expecting a giant. we googled the cost of this bottle and realized that it could be bought for $7.97! the restaurant has charged us $38 for it! unnecessary to say we have not our meal, our cocktails or the complete bottle wein, which we were forced to buy because only a glass was no option. we decided that, since everything we have ordered was a disappointment, we will pass on what is in the ordinary part of our favorite to eat. one and done for us."

"We went to the Bastille Day Prix Fixe dinner and were really disappointed. We do like this restaurant, and its usually very good. This time, except for the service which was excellent, the food was a serious disappointment. We wondered if some of it was left over from the previous night, as this was the second day of a two day offer.Frog's legs were done in a weird tomato/paprika sauce rather than traditional lemon/garlic/butter. In fairness the menu did describe the sauce accurately, but it was tasteless and a bit off-putting.Fish dishes are usually excellent here, but not this time. Flounder in brown butter sauce was the item listed on the menu. When I ordered it, the server informed me that they ran out of flounder (we were the first seated that night, so that was strange) and that it would be sea bass. I was disappointed, but ok since they do fish dishes well. Sadly, my sea bass was way overcooked and very dry, with minimal traces of sauce.Dessert was the most disappointing. Eclairs were on the menu, supposedly fresh out of the oven and just now piped. What came to the table was two small madeleines, with one end of each dipped in chocolate, all cold from the refrigerator, and the madeleines were way overdone and dry. The dish was so different from what the server described that I asked if they were leftover, as they'd obviously been refrigerated, and were not, in fact, eclairs. The server was mystified, said she'd just seen them being piped, and brought another serving which was exactly the same, cold madeleines dipped in chocolate. When asked why they were cold, she said she hadn't realized they were put in the refrigerator because they didn't have counter space. Very strange--wrong item (not an eclair) and served like a leftover.We also had the plum clafouti. Its texture was gummy as if microwaved when cooked, although it was cold in temperature. Or it was left in the refrigerator overnight.Bad meal! Price way high as well for what it was."
