Classy. A don't-miss place

Just went yesterday with an old friend, looking for a perfect spot to get reacquainted. Did not disappoint. Service was attentive without being annoying. Drinks, salad, frites were perfect. Yeah, this place is a bit pricey, but I love it.

Lousy service

The bartender tends arrogantly and slowly. The frites are good. The cheese plate is miserly. Not enough wait staff. Uncomfortable chairs. If you want to enjoy this place go for one drink and frites.

Tiny. Noisy. But V. Good.

The place is really tiny and when it's full it's very noisy especially of you sit at the bar because the cocktail shaker never stops and you're sitting within inches of it. The cocktails are unique and generally very good. The food is even better. The frites are a good standby, but try anything even if you don't think you'd like it. You'll be surprised.
