Parking: We walked from or office, but noticed there is a parking lot right next door. Service: We had a party of 4 and made reservations, there was no wait. Our server was ok, food and drink service were great. Ambience/Crowd: it's a mixed crowd mainly ppl after work but it def had a date night vibe Food/drink: 7/10 I had the Mayan medicine it was delicious... we had the goat cheese balls got starter and it was delicious and for dinner I had hearth burger with patatas bravas my teammates had the same with brassica which is just broccolini. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Favorite thing: The patatas bravas Least favorite thing: I can't think of anything Will I be back? Yes!

We asked for the wrong kind of sausage (a European sausage) and the owner or manager started shouting at us. Couldn't tell us simply "no" - I think it was some kind of European ethnic tension I stepped into. Nothing we deserved. They are in the neighborhood, but they are not neighbors. Not no more.

The potatoes were good, but the veggies were extremely bland, and the schnitzel lacked flavor & was extremely dry. The menu says it comes with a lemon butter sauce, but there was no sauce on mine & kind of made it hard to want to eat.

Great "rainy day" vibes, but the food was a game of two halves…read more If you're looking for a cozy, intimate spot to hide from the rain, the atmosphere here is 10/10. It's a small, "tucked away" bistro with low lights and chalkboard menus that give it a really warm, authentic feel. The service was also impressively fast. The Good: The soup! We ordered the Broccoli Cheddar and the Mushroom Soup. Both were fantastic, but the Mushroom Soup was the star--deep, rich umami flavor that hit the spot perfectly. The Bad: The main courses really fell short. Fettuccine Bernadette: Very creamy, but seemingly no salt was used at all. It was quite a disappointment. Spicy Chicken Panini: Pretty bland. It lacked seasoning and the peppers felt under-grilled. The Verdict: While the server was great and the soup was memorable, the rest of the meal didn't justify the struggle to find parking. We've flagged this as a place we likely won't return to, unless we're just stopping in for a quick bowl of soup.

I discovered this hidden gem about 3 months ago and now I have to say I eat here often. I've had the fish tacos... a flavor filled explosion of mind blowing artistry. Every bite is going to make your tastebuds sing! I've had the black bean soup... delectable! My son loves the ham club on croissant. I have eaten the spicy chicken panini... a trip of sensational taste that will take you to flavor town! I've had the gyro a favorite of mine! I've had the fish sandwich, I've eaten the potato soup, I've had the pasta... there just has not been a blah dish yet! And let's not forget their perfect golden fries.... I'm telling you this place is OHHHH MY GODDIE TO GOSH DARN HOTTIE! They also serve wine and beer. Oh and I return often for their Carmel latte. There are outside tables or inside seating. The decor is soft and homey... inviting and relaxing, Well kept and just nice. Look the food is exceptional, the environment is sweet, but to top it all off the people are wonderful! You are not just a customer here... you are family! They are thoughtful, kind, generous, and just flat out a delightful change of service in a world that seems to have lost knowing what service is. I have always felt like I dining with friends here. Lunch is almost always packed... they are open for dinner as well on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, but are completely closed on Sunday... I wish they would have a brunch on Sunday! I'd come here after church every week if they did. I love this location! It is an oasis of greatness in a dessert of mediocrity... you need to try it out! I'm telling you make a plan to experience this wonderful spot... it is well worth your time!

Yum Yum Yum! I mean what more can I say?! I was very impressed with my experience here. From…read morethe food to the service, everything was amazing. The bartenders were very attentive; even with the busyness of the bar because of happy hour. I didn't order any food items from the HH menu but I did order a cocktail which was the limoncello spritz. It was good. A little tart for my palette. I tend to venture more on the sweet side but decided to order the spritz since it's springtime. The star of my visit was the Caesar salad which they call the grilled gems. There's 3 whole wedges of lettuce, grilled and drizzled with Caesar dressing and a hemp of Parmesan cheese. And they did not skimp on the cheese. And honestly that's how you're a Caesar salad is supposed to be. I would've LOVED to have croutons or maybe almonds just for the crunch but it was still good. I'd definitely come back just for that. I didn't order a full on entree but I did get dessert. The Crème Fraiche gelato to be exact. The olive oil drizzle sold me. While I don't think this is gelato, it was still good. To me, the texture gave regular vanilla ice cream. The olive oil gelato at Iberian pig is still number one in my book. I definitely want to try their garden menu which is exclusive to the patio area and the bread pudding. I hear it doesn't have raisins.

Imagine driving up to a cozy restaurant snuggled in a historic neighborhood and the valet not only…read moregreets you with a warm smile and pleasant demeanor, but also offers you a glass of champagne or infused sparkling water as soon as you exit your vehicle! Then upon entering the establishment, the ambiance is set with a fire steel emblem flown in from Spain on warm dark mahogany wood walls. As you stand with the hostess, you hear the sounds of a playful piano and cool tunes echoing in the foyer and inviting you inside. The chic seating to your left catches your eyes in a quiet room where business deals are closed or the stress of the day silently drips away onto plush club chairs pulled up to hard wood tables. As you are seated, the young bartender feverishly shaking the next best cocktail offers a warm smile as the dim lighting and low murmur of happy patrons set the mood. Southern charmers dressed as wait staff great you with broad smiles; hanging on to your every word as if providing you with this experience is their life's mission. Imagine a Brahman bull quietly walking into a room, booming with a commanding presence and standing by your side. His mere existence demands the room and the team's respect and reverence for "the bull" are apparent; providing quiet direction as the staff whispers "Yes Chef" before hurriedly taking on the mission. Then as if being pampered (and what feels like being waited on hand and foot) by the service team is not enough, the quiet strength of the Chef appears at your table side in order to assure your food, drinks and overall experience from the moment you arrive are Michelin level. When you are here, you are transported to another world. The offerings are beyond and exceed any and all expectations. The sparkling water obviously tapped from a snow cap mountaintop spring, a tapestry of goat cheese, kalamata olives, thinly sliced beats, fresh crisp miniature cucumbers, sweet cherry tomatoes and fresh baked bread with an herb garlic drizzle. A mocktail that literally danced a slow sultry breeze across my palette. Smokey, charred roasted Brussels with a balsamic vinaigrette reduction to create the contrast of sweet yet savory. A Valencian Paella brimming with authenticity, fresh shrimp, clams and mussels atop luscious saffron rice. Tender juicy, charred lamb chops sliced with ease and served with pure love of the gift of food. Be warned before you arrive here, you will absolutely, positively, unapologetically fall in love with this establishment. It is not a restaurant. It is a life changing experience.

Beautiful restaurant. Perfect for a date or gathering. The…read moreservers and staff were courteous and attentive. We ordered the octopus, the mussels and a charcuterie board with cheese and meat. The octopus and mussels were delicious. The charcuterie board was tiny and underwhelming though. I'd give this place another go.

It was pretty busy on a Sunday evening at 6pm…read more Bread service was nice. The butter was tasty and the bread was warm. I'm going to be real: The French onion soup was better than the one I had in Paris. It's cheesier and the broth was creamier and thicker. The wife doesn't love onions and I'm not a French Onion soup guy, but we couldn't stop eating this. The only thing I missed from Paris was the crunchy baguette. The coq au vin was excellent. The wife expected dry chicken breast with a tart wine sauce. The chicken fell off the bone and the mushrooms soaked up the delectable sauce. I had the steak and fries because I got the dinner special on the side of the menu. The steak was cooked a little less than my usual medium rare but that's ok. The butter sauce I got with it was good but not mind blowing. I wanted to immediately pass out after eating because the food is heavy. Service was great and noise levels were a little on the loud side. This fancy but not too fancy. Parking is $2 with valet - tip. Maybe just me though: I hate valet parking. Would I come here again? Maybe. French cuisine is not usually my first choice but there doesn't seem to be a ton of competition around the area.

I look forward to adding this spot to my foodie rotation!

First time dining here, so we parked at Colony Square and walked to the restaurant. We used Google…read moreMaps and didn't realize the restaurant is located right inside the High Museum of Art area. Parking around this area is always expensive and hectic, especially on weekends. The place definitely has an "old money" aesthetic with velvet seating, curtains, and white tablecloths. Their logo and menu are also very well designed. We made reservations in advance for a birthday dinner. Somehow, the receptionist took quite a while to find our reservation, and even after we were halfway inside, he stopped us again and asked us to wait while he double-checked. Aside from that small hiccup at the beginning, everything else was good. The highlight of my experience was definitely our server, Luke. She was very knowledgeable about the menu, super friendly, attentive, and thoughtful. She made sure I had a good birthday experience by offering to remake my mocktail when she noticed I didn't enjoy the honey syrup in it, even though I was too shy to ask for a change myself. We ordered: - Sourdough and Cornbread: not complimentary, this is a menu item by itself, and it tasted good. - Smoked oysters: The oysters were fresh with no shell fragments, and they tasted good. - Anchovies & sherry butter: The anchovies were a bit too salty and sour for my taste, and the bread was slightly soggy instead of toasty and crisp. This dish didn't suit my preference. If you've ever had Thai canned sardines in tomato sauce, the anchovies tasted similar, just without the tomato sauce. - Steelhead trout: The fish itself was good, but I wasn't a fan of the black-eyed pea sauce. The caviar was mixed in, so I couldn't really taste it either. This was my second time having steelhead trout, and it really looks a lot like salmon. - Roast chicken: A solid roast chicken, simple and well done. - Chocolate mousse: The mousse itself was good, but it had za'atar on top, which tasted like black pepper to me. It gave the chocolate a slightly strange flavor, not bad, just not our preference. If we had known beforehand, we probably wouldn't have ordered it. - Lemon tart: I liked the meringue, but the tart filling was a bit too sour for me. The flavor itself was good; I'm just not very used to strongly lemon-forward desserts. The savory food was good, but the desserts were a bit of a miss for us. Luke kindly offered to replace the dessert, but we were already planning to leave. Overall, it was a lovely experience. Highly recommended.
