Love love love! Can't wait to go back to this beautiful place. Can't fault anything. Service is impeccable, food is divine, atmosphere is romantic. We licked our plates afterwards haha. Thank you! Worth every cent spent. ๐Ÿ‘Œ

The food was delicious, the steak was cooked to perfection, exactly as ordered, and paired beautifully with the blue sauce. The gratin dauphinois was super fondant and full of flavour, and to finish, the tarte tatin was simply divine. But the highlight of the evening was our French waiter, Jimmy, who was amazing from start to finish being attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better. Merci Jimmy for such a great service!

Amazing food and service. Great atmosphere, delicious cocktails, and the flavour profile of the food is perfectly balanced. The Octopus starter was a showstopper; the confit duck leg was fantastic as well. Overall a great restaurant. Canโ€™t wait to be back.

Came here for dinner and ordered the smoked cod croquette, swordfish tataki, beetroot parisienne gnocchi, tempura fish, and chocolate fondant. For starters, the croquette was hot and crispy, filled with shredded cod and paired with a creamy squid ink aioli; and the swordfish tataki was light and refreshing with the cucumber which was flavoured with a lemon and chilli emulsion. The parisienne gnocchi was light and airy, topped with some grated cheese and crispy kale for some texture; it was flavour packed from the rich garlic emulsion, balanced with the occasional sweetness of the beetroot. For mains, had the tempura fish which was paired with cucumber and cream and dollops of parsley emulsion. The fried fish was tender and meaty but the coating was not crispy; pairing of the parsley emulsion and the side of cucumber and cream was a bit plain and one dimensional. The gratin dauphinois side dish was much better; the thinly sliced potato was baked with cream till soft and topped with plenty of stretchy cheese which was melty but not gummy. For dessert, had the dark chocolate fondant which was paired with raspberry sorbet. The fondant is filled with a liquid orange which was mild and not overpowering, and the tartness of the raspberry sorbet balances the rich chocolate sweetness; however the basil crumble was very hard and crunchy which didn't go well with the soft fondant. Overall everything was tasty except for the tempura fish which was underwhelming. Service including the pacing of the dishes was good.
