Anything salmon is equally superb. The lightly smoked version over a cucumber sauce with a side of their dense dark bread and mushroom butter is bomb! Service is quick and painfully polite. We had a 1 hour window for our connecting flight to New York -- and ate calmly and made our connection with plenty of time to spare.

We were unable to get a reservation online so we decided to see if we can walk in and we were warmly received. We were given a very comfortable table in the center of the dining room. We opted to order the steak and fries, as well as escargot and the smoked trout. The bread service was also outstanding. We paired our meal with a cocktail and a glass of wine.
