The owner was the only waiter and was both kind and attentive As to what we tried -- the scallops and salmon were excellent but the farmhouse chicken was stupendous.

Service was nice as well. So why only 4 stars? We weren't blown away by any of the dishes we had - again, everything was good, but I won't be dreaming of having it again. The plates were not heated before service, so everything went lukewarm pretty fast. And there were no niceties, e.g. free appetizer or something, that many restaurants in that price range do.

This ultra French and local eatery has a fantastic atmosphere and culinary ambitions.

The staff is extremely friendly and is happy to explain the dishes to you (they also speak English). We had Mojitos with dinner (yeah OK not super French) and they were very good and not overly sweet. A tip: reservations are recommended as this place only have 5 tables. Closed on Sunday and Monday and on quiet days during winter.

The "gourmand" dessert was a nice sampling plate, but I would also recommend the chocolate mousse, which was very tasty. The atmosphere of the place is a little weird- it's unclear what non-traditional theme they're pursuing, but the American rock music is a little strange given the charm of the town. Service was nice and attentive.

The food is always delicious and kept in a French, yet modern style. There are always something on the menu that makes me curious - like the beet root carpaccio I had last year. You can really tell that a lot of heart and soul goes into making the food here. The restaurant has a winter garden ambience during the colder months and is open air during summer. Staff is generally friendly, but could be more attentive (not sure yet if this is a French thing ;-)) and do NOT, I repeat, do not wave your hand to get their attention - you will only be ignored more. Attire is a little dressy here - I would say smart casual (put on that blazer or high heels and lipstick - you will fit right in)
