I would definitely revisit and try different dishes, as it was a great overall experience. I received excellent service at the bar, where the bartender provided great recommendations for their French wines, all of which I found were "Très magnifique". I also learned about new wines I look forward to exploring back home. For dinner, I opted for the smaller plates, including: - the potato pave with caviar - steak tartare - chocolate custard. My favorite dish was by far the potato pave with caviar. The steak tartare was the most flavorful I've had, with its own twist and a hint of chili to add a kick to the palate. I enjoyed the waffle fries, which were super crispy, but I found them way too salty after a while. At times, the saltiness competed with the flavors of the tartare, though it might be a Birmingham thing with really salty fries. I finished my meal with a cappuccino and the chocolate custard, which was very smooth and creamy. Great way to wrap up a great meal. I can't wait to return the next time I'm in town, as it definitely has a unique vibe. Happy dining, y'all!

It's a very intimate bar, galley style. The cocktails are great, they have all the basics and usually a smaller menu of fun options. My friend and I ordered a drink and sat down at one of the tables to take in the show!! They do the burlesque show on the last Friday of every month! It was so fun and the crowd made it feel like a safe space. I'm going to try to bring my mom and some of her friends for the next one! It's a great bar with comfortable seating, and on this night it wasn't so loud that my older, hearing impaired friends wouldn't enjoy it. Burlesque aside, this is a great bar for an intimate drink.
