Went here for my dad’s 64th birthday with the family. The service was great and the meals were good portion sizes and very tasty. The special, a red snapper dish, was fantastic. It almost tasted like three different seafood dishes in one! Highly recommended for any occasion or a nice dinner out with a loved one.

It’s a fine dining area..and we loved everything we ordered.single order of fresh mussels was ample for our group of 7. And every other dish it tasted sooo yummy.

We booked a private room for a life celebration event and were more than pleased. Nick, whom I worked with, coordinated everything perfectly. From the private, personalized menu to helping with entree and appetizer selections. The service staff was outstanding not to mention the food was exquisite. Every attendee raved about their entree and the quaint, sophisticated atmosphere. Thanks Coquette, you made everything spectacular!

The French onion soup was great, very robust flavor. The main course was just OK. The gooey fish skin was not edible and the seasoning on the fish and risotto was a little bland. The desert was very good. It was a key lime pie with a meringue and caramel sauce. I prefer the traditional style, but still very good. I guess when i visit a restaurant and order a $25 dish, i expect it to be the star. Because of my level of expectation, i have given only 3 stars. I did try some dishes of others at my table and they seemed very good. I wouldn’t be opposed to trying this place again in the future and adjusting my rating accordingly.

Great French food! Decent wine list (not amazing but fine). The decor and setting is very cozy and romantic. Ideal place to bring a date. Bill the bartender is great and knows his stuff.

We just moved to the area and we’re looking for a place to go for our anniversary. It was amazing. The food and cocktails were phenomenal. Service was excellent. We brought our baby which was no problem. The even gave us a special dessert for our anniversary. We will be taking all of our out of town guests here.

Very nice and romantic ambiance. When I visited there were groups of friends as well as couples there. The waitress that helped us was very pleasant. I had the trout and it was very good. The crème brulée was not amazing but was good as well.

This was the second time that we went to the restaurant. The first time we went to the restaurant it was fabulous! Lots of appealing specials. This time, there were no entree specials…very disappointing! The appetizer soup was a Chipotle Pork, which I would think would be better suited for a Mexican Restaurant, not a French Restaurant. So, with no entree specials, I ordered the Skate. There were three small pieces of fish on a huge salad. The fish was so salty I couldn’t even eat it! So I sent it back and ordered the trout instead. The trout was better, but I believe the cook didn’t season it at all. So, I had a rather bland piece of fish on a bed of croutons. Yes, that right. Fish served on croutons. Go figure. Would have been nice with rice or a potato, but dry croutons? Not worth the money. Don’t think I will be going back.
