"Helen Freund dined at Vyoone’s — which Zohreh Khaleghi, previously of Flaming Torch, opened in January with Vyoone Segue Lewis — and gushes about the ambience, calling the French eatery both 'chic' and 'charming' in equal measure. Freund calls the Warehouse District restaurant — situated at 412 Girod Street — one of the neighborhood’s best-kept secrets, owing to its romantic atmosphere (think: cushy couches on the patio, hanging pendant lights.) The restaurant’s French-with-Creole-elements menu also impressed the critic. Particularly, a classic indulgent soup somehow made even more gluttonous. The Creole influences mean layering short ribs on a bed of grits, or serving crawfish beignets. The only complaint? The pricing — Freund didn’t appreciate the $46 price tag on a chicory-roasted rack of lamb. Overall, though, the critic was extremely impressed with the menu, saying it’s unlikely that this hidden gem will remain under the radar for long." - Alison Baitz
