"This pocket-sized neo-bistro on the Lamarck side of the butte ropes in locals with its playful, internationally accented fine dining dishes. The finger foods also stand out. Cajun-spiced zucchini beignets with just enough mozzarella to pull are paired with a homemade garlicky "sauce blanche," an upgrade from the one you find at every local kebab stand. Barely seared langoustine skewers are intended to be folded into a lettuce cup and seasoned with smoked salt and amba-spiked mayo. These creative plates become the perfect excuse to get cozy on a first date, especially when you add in a cozy, low-lit dining room and genuinely warm service." - Emily Monaco
