TLDR/ Food: Perfection 5/5, Service: Suburb 5/5, Ambiance: Lovely 5/5
As I sat beneath the glowing orbs of light hanging ethereally over the black-tone tables and chairs, Parisian music softly played, a gentle undertone to the classical din of a traditional bistro. Rather than being overly loud the murmur of voices mixed with the sounds of drinks being made and waiters checking in with patrons gave an almost perfect background to the expertly timed meal that was presented to me and my table-mates. Traditional charcuterie and a piping hot baguette were a perfect pairing to the variety of sauces, jams and spreads that accompanied them. The menu, though not vast, had a little something for everyone.
And then we dined, luxuriating in the eggy goodness of a crêpe Diane, the cheesy-salty broth of french onion soup, the sweet tang of duck à l'orange, the crispy zest of Lyonnaise style pork; enjoying all of it, served fresh and well plated.
Food: 5/5 Literally everything was wonderful. I never expected French style food outside of France to taste this good.
Service: Haz our server and Matt the barkeep were both stellar. I would come back and request Haz again, as he was on point in every way.
Ambiance: The bistro feel was perfect. The decor and lighting made me feel as if I could look out the window and see the Rhine passing by instead of a Chinese restaurant across the street. The gold accents and deep tones really sold the vibe and the brightly lit and clean bar area really elevated the whole experience.
