"Dishes are variations on the bistro standards: asparagus served every which way; snails, fish soup, scallops and so on; the wine list is good and seating comfortable if not spacious."
"Follows good brasserie-style cooking, with French and Flemish inspiration. The prix-fixe menu has a choice of around eight starters and ten main dishes; the something-for-everyone approach works well." Full review
