This storefront bistro surprises with perhaps the most cozily elegant dining space in Far North Dallas.
Fresh flowers are all over the place, and oil paintings dot the walls.
Sometimes, in fact, the chef's presence can seem overbearing, especially when minor tiffs with the serving staff occur in the customers' presence. The young chicken substituted for a special was more appealing, though neither dish's winey sauce had much zip. Clearly this is a kitchen where classic French country cooking is taken seriously, though it can seem understated and underseasoned. The menu offers some items that aren't strictly French, but they are less successful. The huge Caesar salad for two, prepared tableside, looked so splendid we added one to our order at the last minute.
