This sophisticated, yet casual Mediterranean brasserie overlooking Nicollet Mall features traditional French cuisine. The inviting dining room is appointed with antique mirrors, warm wood, plush semi-circular booths and sunny yellow walls.
Service is professional but relaxed.
Atmosphere is festive but not loud, classy but not stuffy. The Food French classics are served, including escargot, bouillabaisse and coq au vin. Most renditions are good, if a bit uninspired. Rich onion soup is topped with a thick blanket of cheese. Steak frites is a juicy, tender New York strip with McDonald's-style french fries.
