Great great atmosphere. Really nice owners. Food is meh !!! Portion sizes are good but the chef lacks the skills if I was being honest.

A taste of France in the heart of Galway 🌟 They use Irish beef 🥩- incredible steak! I went for the blue cheese sauce 🧀 and it was so rich and creamy. The portion of chips 🍟 is HUGE! Also the amuse bouche had a range of tasty treats like battered courgette pieces and potato croquettes 😋

Lovely authentic French restaurant. Limited menu offering fish of the day, duck, striploin steak or fillet of beef. If cooked rare, it is very bloody. If well done, it can be cinderised. Medium is a good option. Steak tasty, if a little chewy. Other dishes were nice. The starters in particular were delicious, as were the desserts. Piano was playing in the background over a lot of chatter. Very attentive service from an international staff. Our lovely waitress was from Brittany. Great night overall. Popular and busy. It is important to book. Ideal for that special occasion. Merci à tous!
