Food is always excellent and it's a great place for a chill brunch with friends. </em><br /> <br /> I always tell people to not make plans too close to having dinner there as the service style is based on the French model of dinner taking at least 2 hours. I think it's also because there are a lot of regular diners there looking to relax and talk with friends. Oh, and seconded on the cute waitresses and waiters (even if most of them are gay and off limits to me). Agree with Alie on service – slow, but never really bad.
