Have heard a lot about this restaurant and his chef/owner Thierry. Have to say that the experience was beyond expectations. The whole atmosphere was taken care of to the minimum details, the staff excellent, friendly and skilled. As for the food, few places in Vietnam can beat it, if any. Oysters are a must. For main course we choose a mouthwatering tenderloin, with an exquisite blend of flavors including a non invasive foie grass. We skipped dessert, and went straight to coffee, which came with a variety of indulgent petit fours and a exclusive tea from the house, that completed a incredible dinner. Wide range of excellent wines, mainly French.

This is a reminder that classic French cooking is eternal. A small menu, simple ingredients, and a chef that intuitively knows how to bring all the flavours together into delectable dishes for your palate.
Service is friendly, and personal from the Chef s wife who runs the front of house with a clear sense of pride. The timing can be a little delayed between courses, but this is a small inconvenience.
Where this restaurant lets itself down is in the decor, and therefore the vibe. Whilst we love timeless cooking, we dont need the dining room to be a throwback to 1981 as well.
The chairs are old, the carpet is thick like your Grandma s, and while Chef Thierry will know the difference between lentils and lupins, I am quite sure he has never looked inside an interior design magazine.
So, wonderful food, with service from the heart, but prepare to be uninspired by the bright lights and old-school dated surroundings.
