Very hungry tourist on the prowl away from the hubbub. As a diehard francophile, I took a calculated risk ... and was well rewarded. I arrived way too early for the opening and was perfectly happy to wait, but a lovely, happy person (the beautiful chef/owner) welcomed me with warmth and complete ease. I knew I had chosen well. The menu offered all sorts of delicious brunch options, and I decided to have a little bfast snack and then lunch--pain au chocolate with a divine cappuccino followed by a salade nicoise with fresh tuna. So so good! Perfect portion, beautifully prepared. Not silly or excessive. Just right. Kind, personable service. French music, too! Un lieu de rencontre chic et sans e...
As requested, we were seated outside. We ordered a rose and escargots which were very good in the traditional olive oil recipe. Lots of fresh baked bread. The entres we’re all equally good. We ordered trout almandine, steak au proive, and I ordered a Cacio e Pepe pachetti. For desserts, pro bite roles and an apricot tart. A wonderful meal. The service was good but we had a young lady who had just started, normally, the service is out if this world. Chef Amina came out a couple if times to check on us.
Hats off to the chef for fine classic French dishes and creative international choices. We appreciated the limited dinner menu with select choices plus some specials. Lovely atmosphere conducive to chatting and enjoying those you're with. Located on a quiet commercial street in Miami Shores, it is a hidden gem in the neighborhood with easy and free parking, but is a somewhat pricey. Friendly wait staff, eager to please but not disturbing. Good lunch menu including fabulous crepes and very relaxed.
Food was fantastic! A bit of a wait but worth it especially when it’s authentic. Black owned gem away from the Miami fuss. Intimate decor, head chef and owner and waitstaff were more than hospitable! Would go back in a heartbeat.
