The restaurant had relaxing atmosphere, laid back vibes, the dishes were typically French and tasty.We had a great experience altogether.

Lovely ambience with nice lighting. Very professional and friendly service. The quality of the food was very good. Modest portion but quite adequate. We both had the fish dishes served with Indian rice and ratouiille which were flavoursome and well presented. We shared the pineapple tart which was served with creme anglais and ice cream. It was also very tasty. Restaurant was quiet but that did not detract from the cosy atmosphere.

Lovely place, excellent food and warm friendly service. Highly recommend.Only caveat is if you don&#39;t like fish, you will struggle to find something on the menu.

THis was a lovely find in a quiet suburb. The restaurant seems to have a local following and  is keen to develop.

Good New year&#39;s Eve with fish dishes, great starter, the seabass with champagne was good but a little bit too creative, dessert with strong flavour, price in line for a dinner on New year&#39;s Eve

Star restaurants are all open in clusters. The restaurant&#39;s decoration style is modern and simple, and the chairs look like the same style as Takao Takano&#39;s, but in different colors.
-Welcome snacks: There are three types in total: anchovy crisps + cream, which are slightly thick, but the anchovy skin is super crispy. The pea shape reminds people of Japanese flower arrangement, which is artistic and delicious. The last one is also good.
-Frog Leg and Watercress Soup: Very creamy, the broad beans are beaten into a sauce, and the whole thing is quite fresh. The meat of the frog legs is also very good.
-Shellfish Ragout: There are mussels, clams, cockles and small conches, no sand, and the taste is good, only one is slightly fishy. It is seasoned with lemongrass and ginger, with a strong Asian flavor. Hollandaise sauce is also added, so the texture is very creamy. Although it has a slight sour taste to relieve the greasiness, it still feels a bit heavy after a bowl. The amount of shellfish is quite large in Michelin, and it is refreshing to eat.
- Slow-cooked veal with calf thymus: The veal is very tender and the sauce is slightly sour. The Sweetbreads next to it are what made me mistake them for sweetbreads when I ordered! Sweetbreads are actually calf thymus, the outer layer is baked and hard, and the inside is soft and tastes a bit like between liver and brain? ! It feels quite strange. There are also pork skin crisps on the side, which is quite satisfactory.
- Apple Japanese yuzu yogurt: Those who don&rsquo;t eat cheese can choose yogurt instead. There are 4 fruit flavors. In the end, I chose the apple Japanese yuzu one. It is very refreshing and used to cleanse the mouth before dessert.
- Pre dessert: Slightly sour pudding, also used to cleanse the mouth.
- Cherry theme dessert: I thought I chose the lemon version, but it ended up with the cherry one? It looks pretty, so I tried it. The big cherry is super creamy inside, I like this taste very much. The ice cream on one side is also good, but the one in the middle with bread/cake is average.
- Finally, I had chocolate with Italian sweet bread. Speaking of the restaurant version of Italian sweet bread, I guess Italians would roll their eyes after eating it, the taste is so different...
There are 2 sets of 4 options for the set. In the first set, you can choose: 1 appetizer, 1 main course, cheese + dessert for 90 euros; 1 appetizer, 2 main courses, cheese + dessert for 117 euros. In the second set, you can choose: 4 courses, cheese + dessert for 137 euros; 5 courses, cheese + dessert for 150 euros. There are some differences in the dishes of the two sets. I originally wanted to choose the second set, but after asking, the wood-grilled wagyu in it was Australian wagyu, so I didn&rsquo;t think it was worth it, so I spent 117 euros on the first set. In fact, with the welcome snacks, pre dessert and the chocolate + bread afterwards, it was really full.

We went to a veggie restaurant and we really enjoyed the meal. Place was quiet and the noise level wasn&rsquo;t extreme. We loved the dishes. Their burger is to die for. Copious but really good

Thai Harmonie, which belongs to the category of Thai Food, the taste of the dishes here is not the typical Southeast Asian style. The pot shrimp in it is very clean. But the best dish is the mango sticky rice.

Delicious food, beautifully prepared at a reasonable price.  I would highly recommend! The acoustics can be difficult to hear at times. Otherwise a great experience!

The service was fantastic--friendly and knowledgeable of all items on the menu.  Gave strong recommendations and answered all our questions.And the food--so good!
