Yeah I thought it was pretty obvious that it was yours, but I guess not.

Congrats, but it appears you guys could work on your image/scenery a bit.

Also does everyone get the special table and served to by the owners or just food critics?:D

The ambiance is subjective- if you love old-world style bistros (like in New York) you'll like it. If you're more contemporary you will find it... old. haha

As far as the service, we aren't aware when a critic comes in. It's just part of the experience sometimes :)

Yeah thats why I added the smirk, I knew it was probably just a snooty critic. I know usually with these smaller places, the service is just always great because its the owners themselves.

Congrats on the good review, but that is some shitty journalism.


"What's this crap on top?" I asked Cheryl.

LMFAO

could not agree more. i cannot understand how people can read the sun... not to mention writing for it. but, it was a refreshing break from bill kaufman (haha i don't read him, but he's an acquaintance. quite the arrogant prick. "i have a column in the sun AND a tv show on chan 13" LOL)
