Used to be a great neighborhood spot, open late, with great bistrot and brasserie fares. Used to be bustling, vibrant and busy and that was the first indication that things had changed when we arrived the other night around 10pm for dinner. Few people, plenty of seats and quiet..that was strange. Instead of moules frites some kind of babaganoush...($ 12 for a lump of it with 2 half grape tomatoes....) Same great decoration but the food is really nothing special any longer, and the bill has gone WAY up ($80 for two with babaganoush and french fries for me and a plain chicken dish for my husband with one glass of wine each.) We will not be back.
