Modern French bistro serving classic fare in a chic, vintage-like space with a garden. One of our favorite brunch spot! The Mominette Pancake is a must try, but you may wish to share it as it is literally one large and very fat pancake! Very delicious. I also highly recommend the Egg's Benedict, my personal favorite! On Mondays they have $1 oysters and Tuesday evenings they have live jazz.
