Our friends decided to take us to this restaurant b/c we requested French food. This place was sorely disappointing. I ordered the scallops as an appetizer -- a dish that was recommended on this site. The scallops were way too salty. But it got worse -- I ordered the lamb chops. First, they were tiny, mostly bone and very little meat. Then I couldn't even cut into the lamb b/c the meat was so tough. And then when I finally managed to get a piece into my mouth, it tasted bad. Little seasoning and horrible aftertaste. The mashed potatoes were even bad. Dessert was decent -- we ordered the berries with cream, which was actually quite good but how can you mess that up, and also ordered a bread pudding which was just mediocre. Overall a very bad experience. There are much better french restaurants in Chicago!
