Although the service is abysmally European (read: inattentive, rude and oddly overbearing at times), the mussels in white wine sauce are delicious. The owner is Belgian, and can be very nice at times (especially if she remembers that you are in the same advanced French class at UH). I have tried a few other dishes on the menu (chicken stew and steak), I have found them to be uneven at best. Sometimes the steak is deliciously tender, a perfect base for the variety of delicious, rich sauces; and sometimes it is tough, full of gristle and greasy. I'd stick to the mussels and fries (the latter served with homemade mayonnaise - so good!), which are ALWAYS good, and be sure to dip the French bread in the broth the in which the mussels are cooked. I have never tried to desserts due to being too full, but they look delicious.
Pros: great mussels and fries
Cons: terrible service, other dishes on menu not as good as the mussels
