The interior is quite stylish, staff tries its best (that is not enough), but the food was disappointing.

The interior is quite stylish, staff tries its best (that is not enough), but the food was disappointing. Let me say that the quality of products is great, but then it really lags in terms of execution. The chef was out of town, so that could be an explanation - but honestly if I pay the full price I couldn't care less where the chef is.

Don't try the mussles for a starter. Thet were of perfect quality, but the sauce was a disagrace - no flavor, but super salty. It felt that they just used the sea water and threw in some garlic. We gave it back, and when they brought the fresh one they left the sauce away. Mussles no sauce, but still way too salty (and I usually eat quite salty for Asian standards). The other starters were ok, but not more than ok (presentation was nice, but the taste couldn't meet the high standard the restaurant targets).

The best happened when they served the "bouillabaisse". A whole fish arrived on a tray and we said that we didn't order this. We said we ordered the bouillabaisse. The waiter said that it is the bouillabaisse. We replied that a bouillabaisse is a soup. He corrected us that bouillabaisse are the herbes and it is not a soup. At least I learned something new that evening ;). Next time I am in France, I will pass on my new knowledge when I order a bouillabaisse. 

Bottom line, they try to be high end and modern, but the chef's ambition can't quite hold up with the execution.
