Mixed feelings on this one, and maybe my expectations were too high, but ultimately disappointed here. Had the $388 set menu that includes a glass of house red or white wine, and a dessert. Walked in with no reservations on a Friday evening, but the place was full by the time we left. First of all, the positives. Decor is nicely done, cosy and not too noisy.

First of all, the positives. Decor is nicely done, cosy and not too noisy. Service is attentive and prompt (maybe too quick, but then again there's only one item on the menu).
The food? Average at best. The salad was fresh and sizeable but the vinaigrette dressing a little too sour. Maybe intentional to whet the appetite?
Ordered the steak as rare (wife got the medium rare). We both agreed that while properly cooked, the beef lacked flavour and was only lukewarm... It was as if they had let it sit for too long before serving. The reason had the sauce on the side, and while it was good, not as spectacular as it was billed to be. I think I prefer a traditional bearnaise sauce, actually.
Fries were piping hot, and while initially good, you soon realize they're a little too greasy.
I had a second helping, which is less than my usual.
Our waitress forgot to serve us bread, which I didn't realize until later. Not a big deal though. To her credit, she refilled my red wine on the house.
The desserts are actually better than the main course, if you still have the space. Lemon/lime sherbet very refreshing and the popular Vacherin d'ete stack has a nice raspberry coulis.
All in all, I would probably not return, though. For the same price you can get a better entrecote at La Vache.
