A bottle of wine is in the $25 and above range. We had a 91 Burghundy from the Loire valley, I guess for about $32... nice. The appetizer's were outstanding... The split pea soup with small slices of duck... the asparagus with some wafer crust... The salmon with Napolean potatoes for an entree was excellent...The lamb and teh cod were pretty good and the lamb was rather sumbstious... The pear tart was wonderful..The other two deserts were nice... It adds upto $ 50 a head.+ tips if u stick with a bottle of wine among 2/3 persons.. so its not really moderate in price... but a place patronized by quite a few French folks.... The chef came by in the end... a nice touch... All in all a very good place to go for a special occasion.
