Teeny tiny French resto in LES with literally 3 small tables/high tops and ~8 seats at the bar. Walk-ins only. We came on a Sunday and were first in line (people started lining up around 5:20pm). Would recommend bar seating! We got the mayo eggs (mayo-topped jammy eggs), chickpea crepes (SO good and savory), octopus (wish it were crispier), escargot (nothing special IMO + the snails were tiiiiny, but the sauce is yum), cheese board (pleasantly surprised by this; 4 cheeses of very different tastes, tangs and textures + walnuts), quail (tender and juicy), and the hangar steak (cooked to a medium rare; I am extremely picky with steak and I actually loved this + the scalloped potato things it came with). Overall, a vibey, intimate resto that I would def revisit. Only thing is that they might shift you around mid-dinner cuz limited seating 😂 I had to move seats right/left twice while at the bar.
