This French American bistro resides in a 60 year old country cottage where style and romance are deliciously combined. The decor is rich, intimate and romantic. The menu offers contemporary renderings of classic bistro dishes.

The quaint champagne bar features an extensive selection of champagnes by the glass as well as champagne cocktails, martinis, wine and beer. Most notable is the ceiling mural in the bar, depicting a 'champagne war' between cherubs and monkeys holding bottles of champagne.

A fireplace lit covered patio offers the perfect destination for outdoor dining beneath antique chandeliers.

A Message From Chef David Shofner

The "Perfect 10 Restaurants" will each be serving the same high-quality proteins, but each chef will prepare them differently in order to best represent our own culinary styles and restaurant cuisine.

I'm excited to present the dishes I have created especially for this occasion.

View the Perfect 10 menu.
