Adam Reid at The French restaurant reviews






Average rating: 4.7
Love this restaurant. Yes it’s pricey. It’s an experience with wonderful service. Still not convinced about that smoked eel but that’s me and overall the whole meal and experience was wonderful! Add the drinks if you like that… it’s well explained and well curated.
