Located in the Triangle and just a short walk from the UNC Campus, sits this old-world style French restaurant. The decor has a crisp, clean appearance with hardwood floors, light blue painted walls over cream colored wainscoting, and a brown painted ceiling that offsets the gold chandeliers. French art in gold frames adorn the walls, and the handful of tables are set with Villeroy and Bock china. Chef Chip Smith's signature dishes are crispy sweetbreads with a coarse grain mustard sauce, rabbit with green olives and fresh pasta, and French classic desserts such as creme brulee. The impressive wine selection perfectly complements the entrees, and the service is friendly while remaining professional. Diners should make reservations a few weeks in advance, since the restaurant is small and tends to fill up quickly.
