Description: THE STRIP. Enter the massive, wooden door imported from Lyon, France, and step into a casual French bistro reminiscent of an old Parisian brasserie.

An extensive wine list compliments a menu offering a variety of veal, poultry, seafood and wild game. Adding to the sense of casual authenticity is a large rotisserie and oyster bar where the waiters bring your half-shells in the true rubber booted form.
