Was frantically looking for a spot to eat a very late lunch and settles for this place. I kept flip flopping between the burger and mussels and when I told the waitress I wasn't ready, she didn't come back until 20-25 minutes later. Apparently she "forgot" due to some jet lag she was experiencing. Anywayyyyys...she offered to comp my glass of Pinot noir which totally appeased me. I sat outside and munched on bottomless French bread and soft butter. The heat lamps were on so I wasn't freezing at all on this winter cold day. I decided to have the mussels with garlic and lemon. It was amazing! I kept asking for bread to soak up the broth. Cute neighborhood with ample parking (at least during the time I went which was around 1:45/2...). If I do come back, I'll get the burger! With Brie....I would have given 4 stars, but she took a while and I had to wave to her while she was inside and I was out front outside. She then sent the bartender over to take my order. And another thing, she had forgotten to get me water - I had to ask twice. She was friendly and did explain herself but I felt, by that point, it was kind of too far into the experience to assign 4 stars. Hope this explains to that other Yelper who couldn't seem to understand where the 3 stars came from.
