This ambitious French restaurant is located near Ansley Mall in a cottage
with a charming terrace.The kitchen does wonderfull correct versions of bistro classics such as duck confit over potatoes and green beans, and the often elegant specials are worth watching.

Best Patios - 2004

From all appearances, this charming cottage located on congested Piedmont Road near Monroe Drive, has hit upon the right combination of cuisine, service and, well, atmosphere. A smart crowd is patronizing the place for its French classics, and, surprisingly, for its outdoor seating (strategically planted shrubbery softens the din from the street).
When you alight on the spacious patio, limit your noshing to off-peak hours. Order from a fine wine list and enjoy the tender, aromatic escargots with white wine, garlic and herbs (you won't find snails on many patios-or in dining rooms for that matter). rack of lamb with polenta cake, ratatouille and thin green beans and salmon tartare with lemon cream and tarragon are also good choices. For dessert? Chocalate and the perfect cafe au lait.
