So I had wandered in alone without a reservation at 2pm on a Saturday afternoon, for a late lunch alone - a much needed break after a hectic week at work and mom duties.The restaurant was busy, but the lunch crowd was starting to clear out. The vibe is lively, bright with daylight and the crowd was a slightly upscale and well dressed clientele - I figured this was promising.Unfortunately, the rest of my experience was wrought with mediocrity.

The restaurant was busy, but the lunch crowd was starting to clear out. The vibe is lively, bright with daylight and the crowd was a slightly upscale and well dressed clientele - I figured this was promising.
Unfortunately, the rest of my experience was wrought with mediocrity. First, not that I like bread that much but I do expect to see bread at even a casual French restaurant
First course, yellowtail hamachi. To sum it up, good but predictable. Tasty, with some lively flavor contrasts, but executed in an overly obvious way.
Main course, roasted baby chicken. The marinade was good but the whole thing was every so slightly overcooked. A chicken that tonight should be succulent, juicy and tender. This one seemed like the work of an amateur home cook, at best. No thought at all had gone into plating this dish, just the chicken in its oil, nothing else. They could have at least popped a few green beans in there for colour. Pretty boring overall.
Finally the bill of $6xx arrived, without so much as a complimentary chocolate to finish.
Overall, I would say that if you want to spend $600 on lunch, you have plenty other choices in Central or Admiralty. I can almost guarantee you will walk away more satisfied at any of the classics like Pierre or Petrus for a similar price.
