Fodor's Review:

It's hard to decide whether to work your way through the à la carte menu or go with a prix-fixe dinner. Either way, the French and Belgian dishes served in the sweet dining room made to look, yes, just like Grandma's, are as comforting as you'd expect; try the succulent crab cakes, grilled squab, roast lamb, or lobster and shrimp sausages. The chef makes some of the ingredients himself, like the vinegar for the vinaigrettes, forages for local mushrooms, and makes a point of tracking down top-quality produce and meats.
