We ate here based on all the recommenadtions from this board. The food was very good and the service was exceptional. We asked our hotel to make the reservation for us, but I would think you could wait until maybe a few weeks before your trip?

A few days ahead should be sufficient. Checking my credit card statement, our dinner with 2 Kir Royales and a bottle of wine was $162.
On our last visit, Jean-Pierre was his usual charming self, and the cuisine was wonderful as usual. It is quite an experience to listen to his explanation of the various items on the menu, because you want to try everything. For the first course we both had his signature dish, a corn crepe with warm foie gras and a vinegar and butter sauce that is just incredible. My wife had the sole with a sauce of passion fruit and butter, I had the best lamb of my life. Passed on the cheese. Sorbet for her, and for me the warm figs and raspberries in a light cream sauce.
