I had a coupon for a free sangria drink. It was large enough for 4 people! It was refreshing and although mildly sweet, the flavor of the red wine was still there. Here, the otoshi (seating charge dish) was a garlicky seafood flavored bagna cauda, heated over a flame. It almost like a lobster dip, and was probably the best part of my meal today.
The signature Pot au Feu, using a soup base of their famous chicken, was spicy and way too salty. You're supposed to add sour cream little by little to change the flavor, but it didn't change much since it was so salty and hot anyway. I couldn't even taste chicken in the broth because of this. The potato had a kind of strange uncooked dough flavor.
The small restaurant had an American bar-like feel. The music playing included American country, pop, soft rock, Keshia and YMCA.
