Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Perfect for second or third dates - impressive setting but pricey ($200+ for two), might feel too formal for casual first meetings
Can I get a table without a reservation? Rarely - try bar seating after 9pm weeknights or arrive right at 5pm opening, but Resy booking strongly recommended
Is it kid-friendly? Not ideal - no kids menu, sophisticated atmosphere better suited for 16+, weekend brunch more family-tolerant than dinner
Best For
Better for: Instagram photos and impressing dates - stunning pink umbrella patio and Riviera aesthetic beat most Melrose competitors
Skip if: You want casual French bistro vibes or value dining - premium pricing reflects location glamour over pure food quality
