"This neighborhood French spot works just as well for a casual Friday night dinner with friends as it does for a first date on a weeknight. Get the martini, an order of crispy socca, and some steak frites. Will the food move you to tears? Probably not. But it just feels good to sit in the dim-lit room and forget about your 40 unread text messages. That's why you'll keep coming back." - alison kessler, candis mclean
