Absolutely loved it. Was a bit nervous going in given the rules, but the food was well worth it. Out of the 4 courses, the appetizer, soup and dessert were most memorable. Will be back to try other entrees.

One word, respect. You gotta respect an awesome one man show!! He's an amazing chef serving you awesome food course for such decent price. He wants you to respect his rules and truly enjoy the food. We've been here multiple times and loved everything we ordered so far.

They were not kidding about the eccentric attitude of the chef/owner/waiter of this restaurant :) but I felt it only added to the uniqueness of the experience. The food was indeed as good as other visitors had claimed, and portion is certainly generous for French cuisine. I enjoyed the pickled vegetable served in the salad as starter because it's so different. The main course of Coq au Vin is as delicious as any I've had in a Parisian bistro, love the sauce. A definite winning dinning experience worthy of return visits in future. The only downside is how out of the way location is.

As others have said: the meal is excellent - you will pay less for a fantastic, memorable meal than you would pay for a forgettable meal in many other restaurants. And as others have said, you will most likely get berated or spoken down to for some random, trivial act that would never even remotely justify such a negative response in any other restaurant. It's an experience. I am 100% glad I went and would encourage everyone else to try it, and at the same time, I am not certain when I will choose to return. It can be hard to relax in an establishment like this one... but maybe that's ok.

Yes. Absolutely no walk ins

Substitutions are strictly prohibited.

No

Look at the menu on line. $50 per person is probably the max you will spend, though if you want to tip his charity and get a hat or tshirt you might spend a little more. I think our meal for 2 was about $70, it depends on what you want to eat or drink.

Yes, if they are well behaved and not noisy. This place does not encourage loud conversations even for adults. If you can find their website, the long list of rules can give you an idea of the kind of dining experience the chef wants his clients to have.

Yes there is.

The Chef doesn't sell the t-shirts or other merchandise, he gifts them to people who make donations of a minimum amount per item. He might get a tax deduction, but his "merchandise" costs him. It is kind of like he is matching your donation with his swag. I have never heard of him responding to any online questions or requests, I think a customer even set up his Facebook for him? YMMV...
