Editorial Review

First, the celebrity angle: Sandra Bullock is the proprietor of this bistro. Now that that's over, a review of the food: the mix of French, Creole, and American is organic and comforting. Descend a small flight of stairs and enter Old World environs. We're talking meticulous woodwork, etched glass, and antique mirrors. It's dark and on the down-low, but constantly humming with precious conversation among sophisticated circles.
