Profile

According to the owners, the name means “crazy” in Provençal dialect. More specifically, “someone who has a fairy in his head.” That might explain how they ended up in the never-never land of Williamsburg, but well done dishes like coq au vin, cassoulet, and tender sautéed calamari, not to mention the gentle prices, seem sane enough.

Brunch

Fri., 10 a.m.—4 p.m.; Sat.—Sun., 10 a.m.—5 p.m.

Recommended Dishes

Lamb steak, $19; tuna and vegetables, $19

This place is one of the top restaurant in the city, my opinion. I had diner last week with friends here and we had great time. The food is great and so delicious. I had nothing to complain about this restaurant. I think its price is high, but if you go as a dating couple, then your man is the one, whose knows how to treat a lady.

Awful food

The food was not well prepared or tasty. It could be that what I ordered was horrible, but never have I brought guests to a restaurant and had everyone in the party be disappointed with the food.
