Nice French bistro located in Astoria where you would normally find Greek fair food.  The atmosphere is dark and a little noisy, mostly from the bar.  Parking is on the metered street but it ends at 7PM.  Side street parking is available with a little hunting.

Scallops on top of risotto.  Very good.  Risotto is cooked very well and the scallops are done just right.

Cerviche.  Very good.  Great lime flavor with a tomato based flavoring.

Mussels with bacon and melted swiss cheese.  Very good.  Lots of food for this plate.  Great sauce for dipping bread.

Sauteed spinach with garlic.  Very good.
