Fodor's Expert Review Bistro Brie & Bordeaux

A red-and-white striped awning shades the entrance to this charming French eatery housed in an 1875 building which was once home to the town's daily newspaper, and has been restored according to old photos to bring back the gabled roof and other details. With buttery yellow walls, wood beams, and butcher paper on the tables, the dining room is a subtle and warm nod to the old country. Chef Stéphane Desgaches' traditional but sophisticated menu includes mussels in a white wine and cream broth, veal scaloppini with prosciutto and mozzarella, and rack of lamb with roasted fingerling potatoes. Two- and three-course tasting menus are a great way to sample it all.
