    We had a wonderful evening at the French Connection with friends. The waitress was very friendly and service oriented. All the the available, attentive with a good sense of humour. One of the best places we've been in the wine region.

    There was a good choice in the menu. The service was good and so was the food. The decor was French style with a good ambience.

    Located right in the center, a bank in terms of quality and ambience. Unfortunately, on our visit this time, it took significantly longer for our food to arrive. Attentive service.

    Many thanks for the great feedback and your ongoing support. My apologies that the food took a little longer than usual to come out.
