We stopped by this place yesterday and were genuinely impressed by the four-course menu degustation. To start with, the chef treated us to a complimentary sample of beef tartare, which we found delightful. Following that, we indulged in tuna tartare, fish soup with mussels, steak tartare, and finally, gateau Marcel. The overall experience was delightful; the food was delicious, and the waitress was exceptionally friendly. If we could offer one suggestion, it would be to expand the selection of non-alcoholic beverages.

I've given this place many chances, but I'm consistently disappointed. This time, I decided to try it out during Dining Week and on Valentine's Day. Unfortunately, the experience fell short once again. The portions were ridiculously small, and many dishes lacked flavor. We had to ask the waitress for soy sauce to add some taste to the food. Additionally, I was seated behind a door that kept getting slammed, which was quite bothersome and prompted my date to suggest switching seats. I'm certain I won't be returning here.

Had my birthday dinner at Nimb. We tried oysters, lobster bisque with scallops, steak tartare, and steak frites. The service was top-notch, and the place is cozy, perfect for a date. The Tivoli view is a bonus. But, truth be told, the food didn't blow us away. The steak tartare was too wet, and the salad was a bit bland. I might go back for the vibe and the Tivoli view, but just for drinks and dessert next time.

I went to eat here for a birthday celebration of a friend and it was clear that the waitstaff that day were new, as they were unable to explain the food we received. Also, as we were opening gifts, we received the dessert, and the timing between appetizers, main course, and dessert was just not that great. We either felt the waitstaff had forgotten about our table (slow with clearing plates) or that they were in a rush, with guests coming right after us. They also politely asked us to leave, as the next guests were coming, but it would have been great to be notified 30 minutes in advance, and not so suddenly. However, when it comes to the food, there are no negative remarks here. We had the set menu, and the food was absolutely delicious. I have even rebooked for another time to try more items on the menu that were not part of the set menu. I hope that when I return, the service will be better, as it is the only aspect bringing down the overall experience.
