I took my wife to Patou for a date night, and was not overwhelmed by the food.  The service was satisfactory, but not as good as one would expect for a French Bistro with $20+ dollar entrees.  The food was marginal to disappointing, once again not the caliber to expect.  Also the restaurant was only about 1/4 full on a Friday night, never a good sign.  Go to Lulu's off central instead.
