This was exactly the type of place. My wife and I were looking for to get a true French experience. The bistro was small but intimate and warm. The servers were wonderful and made us feel like we were part of their family. The food was to die for the steak with green peppercorn sauce was amazing. The marrow was amazing that duck was amazing. We can’t speak more highly about this. It was so good that we have decided to spend our last evening in Paris going back to this place.
The food is consistently good and the prices are moderate. The host and hostess are busy but jovial and engaged. Nice spot a little off the beaten path.
I loved this place. It was a authentic small
French restaurant. The atmosphere and service were superb. The food amazing. We were a party of 5 and everyone loved what they had ordered. A wonderful experience!
While we were fully aware that this restaurant served traditional cuisine and our expectations were fairly low, I must indeed say that me and my wife were disappointed. We have visited very many simpler restaurants in France serving same type of ”a la campagne”, rustique meals, so we know what we are talking about. For the price, even in Paris, you should expect better food. In addition, lack of ambiance, extremely crowded between tables, no good house wine. Not a pure tourist trap but neither far from.
This is some of the best and most authentic French food we have experienced for over 20 years. While we are usually here for 3 months, we come frequently. The serveurs Julien and David, sons of founder Henri, are charming. The patrons are mostly French so not too many tourists. The salmon and the sea bass are beautifully prepared. Everything is very reasonably priced. Make a reservation online as it’s a small and centrally-located family-run restaurant with about 12 tables.
