Il Fico — Restaurant in Paris

As an Italian I am so disappointed about this restaurant. First, the service is awful. Tonight was cold in Paris and we deliberately reserved a table inside. Not only was our table near to the entrance, the window next to it was also open. The waiter told us that he was going to give us another table located in the mezzanine.

We waited 20 min to be seated with a reservation, and 30 min for the check and had to go to the counter ourselves to ask for it again. In the end we were in such a hurry to leave that we didn’t think to apply the discount we already spent our TheFork points on, so lost €25. The food is good and cheap but definitely...
