Read moreThe Restaurant That Saved My Marriage . Excellent traditional old school French dishes that were simply amazing in both quality and presentation. The staff were very welcoming, friendly , and consummately professional. The dishes are very wide ranging in terms of the type of cuisine ( oysters, fish , meat of all kinds ), with ala carte , program and daily specials all in the mix for your consideration. The bar is well stocked with a good range of excellent spirits , a veteran bartender who does both the classics and new house cocktails well . Wine list is well thought out with carefully chosen wines across many appellations, regions and styles with a lot of very good and affordable options across the price and ambition range . Overall an outstanding gem of a place within easy walking distance of the craziness of the main drag in Pigalle with none of the crowds. Highly recommended as a new favorite- even if it hadn’t saved my marriage 😜 Backstory : we were having a major argument about where to have dinner - it was getting too late ( after 8:30 ) and the only options either had very long lines or empty for good reason ( terrible food ) . We were having a major blow up after a long day . Rapidly running out of options when we went into a friends bar ( Dirty Dick ) to get some advice - The owner was not in but the staff said this was his favorite restaurant and they highly recommended it both as the owners preferred place and personal experience The staff were welcoming and the restaurant and food were magnificent and went a long way to repairing our relationship..Thanks to...
Read moreMy partner and I are Americans visiting Paris for the first time. We got a recommendation from a local to try this place. The first night we went we were treated well, the food and service was good if not great even though we don’t speak much French. A few nights later we wanted to try takeout since their website says you can order online for takeout. We called to make sure, they said they don’t do orders over the phone so we had to come in to order. My partner went in the restaurant to place our takeout order, which they seemed a bit weird about (maybe they don’t often do takeout?). After placing the order he waited there for the food since it was unclear how long it would take. Then he noticed a group of 5 or so staff pointing and looking at him and saying “takeaway.” When he looked over at them, the guy smiled at him. There was obviously a language barrier so we could have misunderstood parts of what was going on; however, we did not feel as though we were being treated as paying customers. My partner felt that he was being made fun of and treated like a beggar. When we finally got our food it wasn’t even what we ordered despite us pointing to the menu to order exactly what we wanted to avoid confusion. We will not be going back no matter how good the food is as it’s simply...
