Have enjoyed both brunch and dinner at this cute place. Booked a table for both, which I recommend for brunch, although dinner on both Wed and Mon nights was really quiet.
Loved the brunch here, despite it being a 'French' three course meal, rather than just a simple single course. That usually means way too much food for me but this was reasonable and the various courses are good. We started with the free chocolate chip cookies, which were divine and then had the eggs benedict. The next course is all bagels, which were surprisingly decent too. They still have not quite grasped the concept of 'all you can drink' tea and coffee and you have to keep asking for a refill, but the orange juice is nice and the tea, while served without milk as in most of Paris, is palatable (once you get the milk).
The dinner menu has not changed much between the dinners, despite them being almost three months apart, which surprised me. It's very meaty - steak for two, lamb, beef, duck, and some fish. I don't believe there are any vegetarian options, although I may have that wrong. But the food is consistently good and the prices are reasonable, especially for the area.
Love the decor and the style of the place. There is a little bar downstairs, for cocktails or drinks, which I keep meaning to try, although we always arrive just in time...

Read moreYou definitely have to experience this place to know how great it is. It is by far one of the best restaurants that have dined in and the staff was so incredibly helpful. Our French sucked and so it was really nice of them to try to speak English to us. The menu is wonderful because it isn't big and the options are still really good. Each dish that we ordered was designed and executed absolutely to perfection. And I also had a glass of wine which was delicious and I thought the prices were really good for the quality of food that you get here. Don't get me wrong it is expensive but you come here for the ambiance and the quality of the ingredients and the dishes and the service. The bathroom was super clean and there is a downstairs and an upstairs area. The upstairs is super cozy with really good lighting and really clean overall. It's incredible to find a restaurant like this in this...
