Stopped by for lunch a few minutes early with our 1pm reservation on a Friday a couple days after Christmas day. Although the restaurant was nearly full, we were seated immediately upon arrival at our reserved table. We had a couple small dogs with us that sat quietly under our table. It did take about 20 mins after being seated before our server showed up to take our orders, but we probably needed that much time to review the extensive 7 page menu. Although it did take some time to get our order delivered to the table, our server was very nice and efficient.
We started with La Bistrot (pour 4 personnes) a “Planches XL a partager” which included a nice sampling of tasty appetizers including saucisson, goat cheese, pate, etc. which was quite filling. The small bread rolls were a bit hard and were not as fresh and crunchy as one would expect.
Given the meals being quite pricey, we were disappointed in the overall taste and quality of the food served. The Bavette de Boeuf Angus was tasty, cooked med rare as requested and was served hot; however, the quality of the meat was not good – too tough and sinewy. The tartare de boeuf sicilien was tasty and well-prepared. The Moules Marinieres were good but not exceptional.
Overall, we found the service here to be friendly but slow because nearly every table was taken. Food is a bit too pricey for the quality delivered so we will...
Read moreDriving to Paris Reims was our lunch stop to Paris. There’s street parking near by it’s a 5 mins walk to this street. Walking up and down we ended up sitting here.
We ultimately chose this place because they sell champagne by the glass where others sold by the bottle. We are in the champagne region and driving to Paris so we just wanted a glass.
Service was great it took a bit of time but it is summer and they are quite busy so be patient they are working hard.
Menu also comes in English ask for it :)
The menu is massive has a wide range with tourist and local cuisines. They have a small option for French food if you want to try.
They bring you truffle popcorn while you wait. Truffle popcorn.
Food was great, super generous with the truffle, good atmosphere sitting in the street people watching close by to the town square. Price is mid range reasonable compared to other places we walked past was above our...
Read moreOn Wednesday the 19th of July I had lunch with 4 people for €80. After payment with card they told us it was rejected and that I had to pay again. I checked my bank account and there it showed I paid the €80. After a discussion they promised me that when they will see the first payment was also done they would pay me back in 1 or 2 days so I paid a second time €80. Thursday nothing, Friday nothing so we called them; they told us we were right and that they saw we paid 2 times and that we will get the money back this day. In the evening again nothing so we send an email; no response. Called again on Monday; the manager was not there so they could do nothing. Finally on Tuesday after almost 1 week we received back our €80. There was absolutely no response from their side and we had to call several times to get OUR money back. We will never go...
