“ Convenient to where we were staying and very more-ish. Expensive, but well worth the hangover. No English spoken, but your requirements understood with a little sign language. Very hospitable atmosphere. ”
“ Our first lunch and a wonderful introduction to Parisian bistros! Good food and wine, and a welcoming staff made us feel at home and excited for what else this city has to offer. ”
“ Lovely little bistro just inside the Périphérique. This was a Monday, not sure if it normally would be so quiet on other days. Maybe this is also a place that does more lunch business. Nice welcome, friendly staff able to speak passable English if needed. Good menu, enough choice without being too much. Shared the côte de bœuf (rib steak, if it had had a longer bone it could have been called a tomahawk) with two colleagues, was served with green beans and a couple of sauces. A fourth tablemate had risotto with scallops (instead of with tiger prawns, they were out, and for the same price). All the food was very nice, and portions generous. Ok, the beef was an almost ludicrous portion... but it was cooked exactly to order, a lovely rare. When it arrived, presented on a board and chunkily sliced, all the meat was nicely warm. Very tasty! The risotto was also nicely presented, and tasted very good; the risotto and the scallops were cooked to perfection. The prices for all this were very reasonable (certainly for Parisian standards); €37 for my share of the steak and a nice bottle of red wine we shared as well. The risotto was also reasonably priced at around €18 or €20. Highly recommended! ”
“ Very nice service, tasty food. I highly recommend it. A restaurant worth visiting. Greetings from Poland! ”
“ Everything was very good. From the starter to the desert. Also nice, the staff spoke English as well and was friendly. Thank you for the nice evening! ”
“ Simple but very tasty menu. I can’t say enough about the couple who own the restaurant. They are very sweet and pleasant, hospitable, and welcoming. They have created an atmosphere where you feel like family after the first visit. Service is impeccable and dishes are delivered hot and swiftly. I also appreciate that they support local farmers and vendors. Will absolutely frequent this restaurant when I’m back in Paris. And, I will be back. ”
