Just had a really great meal and wine at this lovely little restaurant. Great menu. Good value for money. Delicious food. And the staff were very patient when I tried to speak to them in (my not-very-good) French!

Had lovely dinner there last Saturday night, surprisingly not too busy. The staff was friendly and the food was delicious. My starter was " croustillant d avocat" kind of avocado spring rolls. OMG, it was scrumptious . My husband and son had the foie gras, large slice with warm bread. They loved it. And then we all had the "risotto with gambas" which was very nice too but a bit bland, (we used the slice of lemon of my youngest who had fish and chips ) and then it was absolutely delicious. Would definitely recommend the place.

We walked by at lunch and saw someone’s burger looked great and so we went here for dinner. We really enjoyed our cheeseburgers with added bacon. The fries were also tasty with a generous portion size. My teenage daughter thought it was all delicious. The background music was fun with a mix of modern and 90’s that had us guessing songs and artists.

Been here a couple times, and the food is a real treat. On this occasion however, I must commend the wait staff. Enjoying perhaps my last meal out before the lockdown, some 'ladette' walked past and decided my food was her food, and plummeted her uncovid safe hands deep into my pile of golden frites that I had been saving as a nice treat to finish off the delicious plat du jour. Disarray and heartbreak ensued on my part as she snarkily trotted off back to her lair grinning. Like a superhero, the waiter came out and flagged down some of Paris metropolises finest men and women in blue, who quickly settled on the she-demon and put out her wrath and trail of destruction. Caged, the beast will be dealt with by law and order. The superhero waiter so kindly brought out more crunchy potato goodness as reparation and even upgraded our dessert. Hats off to the waiter, hats off to the Paris police and hats off to justice served
