The richness of the flavor and the texture which is not reminiscent of the traditional roasted duck or foie gras, but rather a much more like a luxurious and indulgent version. We enjoyed our dinner on the outside of the restaurant after about a 20-30 minute wait. The bone marrow had the best flavor I've experienced for the dish. However, it is definitely overshadowed by the rich flavor of the foie gras. This experience was unforgettable, with our view of Parisian streets on a brisk, April night. We even came back on our last night, but didn't realize the hours on Google maps was for the deli. The restaurant closes earlier, before 9:00 PM. This meal got us thinking about Paris in a positive light, and we hope to be able to come back to eat the amazing dishes again!

This place was a huge letdown. They had a cute little artisanal market on the front left of the…read morerestaurant. They had a number of goods to choose from and I ended up buying a few things for souvenirs. As for the actual restaurant, they had a number of delicious sounding items on their menu. Our server was very attentive to us and helped us decide on our dinner orders. Similar to the other restaurants though. After our food was delivered, it was far in between when we were checked on again. And after dessert it took even longer for our server to bring the bill. Overall, the food was a letdown. I do not exaggerate when I say that the frog legs just tasted like slightly flavored water. My friend's ravioli had a fairly decent flavored sauce but the pasta was a bit chewy. My friend's duck breast was pretty tough; I had noticed the table next to us also ordered it and they seemed to have trouble finishing/cutting theirs as well. As for my steak with foie gras, well the steak was once again tough and the foie gras was weirdly stringy. It was soft for the most part but there were parts that were tough and stringy. Maybe that's a section that's generally separated in the preparation process and it was missed? In any case it was disappointing. What wasn't disappointing was dessert though; perfectly sweet and balanced.

Almost perfect. We had delicate meals of different varieties. The beef was cooked to perfection and…read morethe sautéed mushrooms and sauce that accomplices it was delicious. Foies gras for starters and a couple of delicious "fillers", that cleansed our senses, readying us between courses, were as delicate as they were unexpected. We chose wines from the high end of the price ranges - which was very close to shop prices. Either they're really good at wine shopping, foreseeing enough to buy well in advance or they just don't add a lot their price. In any case delightful to be able to taste expensive wines without bleeding - which gives them the fifth star - it's really good value for money. We sat outside and the hot summer exploded into a rain festival - which was not problem at all, as the massive umbrellas provided sufficient shelter for all of us 9 guests. The waiters managed to cover all servings of courses at the cost of soaking themselves. That's commitment. The desserts were slightly less convincing than the starter and main course - hence the introduction, almost perfect. I know it's not very French to give a tip but I was really impressed by the food, wine and they were very service minded, so I tried to convince the waitress to add 10%. She downright refused. Told me to go elsewhere with my fancy manners. With a a smile that convinced me to come back. The restaurant has an associated hotel which I will give a try the next time we're in this area. And off course we will have dinner again.

These smaller bistro type eateries are the lifeblood of the local cuisine. They consistently offer reasonably priced dishes that are full of flavor and technique. The wine and drink options are well catered to the menu and they provide options for most price points. The service we experienced was exactly what you want... our server had plenty of suggestions based on the offerings of the day. The service was attentive and responsive... not much more than you could ask for. I had the duck breast being offered... it was served alongside crispy potatoes, green beans, and a salad. Adding in the onion soup and a glass of wine... it quickly became a King's dinner at a very reasonable price. I would be more than happy to eat here again and look forward to exploring the rest of the menu offering many local and classic French options.

The desserts are also excellent, even if standard fare. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is updated and convivial. I was desperate to find a good restaurant in Soissons -- this was the best I could find, which surprised me because most French towns of this size would have more options. As I was seated I noticed that there were already two corn bread muffins and a carafe of cold water waiting for me. It was a nice touch to already have them there. I ordered a Mojito as my aperitif and it was excellent! Because I was trying to eat light, the waiter helped me out by getting a larger dinner salad made for my appetizer even though it doesn't appear on the menu. I ordered the chicken breast with cheese sauce (Maroilles) and rice. The sauce was the best part, but really, it was "meh". Two large tables came in shortly after I arrived and although the waiters were constantly busy and friendly when they were waiting on me, I ended up having to wait much longer for each course of my meal, for the coffee afterwards, and for the check. This is why I give this restaurant four stars instead of five.
