DELICIOUS food + margaritas, reasonably priced for Paris, & fantastic service. PLEASE NOTE:…read morestandards for service at restaurants in France vs. America are VERY DIFFERENT... we were visiting from the US and quickly learned that in France you can expect slower service & waiters who are very direct and will get you what you need, but won't be checking in with you every 10 minutes and won't bring you your check/water/bread/etc unless you ask for it. It's not a bad thing, just different ‍ so if you walk in with the expectation of US-style food service, don't be surprised if you're disappointed. That being said, this was by far the best service we had while in Paris! Our waiters were friendly, efficient, and very kind and helpful with recommendations/making sure we had what we needed/etc. And the food was incredible, super flavorful and deliciously interesting combinations of ingredients. 10/10 would visit again.

Both my colleague and I picked the 19EUR steak without additional information and it turned out to be 600g, which was insanely huge and unexpected. The meat was tough and unflavourful.

It's okay for its value.

Our 40$ meals were cold and three others contained expired shrimps. Some returned their plate and one of us dared to eat it and got sick the following day. VERY BAD EXPERIENCE. IT SEEMS THAT BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN AROUND FOR YEARS THEY THINK THEY CAN NEGLECT THE FOOD AND SERVICE. WILL NEVER GO BACK THERE.

When we said to him that this is not polite, he just replied that "I don't care, this is Paris and I don't care if you never come back again because my bar is always full". He continued with some racist comments to our Indian friends and he put some plastic cups on our table to put there our drinks and go. I told him in english that this is tragic and he 'll have a problem if he continuous to treat his customers like that and he replied to me that he doesn't care what my opinion is because I am an english person! (btw I 'm not) AVOID THIS BAR, so that some rude racist bar owners understand that they cannot treat so badly to their customers.

We each got the combo platter that allowed us to try multiple meats and sides, and I have to say that I was extremely impressed with the meat. Especially the brisket, a particular favorite of mine when it comes to BBQ. The mac and cheese was a solid side, but the coleslaw was underwhelming. As Americans, yes, we expect large portions. I've been to Europe often enough to manage those expectations pretty well, so I was also pleased when we each reached a comfortable stopping point and were able to get takeaway boxes for our leftovers. I know it's traditionally trés gauche to take leftovers from French restaurants, but I was happy to see that the trend is catching on. After all, not wasting food is a good thing, is it not? We carried those leftovers all the way to Amsterdam the next day--that's how much we wanted to finish them. We opted to sit in the terrace seating that has a suspended plank for a table so that we could people watch Rue St. Denis, a busy street in this arrondissement. It's in a great neighborhood that was vibrant and full of life, even in the wake of the pandemic. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone who would like to try good Texas style BBQ in the middle of Paris.
