I came here for lunch on a rainy Saturday in early November 2023 as it was very close to a store we…read morewere going to later that afternoon. We arrived shortly after 12 and the café was fairly quiet, with just a few diners. We were quickly seated by a server who was very efficient throughout our meal.
The café has a large menu, including breakfast/brunch items as well as all-day fare (breakfast was no longer being served by noon). There were some typically French classics such as steak tartare and croque-monsieurs. The seasonal special at the time of our visit was the tartiflette, which the server emphasized to us was homemade. We wound up ordering the tartare and the tartiflette, both of which were served with a side salad. My boyfriend was very satisfied with his tartare. I had never had a tartiflette before but it was very rich and creamy as I'd expected, although maybe not my usual taste. My boyfriend (who is French) said it was a well-made tartiflette although maybe not the best he'd ever had.
For dessert I got a café au lait viennois which was served with a small madeleine cake. The presentation of the drink was beautiful and would definitely be something great to order to impress a visiting tourist. It was also very tasty and perfect for the rainy weather.
The café had a very typically " Parisian " brasserie vibe, with wicker chairs, dressed up waiters and a bonus view of the Madeleine across the street. The prices were quite high as it's in the center of Paris ; each of our main courses ran us just under 20€ for pretty average fare and hot drinks were around 6€-9€ each. My boyfriend's 25 cl Carlsberg was 6,90€. I would recommend coming here for a quick bite and/or a drink if you're in the area and are not expecting something too special, but want a Parisian brasserie experience.
