Found the Bistro on Yelp and made reservations for 8:30pm for dinner with my son while we were in…read moreParis on our way to Germany. Just finished a long bike ride to the Eiffel Tower and worked up an appetite. Decided to go straight to the main course. They are known for Au Gratins. My son is not a cheese fan so he opted for the norvigene (smoked salmon in dill lemon and EVOO. I decided to stick with the house specialty; Landais Au Gratin (cream potatoes, duck breast and emmental cheese). The 2 German girls beside me ordered a cider with both their meals so I followed their lead. When in Paris...... Considering the temperature, I almost second-guess myself and ordered something other than their house specialty of au gratin potatoes. In the end, I was very glad I overruled that thought. Brody enjoyed his meal. He just appeared to still be hungry when it was done and a 16 year-old boy that normally has a high caloric intake, I can understand why he wanted a second meal after eating his first! The restaurant in the patio were quite crowded even though we had reservations. They still sat us within five minutes of arrival. Not that five minutes is a long time to wait, but it was still worth the wait as good as the food tasted. We both enjoyed our meals.

THE FOOD ------------------…read more= Fermier - Cheese gratin with chicken was good. Didn't blow me away, but was solid with the creaminess of the sliced potatoes and emmental cheese combined together with mixed vegetables. The cheese was very strong though, so anything else was unfortunately pretty much overpowered by it. Arrived with bread, but it DEFINITELY could use other carb options to sop it all up (e.g., rice???)! = Landais - Cheese gratin with duck. Same comment as the above, except the Landais had egg and goat cheese also mixed in with almost the same ingredients as the Fermier. THE SERVICE ----------------------- + The lone waitress, who also worked the role as greeter, cashier and bartender was friendly. + Food arrived within 10 minutes of ordering. THE SURROUNDINGS ------------------------------------ = Small, tight restaurant. = Not many tables inside - 6 in total. + Located a few blocks away from the more touristy restaurants, towards the East, on a much quieter street. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Nada.

The service was quick, friendly (even by American standards), the food was delicious (we got the escargot, the burger and pork filet), and three drinks (2 Kir Royals and a mojito). It was less than $100 for all of it, and the ambiance was quiet and pleasant. The only reason I took away a star is that we asked for water multiple times (carafe d'eau), but they never brought it to the table.

I made one and did not receive a confirmation email so there must have been a glitch in the system and it did not go through. However, we put our name down on a Saturday evening and only had to wait 20 minutes. The place is very small and charming- we set less than a foot away from another couple which made the experience more fun. We were greeted by a great server and he accommodated to our language- we ordered a glass of champagne and a beer then 6 escargot to start. It was fun diving into the culture as well as delicious. The meals were perfect size for us and had so much flavor! We dipped the potatoes from the beef with the ravioli cheese and it was the most delicious combination. I get the buzz about this place, we had such a lovely time as a traveling couple and would go again for the whole meal anymore!

I went inside and in my horrible French asked if I could have "a place port un." The server was so sweet. He sat me at a very warm table and helped me understand the menu. The food was superb. Warning: the duck tajine is very rich. The vegetables were cooked perfectly. The almonds atop the sauce add the perfect touch. More than anything, I was grateful for the kindness and attention to detail and courtesy. People like this server make the world a better place.

Enjoyed this local spot very much during my trip to Paris last year in July…read more I was staying in a hotel within a 10 minute walking distance from this restaurant, near the metro. Seems to be that every night, no matter which night, this place is PACKED. Make sure if you plan to go that you are fine with waiting 30min-45min. Food was fantastic, had a great selection of Belgian beers to choose from, which I'm a huge fan of. Didn't try and of the cocktails. I will say service was very slow, even considering the fact they were busy. Overall, pretty good experience, not too terribly expensive. English menus readily available and servers all speak English (this is great cause I was a tourist who speaks little French )
