The menu changes with whatever the chef finds at the markets that day, and it never disappoints. Every meal showcases ingredients at their freshest, prepared with creativity, restraint, and a deep respect for classic French cuisine. What keeps drawing me back, however, is more than the food. There is an authenticity here that has become increasingly rare. The dishes are never contrived or designed for social media. Instead, they celebrate the simple elegance of French cooking, where impeccable ingredients and flawless execution speak for themselves.

Café Mademoiselle was nearby, had a sidewalk full of diners, and I grabbed a table quickly, fearful of getting shut out of lunchtime offerings entirely. I should know better than to order a salad in Paris. Not that they'e bad, simply that they're quite different than California salads. Quite different and not as appealing in my opinion. But another dish was also ordered at my table, an unusual choice for the two of us dining there. It was a special of the day, Araignee de Porc (23€), and not something I'd personally have chosen. It was delicious. French chefs know what to do with this cut of meat (pork) and I was wowed. The salad (Salad Nicoise, 23€) was almost forgotten as the pork dish took center stage. Service here is terse. The restroom is down a steep flight of stairs. The place serves many tourists, and does so in a manner that doesn't inspire one to harbor overly fond memories. But here's the recipe for success: find out what the chef's special is that day and order that. That's how you do Café Mademoiselle.

FAST Food: very good. We chose their dinner special, appetizer, entree and desert, which has some limited choices but all were good. I had the cold mashed peas with smoked salmon and this was really good, the salmon adds a great flavor, and soaked up the remainder with some of the bread.

We believe our primary server may have been in training, so we are somewhat understanding of the situation. However, the other servers appeared disorganized, and for an establishment that positions itself as an upscale dining destination, it was disappointing that staff members were not consistently aware of what we had ordered. Overall, I would rate the experience 7 out of 10. The food was very good--while not exceptional, it helped compensate for the shortcomings in service.k

His command of English is excellent and he is a professional and courteous waiter. This resto skews rather touristy but the food was honestly not bad. (It was recommended to us by a tour guide and my friend wanted to come here.) We came for lunch late on Thursday around 2:45pm. I ordered linguine a la nonna (with eggplant) and my friend ordered the veal stew. I enjoyed my linguine. It was freshly and simply prepared with a light tomato sauce, fresh parmigiana, and bits of eggplant. She enjoyed the stew. Both portions were generous. We were going to head out, but then Mehdi brought over the dessert tray. (He's quite a good salesman with a bright smile.) We enjoyed the raspberry macaron along with two cafe au laits. A lovely ending to a good meal. They have nice bathrooms downstairs. There a very cool basement elevator that you may get to see in action in a very surprising place. Keep an eye out for it!
