Since arriving in Paris, I have been on a search for amazing muscles and fries in this place,…read morewithout a doubt, is it! Being in Montmartre, you are pretty much guaranteed to eat well. So I ventured out on my 20 minute walk to the spot I was warmly greeted and ushered to a table inside. Once I sat down and made myself comfortable, I produced the menu and ordered a glass of rosé a carafe of water, and of course, the muscles and fries. The muscles were cooked in an extremely delicious Normandy cream broth that was deliciously decadent and of course the fries were hand, cut and cooked to perfection. What I also love, is that just about every meal is served with baguette and of course I've used a baguette to dip in the delicious creamy broth - SO SO SO SO Good! After stuffing myself full of muscles and fries, I couldn't eat another bite, but of course I did order another glass of wine. If you were looking for a top tier, muscles and fries, this is a place. You should definitely check out. Beyond that, I saw so many other amazing dishes coming from the kitchen, and I could only imagine what else they have to offer on their delicious menu. Bon appétit.

All around the food was great and the atmosphere was wonderful. Definitely recommend if you are in the museum/tourist neighborhood.

The restaurant does well with everything, except for the food. The indoor decor seems to give an…read moreimpression of diners being in a seaside shack where everyone would enjoy fresh catch of the day in abundance. But the actual food presented here would probably leave you hungry. The pink prawns are nothing more special than shrimps we ordinarily buy from stores. Mussels: each piece is so tiny, and the cream sauce flavor covered up what I wanted to taste- the mussel. The oysters were the only items that were decent. Very disappointed with the lobster roll. We have had lobster rolls in many places of the world, this one does not cut it. For 19 euros, I got maybe two bites of lobster and/ or crayfish meat inside of bread that was over-buttered and so doughy. Each time I chewed the bread it seemed to grow into a bigger bite in my mouth. Interestingly, someone else who also ordered the lobster roll had his bread partially cut off by the chef. Considering how this bread is, the cutting makes total sense. I later asked the chef why that one was done differently, he said: "No, it's done the same way. The bread was not cut smaller." (Although I had just walked pass the cutting board and there it was the rest of the bread still right there...) Likable restaurant concept, pretty photos on their website, but I wish I picked a different place for our special meal in Paris.

It's not often that I take advice from a YouTube channel called "Les Frenchies," featuring a woman…read morewho sports striped sailor sweaters and a sensible haircut, but in this case I did, and I think I've been very wrong about the Frenchies thus far. Because in this case, THEY KNEW THEIR STUFF. I loathe oysters with the heat of 10,000 suns, so I had the paté. It was just fine - tasty, and served with plenty of little toast points. But the paté isn't the point of this place. The point is the oysters, and they are divine. My husband had a dozen of their second-least-expensive oysters and he pronounced them amazing - splendid - SUPERB. They are beyond fresh, served on a proper platter with a tall base, and come with a wonderful bottle of vinegar that's aged in cognac casks. He was warned to use only a drop or two, or it will "kill the taste of the oysters." I don't know about that, but I do know that I tried a drop, and I have never tasted anything like it. It was OMG so good. The oysters come with bread - a basket of sturdy slices of what I think was sourdough rye. He had a glass of Bourgogne Aligoté (white), which was eye-wateringly expensive but very, very good. I had a glass of pinot noir, also of very high quality. The restaurant is very small - maybe 10 tables, including the 3 outside - and looks clean and fresh and chic. We sat outside in the warm sun and fresh breeze and had a delightful dining experience. Wait staff are sweet. No one rushes you. It isn't a touristy joint AT ALL, which is lovely to experience in Paris. My only warning is that if you are a larger person, perch carefully upon the chairs. I thought mine was going to collapse at one point. But it didn't. :-) And the oysters were superb.

Had the oysters since that's what they are known for, but they weren't served ice cold as I…read morewould've expected and preferred. There was a smattering of ice on the tray but certainly not enough to keep the oysters cold. That said, perhaps this is how the French serve them. These were the only whelk of the trip that had sand in them. And, service was underwhelming. I think a party seated after us was served drinks first and I had to walk to the bar to ask for my check. There, I was ignored until I said something. Then, I asked if I should pay at the bar and they replied, "If you want." They clearly were not ashamed that I was compelled to seek out my check on foot. It was just poor service for a $$$ place. Though, the fois gras pate and smoked scallops were quite good. There are so many other great seafood places in Paris; I wouldn't recommend this one.

I settled on the Hal's crab and hubby had the Langoustine Ravioli, which was supposed to be a sharing size. The crab was cold but visually pleasing. There was not much seasoning so the mayo dipping sauce made for a bland tasting dish for me. Hubby enjoyed his Ravioli but the three small pieces did not really seem like a sharing size. Overall nice Paris experience but I definitely left there and ordered some takeout to fill in my empty space.

We ordered the seafood tower (whole stone crab, langostine, 6 oysters (3 local varieties), tiny fried shrimp in a cup, ten or so whelks. We also had the shrimp roll, a delectable sea bass ceviche, a bowl of tiny mussels in curry broth that was just SO delicious and a whole pan fried sea bream atop a thin cushion of pea purée and topped with red cabbage & carrot. Everything was superb and our server was swift and smiling throughout the evening. The restaurant itself is small & charming with a simple rustic feel. We felt it was undiscovered but it's likely it was just a slow night on a drizzly evening. I'd certainly recommend a visit!
