Good list of wines and spirits, with wine by the glass still reasonable (€7). I had oxtail terrine as a starter - it was delicious, literally cleaned the plate. Veal liver with mushrooms was outstanding - real wild mushrooms (for those of us visiting from the US, it is a big deal), liver itself perfectly cooked as requested and perfectly seasoned. I like how side dishes are served in the little cups, without clobbering your plate. Had some Basque cake as a desert - that was not my favorite, but that's okay. Excellent service, prompt, friendly, attentive. Definitely recommended. Also reservations are highly recommended.

The food was excellent, particularly the Onion soup and the Lamb Confit. The staff was just so friendly, and after our dessert (also wonderful), Violet (the owner) came over with 4 glasses and some Armagnac, which she explained was a drink from her native part of France. We had a drink on the house and had a wonderful chat for 30 minutes! Just a lovely, amazing way to end a wonderful time in Paris - highly recommended!

We were originally sitting on the furthest table into the pedestrian walk until the server noticed we were cold and moved us under the heat lamps. Grizzli offers happy hour specials, good music, and excellent people watching. We decided to order a snack and the server convinced us to switch our order to the happy hour platter, which was fries, falafel, risotto bites, and cornflake chicken ‍. This platter of fried food was gross. The falafel was a mushy ball of batter, I was only able to identify it was falafel because it was listed as an item in the platter. The risotto ball was delicious. The fries were soggy and all broken little bits of fries, and the chicken felt twice fried over cooked and tough. Final thoughts, SKIP THIS PLACE or at the very least do not order food.

Excellent value for €19.50. A good pink. Poulet Basquaise - chicken thigh with sauce and rice. Good, but not great. Cassoulet Basque - Wow! White beans, sausage, chorizo, lardon, canard. Huge portion. So rich and brimming with flavor. Maybe the duck fat? Coffee, calvados + service - friendly (for a Frenchman) + no music + menu in French only - paper napkins - cheap Inox flatware - atmosphere - cool temp on a cold afternoon, minimal decoration €60.50 for lunch for 2

We had the fortune of meeting a friend here that has been going to the other branch for 40 years and he swears by its authenticity. We started off with Kir Royales which is the quintessential pre meal beverage. And then moved on to mains as appetizers are not necessary given the portions. Their cassoulet was incredible with real stick to your ribs appeal. However I feel the star of the show was their 5 diamond salade. Imagine a bed of greens supporting their duck fat potatoes fried crisp, topped with generous portions of lardons and chicken livers. All garnished with mini rounds of cheese on toast and a fried egg! What is not to like? The decor is classic diner, nothing fancy it it is all about the food. Service was friendly and not intrusive.

The quiche was great but the poorly dressed slaw went untouched. My coworker ordered pork for his main dish and was given a cut of beef. After telling the waiter, they told him the other dish he ordered was too small and this was the better dish. Huh? He doesn't eat beef, so it was kind of rude and comical to hear the server basically say "deal with it" and not try to correct the situation. I would say the food was a solid 2.5 to 3 stars depending on what you order, but the poor service and mistakes caused me to round the rating down. There are MUCH better places to eat in Paris that are also a much better deal.

The drinks were so French (tasty and inexpensive). The food was phenomenal. I know there are many places to eat in Paris and I don't go often enough to have tried many.

We got the daily 3-course lunch menu (note that it was only after noticing the French-language-only menu on a fellow diner's table--we otherwise weren't given the opportunity to order it).

Sadly, we didn't get the baked bread until the very end of our entree, but overall it was still a good experience. I'd gladly come back for the specials!
