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.

What's the point of having a sign if you're just going to open at whichever hour you felt like today. Sad because I planned to visit this place during a short stay and now wouldn't be able to squeeze in.

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 were craving seafood after many brasserie (meat forward) suppers this week. We made a…read morereservation on the fly at L'îlot and were rewarded handsomely. 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!

Starters husband had oysters, €18 he loved them I had calamari grilled with onions in olive oil, €16 they were great. Next came the tomato salad €8, a fill plate of sliced tomato, lettuce in middle, light vinaigrette over it. I had Dos Morue, Cod with mashed potatoes that had chorizo in it. Freshest cid ever. He had Mussels, Moules Mariniere, more than he could eat. Each had 1/2 bottle of wine - good list. Best secret place around. Server was Rudolphe, the best. Suggested the mains for us & he was right on.

Few seats - reservations for dinner are advised but you can also have take-away, which I will definitely be getting once the temperatures allow for eating outside again. Prices for drinks are really cheap and the food is really good value for money. Very casual & basic, the emphasis here isn´t so much on service but on simple, tasty food. Meaning you pour your own drinks from the can and so on.
