This place was crazy good. The waiters knew limited French, but they were very helpful. We ordered…read morethe escargot, which came in a dish, without the shells. It was covered with a creamy cheesy sauce. There was very little garlic to compete with the snails. We also chose the buffalo mozzarella and tomato appetizer. The cheese was sweet and creamy and the pesto oil was sweet and wonderful. Then for the main course, my husband chose the duck. It was crisp and juicy with delicious fried potatoes. I ordered the escallop du veau, veal. When it came out it was this bubbly cheesy crock. Hidden below the cheese was a large piece of fried veal, which could have been cooked a little less, soft wonderful chunks of potato, a wonderful broth and more cheese. I could barely eat half, but the people around me didn't seem to have a problem finishing it.

I've never been disappointed with what ever I've ordered and the service is always great. In the winter the exterior is covered and heated so eating al fresco is not a problem any time of the year. My tip would be have a go at your French and enjoy the ambiance along with the excellent food and wine!

There should be more reviews on this restaurant!! I think this was both my boyfriend's and my…read morefavorite restaurant for our France trip (and that includes Paris). This place was so delicious and reasonably priced (between 13-16 each meal). I had the baked seafood (papillote du pecheur), and my boyfriend the beef and brie tartine (parisienne). The baked seafood (prawns, salmon, another white fish, vegetables) was light, and yet the sauce was creamy and flavorful. The tartine... I'm sort of glad I didn't get that because I would've eaten the whole thing! The cheese was crispy on top and soft and rich beneath, and the bread... oh the bread... The portions are generous - especially the tartines - so come with an appetite! The chef was very friendly and explained the menu, and I loved the atmosphere as well. I would highly recommend a visit - I will definitely be back if I'm ever in Orleans again! Love!
