The décor is calm and clean, imposing a sense of healthy serenity with the cute set-up and the large, gorgeous close-up paintings of vegetables. This time, I got a warm soup (ughhh I don't remember which one :() and it was also really good. I realized that they're open for dinner, so I'll definitely come swing by some time (or several times) for dinner. I don't know how to explain it, but I leave with a feeling of warm contentment and a satiated belly.

I love everything about this bistro. The food was superb. I'm not sure how they do it! As far as I…read morecould see, there were only two servers for the entire restaurant, and they are both so welcoming. My French is very bad, and when they told me, very genially: "Tonight is your training!", that reassured me that I was to feel at home. From aperitif and appetizer, through entrée and dessert, the evening was exemplary. What I love most? On my way out, as I paid for the wonderful meal, they told me: "You are welcome here anytime!"

If you are following, you know we did a "Field Trip" to Versailles. 86 degree weather with NO shade. I had to take two breaks, a wine break and a beer break, lol. Anyway, since I had a liquid lunch, I was hungry and craved steak. Cooked perfectly. I was worried that I was not going to finish, but I was still able to. Chicken Supreme - My wife's order which was (again) cooked perfectly. The chicken is so tender. I used the complimentary bread to soak up all the sauces from both dishes. And to wash all this down, I got a Domary IPA, Paris France, local beer. Ambiance - Good size. Indoor and outdoor seating. Service - 5 stars, the entire team was welcoming and accommodating. Price - 48 Euros, $56 US. I thought it was reasonably priced. Well the local beer was a little expensive, but I always try to support the locals. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success.

My food was delicious, and the chicken on the salad was cooked great. The cheese tray was good as well, and we enjoyed trying the three different styles offered. Overall, I would definitely eat lunch here again.

Pick some adjectives and go on a culinary ride! The dishes were both packed with flavor and beauty. The dynamism of flavor was off the charts. If you want to go and be surprised as you eat.

Small but comfortable thanks to red leather banquetes, a tiled floor beneath brass ceilings and walls full of art, it is from a paper ledger that reservations are confirmed prior to seating at wood tables that require being slid aside to gain access. A locals sort of place, though the menu does offer English translations, fans of Bistro fare will find all the staples complimented by daily specials while the Wine list runs long yet quite affordable. Well-suited to families, especially on Sundays when so few Parisian Restaurants are open all day, starters come in the form of Escargot or French Onion Soup plus sizable slabs of Foie Gras and the chunky sort of housemade Terrine one rarely encounters outside of France. Far more affordable than tourist favorites, its place in the 11th undoubtedly part of the reason, main plates see Confit Duck done well without any fuss while Pepper Steak and Sweetbreads in reduced Soy are generous in terms of portion and flavor. Not a spot to skip Dessert, all but Ice Cream made on site, Chez Paul's Baba is denser than Ducasse's but no less delicious while the Œufs à la neige and Tarte Tatin are each classics prepared the right way.

We came during the heat wave and beef tartare and the octopus dishes were not available because they apparently couldn't prepare them properly in this heat. Very surprised at this and perhaps a touch concerning? Complementary amuse bouche was nice featuring squash and it was chilled. Nice for a hot summer evening. Bread service featured two types of bread. Regular and multigrain. They provide a unique looking butter packaged like a bonbon. Had the special salad that featured tzatziki and tempura style shrimp with what looked like coleslaw. This was awful and overpriced. The tempura shrimp look like they came out of a box from Walmart. Oddly straight and all uniform sized. Coleslaw was mediocre. A rip of for €26 Also had the special cold fish dish. Perhaps it's not for me but I find it off putting. Creamy sauce with cold fish just didn't do it for me. Don't get me wrong, I like Japanese style food that features cold fish and kewpie or other mayos. This was not it. On the other hand, the table side carved roast lamb was fantastic and among one of the better lamb dishes I have had of late. Pricey but delicious. A must get. Service was tilted to the higher end but still tourist trap like. A good one time place. Get the lamb. Everything else is YMMV.

The food was overpriced for what we received, both in quality and presentation. The service was the worst part of the experience. After being seated, we waited a long time before anyone came to help us. Once we ordered, everything moved incredibly slowly, despite the restaurant not being busy when we visited. To make matters worse, our server got our order wrong and then responded with an attitude instead of apologizing. Because we had already waited so long, we just accepted the mistake. Another server opened our champagne bottle and spilled about a glass when it burst. The head waiter said he would credit us for one drink, but when the bill arrived, nothing had been adjusted. Instead, he asked if we still wanted the spilled glass. After spending over two hours there for lunch, we were completely done with the experience. We did speak with the manager, who apologized and gave us 10% off, which we appreciated. What started as what we hoped would be a great lunch ended in disappointment. I won't be returning unless the service and food quality improve significantly.

It's a bit on the sweeter side, but is so flavorful and fresh. The Pho noodles are a lot thicker than I am normally used to, but I thought they absorbed the broth flavor very well.
