    The food was good, and the ambience was nice and traditional French cafe. The presentation of the dishes could be improved but the flavours were decent. Overall good value for money considering the central location.

    Our family had a wonderful dinner of duck confit and lamb shank. My husband declared it was the best meal he has had in Paris!

    Truly the best confit de canard of the entire trip! If you want to eat where the French eat-this is the place! Absolutely lovely woman who took care of us the night we were there!

    Very very basic restaurant. All a bit dirty, shabby chairs. Food is as i would Cook at home, nothing special yet not terrible. Waiter was friendly

    Small place. Very great atmosphere with only a few people running the place. Great food. Reasonable price for the entree-plat-dessert menu. Our server was very nice and patient with my intermediate French. He wrote down French words for us on paper when I asked how to say something. Definitely would recommend.

    Great, busy little resto. We had confit, de canard, lamb shank and Cesar salade. All were very good. There was only 1 server working & he was rushed off his feet, bless him! But he still delivered warm service & kept his smile! We would definitely return here.

    This little french restaurant is really cute, I loved the drawings of the neighborhood on the walls, the simple yet cozy decoration and mostly the staff was lovely and always making sure everything was alright. The food is very good and traditional, definitely recommend.

    We were lucky to find this restaurant near our place in Paris. Nothing fancy, but very good traditional dishes, and a great value. Will be back for sure.

    Cosy traditional French bistro serving delicious French dishes. Friendly helpful waiter. Not very busy when we were there due to lack of outside seating but are running a campaign to restore this. A little gem!

    They didn’t get the reservation so it took some time to set up a table. Service is friendly but not very pro. Decor is a fun pseudo-vintage. On the other hand food is very good

    Lovely little restaurant with a nice traditional feel and excellent food. Unfortunately, a large group made it very noisy and not enough ventilation in this hot summer period (hopefully they will get the right to have their terrasse back).

    A very nice French Bistro restaurant in a beaitiful nice and lively student area. The roquefort with poched eggs was great and you should definatly take the creme brulee with raspberries for dessert. Going to the toilet is an experience.

    Based on previous comments we were looking forward to our evening. The service was great I must say, the waitress was very friendly and very helpful. The food was fine however it was not special and for that reason and because of the price which were on the high side, I give a lower mark.

    Don't expect good service if you don't speak French. The food was not great, but maybe it wasn't too my taste. But even the fries were not that good, some were burned and other undercooked. No English menu and took a long time to get the food. The restaurant itself was very nice though

    Unbelievably delicious meal. This is the second time we've eaten here, and it was even better than last time. The lamb shank was perfectly cooked, and we also tried a duck dish, which if I had understood the description in French, I probably wouldn't have ordered. It was surprisingly great, though. The service was also very friendly, which in Paris is quite rare.
