The food is well prepared and presented, delivered quickly. The venue is simple but cute and very conveniently located near the metro station. Very good value for money to have three courses for 30 euros!

Great dinner in a lovely neighborhood. This is a great spot for a real dinner in Paris. Not a tourist place. Food was excellent and the vibe was casual and welcoming.

Food was great and service was quick, helpful and congenial. Lemon tart with basil was delicious. Fish & ratatouille was pleasantly flavorful if a bit mild. Salade à L’essentiel was very tasteful with Asian influences. Pépite chocolate and caramel was less inspiring, sweet but nothing special. Only downside, even though we sat on the terrasse, not being smokers, we were around a few people smoking during dinner. We give a thumbs up for food and service for sure.
