10/10Very nice place. Typical french home-made dishes with a suggestion from the boss. It's a family business, so very thing is done with heart

10/10Our first meal on our trip to Paris over the Christmas/New Years holidays was exceptional. We were so happy with every bit of our experience: the cordial greeting and professional service, the quality of the food, and the relaxing ambiance of this small gem of a restaurant. A friend who lives in Paris recently ate here and recommended it to us, and we are grateful that she did so. I had the scallops and shrimp with mushrooms starter - delicious! We both had the 4-hour cooked lamb shank accompanied by the potatoes dauphinoise and a fresh green salad. I had not expected to have dessert but could not resist, so we both indulged and were very pleased. We did not leave one bit of food behind. The wine list was small, but we found it easy to make a selection and were very happy with the wine we chose. We can highly recommend this charming restaurant to others looking for an authentic French dining experience with excellent value for the money. Unfortunately the cassoulet was not on the menu during this trip, but it should return once the holidays are over, and that will provide us an additional excuse to return.

8/10This restaurant has delicious food, and a friendly, gracious host. The only thing I think they need to improve is the atmosphere. The place is lit up like an office space.

10/10Such a nice spot! Very pleasant background music, quiet, excellent food and service. Nice to find a restaurant where they serve what is in season and not just a set tourist menu

10/10We three women were visiting Paris from Australia and so arrived for dinner before anybody else did (7pm). This lovely restaurant is run by a husband and wife team who welcomed us very warmly. It's obvious that they both take great pride and pleasure in presenting a delicious seasonal menu that changes with availability of quality produce. When our French was lacking, he was happy to describe the choices for us. He is also endearingly proud of his wonderful wife the chef. The food was amazing! Simple dishes were raised to the stars! We would love to return one day.

10/10We ended up here based upon other reviews and so glad that we did. Casual atmosphere inside and the food was delicious. Prices on both food and wine/ beer are excellent. On a holiday night so it was a bit less busy than usual and the owner could have not have been nicer. He had time to talk to us a bit and we really enjoyed the experience. His wife who does all of the cooking also stopped by to say Hi. He took time with us to explain every item on the chalkboard menu and gave us his opinion on what he thought we would like best. Had the wine from his hometown and the suggested beer was excellent. For desert had a hard time choosing so got the 3 desert sampler and what a great way to end a wonderful meal and experience. We were taking a picture of the outside after dinner and the owner surprised us with a pose in the doorway that just made our night!

10/10Delicious, unfussy food and good wine at reasonable prices, served by the very friendly owner. Wish this "neighborhood bistro" were in my home neighborhood!

9.5/10I choose to eat here based on the great online reviews and the fact it was just a 15 minute walk from my hotel. I was blown away by this restaurant. The husband and wife run everything. They are the sole employees and work 6-7 days per week, all day, 48 weeks per year. Their dedication is tremendous. The food quality is fantastic, above any cafe I've visited in Paris in the last two weeks. They go out of their way to source meat from free range sources. They are so friendly. Also, the markup of the wine list, mainly sourced from the Languedoc region, is only 30%. In the USA it would be 150%! I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Come casual, as it is not a fussy atmosphere. You won't regret it.
