    Lively & charming spot near Bastille/Marais. Service shines as the trio of servers manage the bustling room. The calamari entree was delicious! Everything tasty throughout. Nice value. Will return.

    Book a table? Call the restaurant as booking online does not work... We were lucky, we got 1 table for 2! Great staff and suggestions for the "plat du jour"! Good taste of the mussel-clams casserole, lamchops were a bit overcooked, taglio + scallops were excellent. To recommend!

    Very nice restaurante, looked cosy inside, but this warm evening we sat outside along the street. Relaxed athmosphere, alot of people. The meat was very tender and excellent prepared and the ham and trufflepasta was creamy and tasty. The staff were funny and helpful, but as the restaurante was crowded we had to wait a bit. Thanks for the limocello we’ll come again!

    Favorite spot when in Paris and when the weather is good for outdoor seating. Dish of the day is always a good choice. It’s often full of locals, which is nice.

    The staff accommodated my sister’s request for something not on their menu for her dietary restrictions. The food was delicious and huge portions,

    LOVED this restaurant! Wish we lived in Paris - would be a regular hang out for us. We love the sister restaurant Le Petite Marche which we visit on every trip to Paris. Can't believe we didn't know about this place before. SO delicious. Not 'typical' Italian dishes you see on every menu. BUT authentic - not nouveau...just inventive and delicious.

    Disappointed as had been before and we really liked it. Couldn’t get the order right and then overcharged for the dish we did have. When pointed this out he refunded 2 euros instead of 6 euros which didn’t leave a good taste.

    I’ve been coming here since 2014 and have never been disappointed. I’m always bringing friends here to try it. The burrata is spectacular, the grilled calamari is great (especially the sauce), and the pasta remains some of the best I’ve ever had, including in Italy. Thank you for another wonderful night.

    Nice atmosphere and great service but the dishes were too expansive for the quality in my opinion and the food arrive extremely fast which didn’t let us the time to enjoy and relax.

    Unfortunately not as good as it used to be. Pasta was not handmade. Food came out in 5 minutes (questionable). Service was less than desirable.

    We were unfamliar with this type of menu but all our questions were easily answered. Portions were so generous we would have been full with just a main course. We each had a starter, the supions in a spicy sauce and the bruschetta, followed by the sea bass and the seafood risotto. The best restaurant food we have had in a long time. cannot recommend it too highly. Best Wishes...

    Just a little gem! Got one of the best pasta dishes in my life (the one with truffle!) - and you should definitely also treat yourself with their lemon meringue pie, its to die for! Friendly staff, lots of locals - a Paris favourite of mine!

    The tortellini with asparagus and cream sauce was amazing. This is my second time to this quaint and awesome restaurant. I didn't have room for the awesome lemon tiramisu I had the first time. Staff is also friendly and charming.

    excellent rapport quality/ price. We were disappointed that we could not have a table on the terrace that we had reserved . All the tables were taken. It was first come, first served and we were not informed by " la fourchette" or the restaurant.

    We have been living in Paris for 3 months and been to many of the restaurants in the Marais- Bastille area. This rates among the top 5. Great ambience, good hearty food, and attentive service. Very enjoyable place to bring friends or just your partner.
