9/10Excellent atmosphere and service, great food and enormous wine selection, you choose from the shelves behind you, each French region is represented. Relaxing to be presented with a fixed price four course meal without menus so you can enjoy your companions company without waiting to order. . The soup is presented in a big bowl and dinner in a copper pan, you help yourself, it's a charming way to eat. Service was so unobtrusive, I didn't even realise bread basket and water carafe were filled again. A truly lovely restaurant.

10/10Lunch fixed menu, no choice but you'd be guaranteed good, regional dishes. The veloute broccoli was excellent and the navarin of lamb with good honest vegetables just melted in your mouth. It's Ok to have just 2 courses, as I did. Lunch for 2 with 50cl carafe Ventou wine was 86€ which, given the attention to detail, the friendliness of the owner and the lovely, cosy bistro interior is very good value.

10/10For lunch there is a set menu with no choices. Fortunately the food was excellent, traditional French fare made with exquisite care. The service was friendly and reasonably efficient. The place is a small bistro that is also a wine shop, with a correspondingly excellent wine selection. Highly recommended!!

8/10The food was good and the portions were great. We were very full. The meal took almost two hours. Often times we were finished with a course for quite sometime before they brought the next. It was a nice experience but a bit expensive for what you get.

9/10The meal was one of the best we enjoyed on our trip to Paris, and was beautifully prepared and presented. It great fun to not know what we'd be served until arrival, and the wine list is impressive. Marked down ambience because this otherwise lovrky restaurant was so stifling hot that I needed to step outside to recover.

6/10So very disappointed especially after reading all the good reviews. The food was bland and tasteless. Most of the customers were English speakers (tourists) so this restaurant can stay in business with a continuous stream of customers. I think there must be a lot of fake 5 star reviews.

10/10Everything was perfect! The food, the ambiance and the service! I was just surprised and a bit disappointed that the format has completely changed and I noticed the slow transition of this since the Allain Ducasse bought it (along with other restaurants in Paris). Thankfull, the quenelle was in the menu but not my favorite oeuf meurette.
