I came back to this restaurant having had a wonderful meal about 3 years earlier. It was fine this time but not wonderful. We both had the veal which was good and the creme brulee desert was tasty. The cheese platter was very ordinary. The service was good but a little slow sometimes. The atmosphere is very nice and it's... More

The restaurant was a recommendation from our hotel. It was a sunday evening and we were late for dinner so the restaurant was quite empty. We had a menue for 23 Eur (maincourse&dessert) and a bottle of cote du rhone for about 24 eur. That is totally fine. I loved the day's special (lamb chop topped mit fresh goat cheese)... More

This restaurant was recommended by our hotel in Paris, and we loved both its location, tucked away on a side street in the area of the Sorbonne / Quartier Latin, and its old-world bistro-like decor and atmosphere. The restaurant is much larger than one would expect based on its small entrance area, featuring multiple dining rooms with quirky furniture and... More

Went for dinner based upon TripAdvisor recommendation and we were not disappointed. Located on a small, quiet street not far from Blvd. St. Germain and Rue des Ecoles and is what we expected from a neighborhood restaurant in the Latin Quarter. The menu was small and all prix fixed items. However, neither of us had a problem selecting a well-prepared... More

I'm a total foodie and was recommended this place by a friend and had it on my list of restaurants to seek out whilst in Paris. It is a unique, quirky little place with mismatched decor from modern and vintage ears and is tucked away at the end of a little alleyway which adds to the charm. The food was... More

This red fronted restaurant is tucked away at the end of the Rue de Lanneau - a bit of a walk past Sorbonne buildings.I can't fault the food. My "snail pie" was stunning and the "Coin Coin" - duck just exceptional. It was as excellent as it was six years ago BUT the attention of staff was distinctly lacking. After... More

I make a point of eating here once each time I'm in Paris. Food is excellent. Menu is different each time but always I am surprised at the wonderful favors. On a hidden side street not easy to find but worth the try. Wait staff is friendly and helpful. Atmosphere is charming. A Paris gem.

We loved the atmosphere and the service, but the food was the star. Everything was delicious but if they have the crispy apple tart, do NOT leave without trying it paired with a cognac or calvados.
