We have been here several times... as a couple, as a family, with friends and as a big party of 8. The value is great. The menu is diverse and yet still authentic. The service is fun, and yet still very Paris. Yes it is in a busy tourist area, but our view is you cannot go wrong here. We have had duck, steak, tar tar, seafood platters, and salads at different times - and all have been great.We'll be back again and again.
We really enjoyed our dinner there… good foir grois, delicious dishes, friendly, helpful curly waitress …We will come back

Found after 50 years. Then ruinous (See my drawing), now again a great restaurant seafood special and lovely honyed duck.
Excellent authentic Parisian food! The duck was amazing and the tartar de boeuf as well. One of the best duck breast I’ve ever had. The fries are on the spot as well, very good seasoning. The service was excellent, very nice atmosphere, and very good wine selection & prices.
We found this place last minute and it was the best restaurant we went to in Paris. Amazing food, great vegetarian options, and all servers were really nice! Special mention is the amazing server Nas. Thank you very much for making our last night in Paris the best.
Charming place on a great street for food and people watching. Very much enjoyed the chicken risotto which was a special on the night.
Came here with friends for a quick bite and we weren't disappointed. Very French order with snails and roasted camembert with white wine and panaché. All was up to best French bistrot standards and service was particularly helpful and nice. Recommended also for a touch of an historic location!
