Customer Reviews
We had the tasting / surprise menu and were disappointed with the meal for three reasons: 1) Ambiance. They played relaxing music in the dining room but dance music in the kitchen. It was not relaxing to hear the two kinds of music overlapping simultaneously. 2) Each savoury dish was beautifully presented but over seasoned. Possibly they overdid the lemon or lime juice. Usually I love citrus flavours but this was not to my taste. The dessert was fine. 3) I found it overpriced for what it is.
Atmospheric contempory French restaurant, menu has nice ideas, food was decent but I wasn’t impressed. Service is excellent. We went for the a la carte menu but I’d suggest to choose the chef’s tasting menu, sounds more structured than getting different dishes to share.
Amazing food, wine and service. We used the Michelin guide for choosing our restaurants in Paris and this was the exception. This restaurant should be in the guide and some of the others not.
First, the staff was very friendly with our waitress speaking English. Second, the spritz was very well made. Third, a limited menu but great presentation and was delicious. Would definitely recommend if you’re in the Latin quarter.
