The French onion soup was really thick with cheese at the top, perhaps a bit too much so. The carrot salad was really pleasant to eat and felt healthy. The burger had a nice flavor and texture to it; the bun was a bit sweet, and the fries were tasty, but not super crisp though crisp enough, and a bit salty. The leek tartine was a bit monolithic, the leek being too oily and the bread a bit flat. It was overpriced by about $6 or $7 in my opinion. Wish there was as little more going for it. The crepes were decent; the nutella crepe was particularly sweet. For dessert, the roulé au chocolat was top notch, with a freshly whipped cream accompanying a sturdy and flavorful chocolate roll cake. Music was good too! All in all a good way to spend time eating and having a bite with friends and family prior to a show.

Mom got adventurous and had the halibut which she enjoyed every bite with her eyes closed to enhance the flavours she described as phenomenal. I had, the only vegetarian (not vegan...as there is no vegan option on the menu) option, the Ukrainian dumplings... all I can say is WOW!!! The flavours from first bite to final notes were fresh, creamy and delicious!!! The prices were a little steep, and a little taken aback to have to pay for bread and butter, but even their home made focaccia was moist and crispy at the same time and the perfect tool to ensure all the sauce was where it belonged from our plates to our tummies! Our dinner was paired with a bottle of their cabsauv without any regrets. Make the reservation... your taste buds will thank you!!!

There are NO positives that can be said about this experience. The food was minimal for a high price ($140 for a few tiny sandwiches, scones which were completely overcooked and had to be sent back and resulted in a long wait for a replacement, a few savoury things which were tiny and tiny little desserts only four little tiny ones. In fact , basically the food was tasteless in most cases and extremely expensive for what we got. The staff member was not attentive, the café is not clean and certainly not the charming Place I expected to be. I would avoid this location at all costs.

The soup was rich and comforting and paired well with bread. The baguette came with some seasoned butter. It was a nice combination but I would have appreciated if they just went the extra step to make a compound butter. I was craving something a hearty and rich, so the croque monsieur was perfect for that. The burger was also good, but we asked for sauce on the side and it still came on the burger. Both entrees came with crispy thin cut fries which gave a great textual contrast. For the food quality, the prices are actually quite reasonable. 4/5 would happily return.

Enjoyed the agreeableness of the person 'minding the store' by himself when we told him of our situation. He right away told us sorry no pizza because the oven was in use baking their bread - unfortunate, but a good sign. We each ordered pasta and they were all three good, delivered with just enough time to eat half and pack the rest to go, which I enjoyed later. The restaurant itself is mid, in the sense that it isn't fancy and white tablecloth but better than Olive Garden in what they produce. The value was reasonable and the toasted bread that came with each entree was really top notch.

It seems they had just had a big event standing room only . I had the scollops as an app and Nookie with beef as a main. The scollops were very good the Nookie was great I like rich food and this was very rich. I did not try the drinks and will next time. Service was great now I was the only one in the Restaurant the whole time so how it goes when full I have no idea. Portions were good service was good nice place nice town . A good place to go as a couple or with friends . Price was very good for the quality and service and on a normal night I am sure they have tables and chairs already set up . I will go back parking is easy out front look it up on a map as it is not on the main drag in Paris but easy to find cross the bridge turn right turn right into the parking lot . A positive place to go for a nice dinner I was impressed . Great job guys. Garth

SCALLOPS AND PORK BELLY with miso-peanut sauce, chili crisp, cilantro and lime ~4/5. Good, the best dish of the night by far. Proteins were cooked well, and the dish was seasoned nicely. Nice texture and balance with the peanut sauce and chili crisp. BONE MARROW AND STEAK TARTARE housemade accompaniments and grilled bread - loaded $5 ~2/5. Bread was a bit stale, tartare did not taste fresh, and I did not like the marrow preparation. Ate less than half. SEAFOOD LINGUINI shrimp, scallops, mussles and lobster in a corn and n'duja cream sauce (pescatarian optional) ~2/5. Similar to the marrow and tartare, food did not taste fresh. Ate less than half.
