    Good food. Delicious coffee. Prompt and pleasant service. I had a few minutes to kill until the next leg of my tour of Paris started, so I stopped in for some refreshment. The guy behind the counter was smiling, welcoming, and very energetic. He answered all of my questions (en Anglais et Français... I think I heard him addressing guests in Spanish and Italian, as well) and he got my order to me in no time. I ordered a tuna, squash and fromage sandwich on focaccia which sounds random as hell, I know, but trust me... it was absolutely amazing. I nibbled on a tiramisu macaron while I waited for my sandwich. Unsurprisingly, it too was fantastic. The barista was equally swift and whipped up my cappuccino just in time for me to catch the next leg of my tour. It was rich and creamy and just hot enough for me to sip right away without incident. If I'd known it was going to be this good, I would have ordered a large. My only regret is that I did not have time to sit and savor my meal. So much city to see, so little time.

    Alright I'm giving this place one star based on two experiences. The first time I came here I was absolutely amazed. It was busy and they had 5 people working hard to get to orders out. a young male manager greeted us and helped guide us through coffee ordering. I got a cold brew and a weird little milk coffee almost ice cream type thing in a shot glass. Both were amazing! My friend said the yogurt he got was the best he had in his life, that was 5 stars. But on Saturday morning we went before our flight when they opened at 9am. We we're outside the door and spoke to a really nice french dude who was picking up coffee for work. The girl working by herself who opened the door looked miserable but when he talked to her she immediately perked up with him. He asked her what Cold brew was (in french) and in an extremely derogatory manner she spoke back to him saying "just cold coffee that Americans love". Really? I placed my order after saying by to the dude with my friend and she went cold right as she spoke to us. I ordered the same two drinks as before, a can of coffee, and gave her 50 euros. I hadn't used euros at all but she scanned the bill and gave me change back for my $16.70 euro order. She gave me $3.30 euros back instead or $33.30 back. I had no idea until I was giving my friend euros for the taxi and he said "that's 30 cents". While waiting for our flight a gal told us that it's common in France for them to do that to clueless tourists. So yeah, ef you rude french american hating thief barista.

    It was great to see an Illy bar here! Their lattes were just ok. I was expecting the coffee to be served in regular mugs but instead they served it in champagne flute looking glasses which was a small amount. Their WiFi sucks so good luck with that. Their service isn't as friendly either so that's another down side.

I'm not sure how much locals love this place but the food was great. I made a last minute reservation day of and was able to snag a table. It gets booked up, I ended up staying at the bar because my friend couldn't make it. The hostess was sweet and gave me the option between table or bar either way. I had 2 rounds of their passion fruit (pornstar) martini and it was perfect. Not too sweet. I had the carbonara, cacio e pepe hybrid pasta and I loved it! The flavor was there and I paired it with their salami plate. Next time, I'll come back to try the truffle pasta. I loved the decor. When you walk in, it says not a strip club ln the ground. They have plenty of seating arrangements but I came closer to when they were ending service.

The story goes that I and the rest of my Nintendo of America colleagues had just finished up a very exciting business conference with our friends over at Nintendo of Europe. After wrap up, we decided to take a small tour around the lovely city of Paris. I, of course, took note of all of the similarities between the real Paris and the version seen in the Mario Kart Tour mobile game. I have to say, Nintendo hits it out of the park once again. We then decided to stop inside the Gemini, since that seemed to be the only restaurant name that I could pronounce. I decided to order the Truffle Pizza, and since I am from New York, I love a good pizza. The first bite and it was already heaven on earth! Truly authentic French food being served at this wonderful establishment. I am also very glad that the waiters entertained my shenanigans when asking them what they thought about Mother 3. I had a good laugh after they didn't even know what I was talking about. Excellent service, great food, and an overall fantstic time for any Nintendo fan wanting to stop in and admire the beautiful jungles of France. Also, don't forget to check out Pikmin 4, which lands in stores July 21st. Thank you for reading this highly anticipated Reggie Review, and I will see you all another time, Switch fans!

Just finished a long bike ride to the Eiffel Tower and worked up an appetite. Decided to go straight to the main course. They are known for Au Gratins. My son is not a cheese fan so he opted for the norvigene (smoked salmon in dill lemon and EVOO. I decided to stick with the house specialty; Landais Au Gratin (cream potatoes, duck breast and emmental cheese). The 2 German girls beside me ordered a cider with both their meals so I followed their lead. When in Paris...... Considering the temperature, I almost second-guess myself and ordered something other than their house specialty of au gratin potatoes. In the end, I was very glad I overruled that thought. Brody enjoyed his meal. He just appeared to still be hungry when it was done and a 16 year-old boy that normally has a high caloric intake, I can understand why he wanted a second meal after eating his first! The restaurant in the patio were quite crowded even though we had reservations. They still sat us within five minutes of arrival. Not that five minutes is a long time to wait, but it was still worth the wait as good as the food tasted. We both enjoyed our meals.

    THE FOOD ------------------…read more= Fermier - Cheese gratin with chicken was good. Didn't blow me away, but was solid with the creaminess of the sliced potatoes and emmental cheese combined together with mixed vegetables. The cheese was very strong though, so anything else was unfortunately pretty much overpowered by it. Arrived with bread, but it DEFINITELY could use other carb options to sop it all up (e.g., rice???)! = Landais - Cheese gratin with duck. Same comment as the above, except the Landais had egg and goat cheese also mixed in with almost the same ingredients as the Fermier. THE SERVICE ----------------------- + The lone waitress, who also worked the role as greeter, cashier and bartender was friendly. + Food arrived within 10 minutes of ordering. THE SURROUNDINGS ------------------------------------ = Small, tight restaurant. = Not many tables inside - 6 in total. + Located a few blocks away from the more touristy restaurants, towards the East, on a much quieter street. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Nada.
