Our meals took too long to arrive and when they did , my partners burger was under cooked and the French fries were soggy .. probably the worst meal we have had in Paris .

The atmosphere is chic and the service fast. The portions are perfect. For the appetizer, we shared slice ham. I chose the grilled salmon for the main course with vegetables as the side.

I'd definitely come back to try other items on the menu!

Since there are so many restaurants called bistros in Paris, most places have a somewhat a snack…read moremenu like a plate of cheese. So, when it's in the afternoon, you either buy a sweet at the Boulanger or patiserrie place or snack on French fries or cheese plate and always with a glass of red wine. This place is in the corner of St. Bastille Boulevard Henry IV and rue de la Cerisaie (practicing spelling of my French words) so not quite on the main road full of people. I like it on the side streets because it is more quiet. Well, around 4pm we walked in with most three customers and then by 5:30pm a group of Parisienne maybe visiting area all walked in and then the sounds of espresso machines working and French speaking consumed the room. As we were finishing our cheese plate, the other customers also were finishing up and was taken aback by the noise. Overall, this bistro was comfortable and warm inside. The weather has been chilly but not as cold as in the east of United States.

Fresh ingredients, simple homemade dish from the original secret recipes. The Lavazza coffee is also one of the best I've had in a while. Spectacular wines as well. They open at noon. I came on a Saturday around 12:20pm and there was already a line though they do take reservations. The owners are extremely friendly and make sure you feel like home.

Wow, this place is so weird. This place should be a restaurant (absolutely delicious fresh Italian…read morefood!!!) and just focus on that but they try (very badly!!!) to be a bar (terrible cocktails, loud music, etc.) and it all kind of just fails. Some points were AMAZING whereas others just ruined it. Where to start? It's dimly lit, big comfy chairs and couches, and you can make large group reservations (-that's what led us here). Happy hour is until 10, and you can grab a pint of Heineken for 4.50 (other beers are not on HH, 6.8 each for grim, Blanche, or picon), or cocktails for 5€. STAY AWAY FROM THE COCKTAILS AT ALL COSTS!!!! We ended up trying a gin fizz, margarita, and caipirinha and all were extremely extremely terrible, to the point that they were nearly undrinkable. (And I am by no means a cocktail snob! My standards are generally pretty low, but yikes!) The wines were also not so great, at least the ones my friends and I tested. Judging by the drinks, I wasn't really feeling this place for food but you know how it is - a girl's gotta eat! I looked around and was like whoa - this stuff looks legit!!! The pizzas and pastas and antipasti others ordered were making my mouth water! As per what I read on the menu, all ingredients are freshly stocked from Italy. The cooks are Italian as well. Man oh man. None of that was a lie - I would definitely come back here again for the food. The antipasti platter we split was super legit, and the bread to accompany it was freshly cooked in the oven. Speaking of the oven, at one point, smoke from the oven started wafting up from downstairs where the kitchen is and it got so bad that they had to open all the doors lol. But I'll let that slide. This place was so odd tho. Every 20 minutes or so, the already blaring music (I mean literally you had to shout to hear the person right next to you) would be turned up. Turned up super super loud, to nightclub volume. Yet it was like 9pm and this was not a club - just ppl having dinner and drinks. As soon as the music went up, you had like 10 ppl simultaneously trying to grab the servers' attention, like turn it down! Geez. I left with a headache and my headache is still there this morning. Was it the music? Or the terrible drinks? (But I only had 2...)

Apparently, this is the price of "large" orange juices and coffees, as well as two plain croissants. Unsatisfied, we ordered a crepe, which arrived cold and runny.

We stumbled on this place returning to our temporary apartment while we are vacationing In Paris…read more It is on a small side street near the Place de Clichy. If you want to eat where locals eat, this is one of those places. It is small, with seating outside (remember, this is where the smokers will be!) and inside. The tables, about 6 inside, are closely packed, and don't be surprised if you get seated next to others at the 5-top tables inside. Service is efficient. We were there for lunch, and both the young waiter and the bartender spoke English. The menu, however, is purely French. At lunch, most of the selections are some kind of an open-faced sandwich, called tartines gourmandes (after 6 pm, it's a tapas menu). Both of our tartines were delicious. The tranche of bread was thin and toasted, and quite large. I had grilled eggplant, Spanish ham, roasted tomato and St Moret cheese for my toppings. My wife had a vegetarian tartine with eggplant, red bell pepper, tomato and artichoke, all grilled, with a light kind of EVOO dressing on top. Both were simply delicious and €6.90. Each tartine comes with a salad with very fresh greens. The tartine and salad are plenty of food to hold you for hours. We had a simple by-the-glass Bourgogne rouge that complemented the tartines. Actually, we each had two glasses! The place was filled with a mix of French people. Lots of workers came in for a quick espresso at the bar. A couple of older gentlemen spent the whole time we were there drinking wine and reading their newspapers. There was a couple and a group of friends, some banker looking types, so a real cross section of French society. What was not there, at least while we lunched, was anyone else like us who was obviously a tourist. We will definitely eat here again before we leave Paris. Oh. The menu is not particularly kid friendly. No fries. No burgers. So keep that in mind.
