After visiting the Notre-Dame Cathedral, we walked over here for some sweets. They have a variety of flavors to choose from, stuffed inside the cream puff and also with icing on top. I picked the citron (lemon) flavor and highly enjoyed it! The cream puff was filled with lemon flavor and was a light, yet satisfying dessert. You'll need to make sure to try cream puffs in Paris and Odette has some great ones. I regret only getting one cream puff! Bonus points for being convenient located, just steps away from the Notre-Dame Cathedral.

The waitress spoke great English and was working on some art sketches when we sat down (so Parisian). The praline pastry was by Jean Paul Hevin and was so effing good. It's exactly how I dream about French pastries and what I came to Paris for. So difficult to describe the contents because they use varying textures and heaviness of chocolate that blends together so beautifully. Coffee was great and the environment was inviting and clean. Decor was minimal and bright. Absolutely perfect place - like something I would design if I could design my perfect coffee shop. Amazing stuff.

Very cool spot! Just across the street from the Saint-sulpice church, it's easy to find. When you…read morewalk in it doesn't really seem like a place you can eat lunch...I'm still not sure what the set up was with the people on computers and telephones, but when we found the restaurant, it was obvious. (Walk in and make a right when you can. That will take you to the restaurant). The ladies didn't speak much English at all (not that we expect them to), but we managed just find. We went during Brunch on Saturday which includes a pot of the tea of the day (it was Jasmine for us--and it gets refilled if you finish it), orange juice, and multiple small dim sum dishes. I'm not going to remember everything, but I'll try! We started with a steamed bun and orange marmalade, then move to other filled steamed buns, then to a fungi salad, then to dumplings. There were some surprising flavors. But it was all very good, and it was a nice spot to relax...and for such a good price! It is not a huge restaurant which we appreciated, and the staff were attentive but not disruptive. They were happy to answer questions of those that spoke French which I found nice. Over all a very good experience!

I was so disgusted by the sight and the thought of eating pastries from the same case that I asked for a refund. The shopkeeper refused to give me a refund and insisted that their store has been inspected by the health department. Come on, there were flies crawling inside and outside the cake! No health department in their right mind would give their approval. If that cake was bad, it shouldn't be in the same display case as other goods that are being sold. Maybe that was a one-time incident, but they also should have taken care of an unhappy customer. I'm never going back to Paul again.

I made one and did not receive a confirmation email so there must have been a glitch in the system and it did not go through. However, we put our name down on a Saturday evening and only had to wait 20 minutes. The place is very small and charming- we set less than a foot away from another couple which made the experience more fun. We were greeted by a great server and he accommodated to our language- we ordered a glass of champagne and a beer then 6 escargot to start. It was fun diving into the culture as well as delicious. The meals were perfect size for us and had so much flavor! We dipped the potatoes from the beef with the ravioli cheese and it was the most delicious combination. I get the buzz about this place, we had such a lovely time as a traveling couple and would go again for the whole meal anymore!
