A seasonal, changing menu with fresh ingredients, everything made in house. Four to five choices each for starter, main and dessert which will come in at 25-30€ for all three. Below average prices for drinks and wine. Appears to be run by a young Asian couple serving stunning French food with a fusion twist. A slightly dated and frayed decor is the only negative point. Generous portion of crevette/shrimp/scampi to start in a court-bouillon of vegetables and mushrooms with a hint of ginger. Stunning chicken with a creamy tandoori sauce ("supreme de voilaille") and the best gratin dauphinois I've ever had. A paradox of crispy yet soft and tender potato slices in cream and garlic. The complimentary baguette was so amazing I nearly finished off the second basket of it with the extra tandoori sauce. Closed with a perfectly crafted chocolate mousse with an ever so slightly salty caramel sauce, of course also homemade. The fact that I was here alone for most of my meal, even on a Tuesday, is almost criminal. Despite rave reviews here it seems word of mouth has somehow not yet spread. A shame I only found them on my last night in Paris. At a brisk twenty minute walk from the Arc du Triomphe I'd say this is worth the detour even if the neighbourhood has little to nothing else for tourists. For business travellers this could be a daily lunch or dinner option at these prices. I doubt you'll find this amazing value for money anywhere else in the area. Frankly they could charge twice this. Get in before Michelin does is my advice.

We managed to snag a table for two and had a wonderful mid-evening experience filled with delicious drinks and food. In addition to a few beers, we ordered an extravagant charcuterie board full of goodies - bread, crackers, cheese, cured meats, foie gras, you name it. It was the perfect happy hour in Paris and we loved it. We even had a chance to interact with the owner and he was absolutely welcoming and delightful. We'll for sure be back.

The menu has all the usual familiar Italian favorites but the best deals are to be had in the meal sets which include any entree plus a starter and/or dessert. The cheese and charcuterie board for one was enormous and tasty. Entree portions of spaghetti bolognese and sausage tagliatelle were also good though we decided that the bolognese sauce was cooked darker than we like and that the tagliatelle dish with its lighter tomato sauce base was the better of the two. We both ordered dessert. A warm (apple) tarte tatin on a thin crust for me, and one order (two cups) of chocolate mousse for my date. All were yummy. This is a nice spot. Quiet, efficient, clean, with a knowable menu that delivers. Give it a try the next time you're craving pasta.

Anyway - such a cozy restaurant and the owner could not be more friendly or attentive. Such a pleasure! We started with a great bottle of red wine that he suggested with a cheese and cured meat platter. Of course we were in heaven!! Next, my boyfriend ordered the salmon with linguine in a cream sauce. It was unreal!!! So so delicious. I ordered the sausage and fennel pasta in a red sauce which was also fantastic. We ended up sharing both dishes. Bonus: there was so much food we were both able to take ours to go and had another meal of it alone. For dessert we shared the tiramisu and creme brulee which were also yummy! This all came out to 60 euros; great deal!! Love this place.
