We had the fortune of meeting a friend here that has been going to the other branch for 40 years and he swears by its authenticity. We started off with Kir Royales which is the quintessential pre meal beverage. And then moved on to mains as appetizers are not necessary given the portions. Their cassoulet was incredible with real stick to your ribs appeal. However I feel the star of the show was their 5 diamond salade. Imagine a bed of greens supporting their duck fat potatoes fried crisp, topped with generous portions of lardons and chicken livers. All garnished with mini rounds of cheese on toast and a fried egg! What is not to like? The decor is classic diner, nothing fancy it it is all about the food. Service was friendly and not intrusive.

Good list of wines and spirits, with wine by the glass still reasonable (€7). I had oxtail terrine as a starter - it was delicious, literally cleaned the plate. Veal liver with mushrooms was outstanding - real wild mushrooms (for those of us visiting from the US, it is a big deal), liver itself perfectly cooked as requested and perfectly seasoned. I like how side dishes are served in the little cups, without clobbering your plate. Had some Basque cake as a desert - that was not my favorite, but that's okay. Excellent service, prompt, friendly, attentive. Definitely recommended. Also reservations are highly recommended.

The skin was crispy the meat was moist - the flavor was superb. It was so good, my sister was gnawing on the bone. We also ordered a salad and came with generous prawns and the goat cheese filled phyllo dough crisp on top, we also ordered scallops with crab stuffed peppers. Everything came out all at once and we were pretty excited to dig in. Make sure you reserve lots of time to just enjoy wine and conversation bc this place gets busy but you know the food is being cooked up to perfection. With two glasses of wine, coke, and three dishes our bill came out to about $85, which is a great deal considering we were quite stuffed. We also ate at instragramable venues: Girafe, Kong, and Cafe de Flore...and this place, off the beaten path, was THEE Best! Recommend you download Google translator to understand the menu.

It's a small restaurant, but they seemed to fit a good amount of people in there. By 8:30pm, the restaurant was packed. All of the menu items are written on chalkboards that they carry around from table to table. Like previous reviews mentioned, the menu is in French. Be sure to ask for recommendations from the waiters or use Google translate to translate the menu. I ordered the Boudin Noir, which is a type of pork/sausage that you can only get in France. It was a very tender meat and extremely savory. It was well balanced with the mashed potatoes it was served with. The mashed potatoes were also done really well. It was super soft and fluffy. My wife ordered the grilled cod and veggies. She loves fish and was not disappointed by this. The service could have been a little better in my opinion. We were here for over 2 hours and the waitstaff were not as kind as we were expecting. All in all, the food was phenomenal and the price wasn't bad at all. I would definitely return to try other items on their menu.

When the waiter noticed our confusion asked if we wanted the menu in English. We agreed so menus were changed. We ordered the cote de boeuf (steak) for two and I had an order of escargots (snails). The snails were cooked in butter and garlic sauce. They were tender and garlicky. I used the bread to soak up the sauce. The steak for two was huge! It also came with a salad and potatoes. For 54 euros it was a bargain. It was not the most tender cut of meat and some parts really gave your mouth a workout but there was a lot of food and it was filling.

I happened across this place near my hotel and noticed a large salad being served in a silver bowl and decided to give it a try. When we got there it was about 9 pm on a Monday but the place was still packed. There was only one guy serving/cleaning the tables, and one female blonde bartender helping to serve as well. We were seated quickly (by European standards) and ordered the salads. My other half had one with prosciutto, fried egg and cancel cheese, while I went for the pork belly. Both salads were very savoury, and not a typical North American salad. In addition to the toppings, there was no croutons but in lieu of this there was fried potato medallions. Overall very tasty and recommended. On top of this, both the server and bartender were kind enough to apologize for the wait (first time in Paris!!) And the bartender was nice enough to give us two beers on the house (St Omer) - Very tasty bonus!
