Anthony, our professional waiter, knew the menu, did not hesitate to make recommendations, accommodated one of our slip ups in ordering and was fun. From what we saw, all of Anthony's colleagues seemed equally attentive without being intrusive. We expected to eat seafood, of course, but working with Anthony we ended up with the following orders which we enjoyed equally: oysters (taste the fresh ocean breeze), crabcake, wagyu dumplings (my least favorite), crab stuffed shrimp, beef fillet (like butter, perfect size), lamb chops (crispy outer tender middle, mm-mmm), and sea bass (perfect portion needed a touch of added salt for my taste). Finally, great atmosphere for fine dining: bustling but not loud and not worry our neighbors were ear hustling. I did not give 5 stars because I'm suspicious of perfect ratings no matter the subject. Thanks Anthony for a perfectly spaced dinner!

I had a typical steak frites dinner here one night with some great wine which was fine but it wasn't the food here that kept my attention, it was the people watching and the great staff. I got zero- Parisian attitude here but a real "bon vivant" vibe from the people who work here, from the servers to the bartenders to the cooks, people here seemed happy. Imagine a resto/brasserie full of characters that might have stepped out of a Wes Anderson or Jean-Pierre Jeunet film full of conviviality and joviality and you might get a reasonable facsimile of this place.

I have to say, when I imagine a local experience this is it! We were walking along side Canal St…read more Martin and saw this corner bistro with it's colorful menu drawn on chalkboard signs lining their sidewalks. The roars of laughter and buzzing conversation drew us in. I was oblivious to cultural habits, so I got really weird looks when I was asking for food. She said "no food." Huh? but it's 5:30pm, there's gotta be food. She then proceeded to explain that they don't start serving food until 7:00 pm and that now it was just time to drink. What? How fun! And that's why they're so fit/skinny. They control when food comes out. I LOVE that idea. We sat there, ordering local ales and beers and practiced our French as best we could, only to realize we were failing when we were suddenly being addressed in English. I'm sad we didn't get to taste the food, we had another appointment that day, so we left, but this place will forever hold a special place in my wannabe Parisian heart. If you're in the Quai De Jemappes area, this place is a must!

HIDDEN GEM! They…read morehave a nice mix of dining tables, bar stools, and lounging sofas, so there were dates, friends and families all dining together in close proximity. The food was served tapas style, and they have deals such as getting 5 (or 10!) plates at a discounted price. We ordered 5 for the two of us, but the tapas here are much larger than they are in the states, so we were STUFFED and didn't even finish three fourths of it! Well worth the money. Because it is a more authentic place, most waiters didn't speak English. They were helpful to the best of their ability, and I would highly suggest giving them a try even if you're not overly confident in your French!

Unfortunately, it was past 10 pm so a lot of places were closed. We were getting frantic trying to find a restaurant that was still open. We finally pinged this place on GoogleMaps. I have to say, this place is the definition of a hidden gem. It's a small French tapas place off on a side street that unless you were really searching, you would probably walk by it in favor of larger restaurants. I don't know if our waiter was also the owner or the sommelier, but either way, his English was limited. Luckily, my fiancee's sister speaks French so she was able to translate the menu (to an extent). As such, this was a tapas restaurant so everything was small plates and meant to be shared. I don't remember the exact name of everything we ordered, but I remember a Pad Thai, a beef dish, smoked salmon, octopus, and a fried dish (maybe calamari, but I don't remember). The food is excellent and packed with flavor. You'd be surprised how filling these little dishes can be. If you ever come to Paris, I recommend going off the beaten path for this little piece of heaven.

This restaurant is a pure delight! On holiday for a month in Paris, my husband and I stumbled onto…read morethis place by luck. Although we speak almost no French, we immediately felt welcomed like family. Our waiter is a joyful person, and his kindness and humor cannot be missed. It reminds me that human kindness and connection has nothing to do with language. That reminder alone, was worth the visit for me! The decor is very charming, unique, and homey, especially toward the rear half, away from the street. Bright cheerful colors, and cozy furniture arrangements. But now...THE FOOD. What a refreshing change from the standard fare. At home we eat mostly vegan, so it was exciting to find a vegetable stir fry and a veggie burger on the menu. I have had many veggie burgers in my day, and they are never anything to get too excited about, but this one was absolutely gourmet delicious! The mixed tapas plate was ALL good, with a wonderful variety of flavors and textures. The mousse chocolat was to die for. When we came back a few days later with my sister and her friend, we were remembered and once again felt genuinely welcomed. Do yourself a favor, and come enjoy this special place!

She told me everything there was so nice, it's the best in this area. So I made a reservation with them. For the food, I think actually it's ok but it does not worse the price. I spent 300 for me and a friend. We asked for juice and two steak(49 for each) and two starter ( caviar is about 120 and fish is about 20). I think it's not hard to find a better place than this one. So I was disappointed. After I checked out, the front desk girl ask me how was everything. I said it's ok,but I expect for better one like she said before I came. She kept to ask what's that mean, and gave me "you are so bitch" face. This is really piss me off!!!! I think I deserve better!!!! How could she do that to me!!!!!!!!! Worst experience ever have!!!!! How could you be mean to your customer like that!!!!Never go that restaurant
