This was my first time at this restaurant and I'm a little skeptical of organic, sustainable fare, but I ordered the Pork Ribs and they were out of this world. They were so juicy and flavorful. The mashed sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts gave just the right balance to sweet, tanginess of the pork. It was beautifully presented with the sweet potatoes serving as a bed and sprinkled lightly with cinnamon. I started with the pumpkin soup which was the perfect starter in a cold day. My friends enjoyed the Daahl which they enjoyed immensely. There is also a great selection of organic wines which also surprised me. Leave room for dessert as the tiramisu was outstanding. It was not too sweet or heavy just delicious.
The waitstaff was very friendly and attentive. They were also kind about speaking English when I didn't understand an item. Super attentive and the restaurant owner greeted us when we arrived, check on us at each course and made sure we were satisfied at the end. It feels like a neighborhood place with a globally inspired menu. The food is so good. You'll forget it's healthy and organic! The ambiance was lively but still quiet enough to enjoy our conversation easily. There's a great energy with the patrons and staff. I've been to a lot of restaurants in Paris but few have an authentic neighborhood feel. Yuman does.
If you're in Paris, I highly recommend you head to Yuman. It's super convenient--only about 300 feet from the Bibliothèque François Mitterand métro. read more
