Great place a few blocks off the Champs Elysees off a side street. Very quiet and I would call romantic ambiance. Food was amazing and while our original wine choice was not available, found a great alternative. Couldn't decide on dessert so we got two! Highly recommend this restaurant if are looking for something different and out of the way but also have a good selection of French and French twists menu items.

Food portion is extremely low, it’s expensive compare to the portion. Service is average, no butter for bread. Not a good dining experience for our first Paris dinner!

Looked for a restaurant a bit off the beaten track, this came out too on the search. What a lovely experience, everything was just great!!! The staff were wonderful, food delicious and a calm place to eat away from the city bustle.

What a beautiful and intimate restaurant. Our party of 4 all had the scallops with risotto. Fantastic! The service was wonderful especially since we spoke little French. The area is very walkable and it was easy to get a taxi from the taxi stand a block and a half away. We highly recommend.
