    The escargot was perfect. We sat outside and enjoyed lots of wine and delicious food. I had the duck and it was perfect cooked.

    Both mains were delicious, very French, fat confit duck and rabbit with chèvre and mint. Huge puddings, great atmosphere and we had a lovely waitress. €80 pre tip for two mains, two puddings and wine.

    Stuff doesnt understand English or pretend like that as typical French behaviour. Beef was good, on the main cources the 3rd one from the top but quite spicy. Good and cosy restaurant, recommended.

    We went to Chez Paul on the foot of good recommendations but left €125 poorer and not happy with the food. Traditional and average is the best summary

    Super traditional French bistro. The setting is super nice as is the service, the cuisine is very good and not that expensive.

    LOVED this place. Escargots! Risotto crémeux et sa julienne de magrets fumés! The Confit de Canard made me SMILE. @daelevine's bœuf sauce béarnaise was "like steak-flavored butter." Great atmosphere. Read more

    A traditional French bistro in the Bastille area that still holds the 1940s charm when it first opened. Fantastic steak au poivre and foie gras!

    Menus are in French only. There is no risotto, and they seat tourists downstairs as the staff speak English. Try the beef tar tar. It's Devine !

    Confit de canard a bit greasy, boudin noir dish delicious but heavy, home-made macaroons very good.

    Col eski guzel bir restaurant fakat keyifle oturulmayacak kadar kucuk ve kalabalik masalar sallaniyor eti keserken yinede lezzetli bir kere gidilir.

    Difficile de trouver plus dans son jus que ce restaurant: tables bistrot, carreaux du métro dans une partie du restaurant, bar dans l'entrée. Restaurant traditionnel proche de la place de la Bastille
