Truly a happy place. Amazing food, great diversity and a strong wine list. Laid back and unpretentious setting. We had 7 dishes and 5 glasses of wine, it was only €90 - I highly recommend.

Pretty simple venue but excellent food, tapas style. Must have: beef tongue pastrami, and olive oil chocolate ganache. Be sure to book, or come late. They serve until around midnight on weekends.

Daily changing menu, ask host for recs. Our fav of the night was a zucchini salad (super complex, flavorful and creative) and the pigeon!

The draw here is the menu of small plates that are highly ambitious yet reasonably priced. Try the octopus massaged with salt and grated turnip. Read more

Most memorable meal of my Paris trip. A hidden gem- servers are used to catering to English speakers. Wonderful flavor combinations- no bad dishes. Coquelet was so so good & others as well. Must try!

A french tapas restaurant. Every dish we had was great and the place is very casual. All dishes cost between EUR 7-9. It is worthy of the high ratings.

A plethora of small plates written on the chalboard menu. Go early and sit alone at the bar and partake, or get a big table with friends and order the liters of killer bio wine.

Small plates to share, about 7-10 € each. Large wine menu. Everything tasted incredible, and the service was great. Featured in new york times and food network

French bistronomic tapas restaurant. Great wines and food. Gigot d'agneau ++ saint Jacques to die for! Nice velouté. Specials are quickly sold out, so do not hesitate too much ;-)

From BA: for the former Spring chef’s unbeatable 3-course, 18-euro lunch of market-driven cuisine, its Thierry Breton bread and edgy graphics. 1 bis passage Saint-Sebastien (11th); +33-1-43-55-07-52

It’s small plates, which we love. We had amazing mackerel, octopus, sweetbreads. Everything was delicious!

The local restaurant you can not miss if you are in the neighborhood. Whichever dish you go for, you will most probably end up smiling and licking your lips. Exhaustive and attractive wine list. Read more

Come here before 22 to have a better chance to find a table.The service is very good,the food is very fresh but experimental: some combinations and tastes are very weird if you are used to classical

Make a reservation beforehand. It's worth it. Menu changes every day. The oysters, artichoke soup with foie gras, and the mackerel were perfect.
Marthe SeguinAugust 23, 2012
I'd suggest for 5 plates for 3. The tuna with radish, the veal, the burrata are excellent. The next time I'll try duck magret and some oysters. Slow service, reservation needed. Charming spot.
Kari WilsonFebruary 25, 2013
Great affordable haut-dining in the Brooklyn style that is trendy in Paris now. Menu changes daily, but beef tongue and leeks were fantastic. Highly recommended.
Cynthia GunawanAugust 10, 2014
waited for almost 2 hrs in au passage. sadly most of the things on the menu were sold out. serving tapas style food. very good chocolate dessert
Vic McGinAugust 15, 2017
Go! Make a booking for dinner, or turn up after 9:30 to get a walk in table. The wait will be worth it, I assure you.

Excellent french style porciones. Pay attention to the bill, they may suggest offering u drinks while waiting then simply put them on your bill! Wine is pretty expensive.
MichaelNovember 18, 2015
The wine was amazing. We had mushrooms, trout, duck, cheeses. All were great. The vibe is casual and laid back.
Sven GabrielApril 15, 2017
Friendly staff. The lamb was too fried unfortunately. The curry was with fish tongue was great.
Chris BruertonSeptember 13, 2011
The sharing plates are unbelievable, great range of wine, one of the best and affordable dining experiences of my life! Fine-dining not only for the rich...

Gin tonic, food, wine
Laurens BianchiOctober 31, 2014
They offer a Variety of wines, but food is not that special, just a regular bite. Atmosphere is not that great as well.
YSAugust 10, 2017
Overrated, very touristy. Eggplant, smoked mackerel, and John Dory all avoidable. Beef and onion tart very good. Wouldn't go out of my way to eat here unfortunately.
DanielOctober 5, 2014
Relaxed, tasty food and inexpensive
dianuhhOctober 15, 2016
a back alley gem! great date night spot
Apostolos MamopoulosOctober 29, 2022
Overpriced, the steak was almost impossible to chew or swallow and the portions were too small for what you paid for it. I wouldn’t recommend it
Paul van DijkMarch 6, 2014
Very reasonable priced, great food!
Sally CedarNovember 4, 2015
