Amazing!  Was suggested this place while on our trip to Paris and I think the service made this place what it is today!  We visited end of September during Fashion Week and they treated us as if we were the celebrities in the area.

It's just minutes walk away from the Eiffel Tower and just close enough to experience the city and walk towards a great dinner

I tried the traditional French onion soup, the escargot and the Lamb dish and it was....for lack of words....chefs kiss!  The ambiance was great and we ended up coming back for lunch before leaving the city.  Highly recommended

It was a really "not bad" dining experience, but more towards so-so than towards wow. Four of us. We had a variety of plates: Sausage, shredded beef burger, duck and braised beef. Each dish was ok. Like home cooking really. I wasn't overwhelmed that the mashed potatoes were a box of flakes with water/milk/butter added. However, the fries and fried potatoes were really good. The service is French, as to say, not friendly nor attentive, but just around you enough to let you know you are bothering them. Would I go back. No. Was it terrible. No. It was just eehhh.

Our last meal in Paris before we headed back home could've been better. Sadly it wasn't meant to be.

A star for their setup, and a star for their friendliness, but everything else was average. Food took over 35-mins to arrive, and it was very mediocre. The Angus steak listed under their "Exceptional meats" section was the worst steak one can ever have. No seasoning whatsoever and the béarnaise sauce was exceptionally forgettable. The pasta with lobster was throughly enjoyed, but the kiddie pasta lacked butter.

The setup however was pretty good, away from all the touristy traffic (which is what actually got us here). Food can definitely be better.

Ana maxing place we stumbled upon. Beef Bourgogne was so delightful. My wife had scallops with a cream sauce. Duck foie grad was rich served with toast and fig jam! So so good... amazing wine selection

AMERICANS BEWARE!

Food was awful. Nearly everything was flavorless and if there was flavors... it was not good. We ordered the onion soup, skate, croque monsiuer, and angus steak. The steak was ordered medium rare and was served well done. The skate was all bones and the flavor was way off. The croque monsiuer was cold in the middle, cheese was not melted at all.

Service was fine, the staff is clearly working too many tables. I think I saw two servers for the entire restaurant. 

Ambiance is great... and maybe that's what got us in this case.

Food tasted like absolute ass cheeks, my Caesar salads dressing tasted like it was watered down ranch and cat piss. Also my soufflé had about 75 soggy carrots. DO NOT COME HERE!   DO NOT COME HERE!   DO NOT COME HERE!   DO NOT COME HERE!

As an American in Paris I had to have at least one cheese burger and friends, chocolate cake and cheese. 
Let's start with the burrata. The tomato confit with the creamy cheese was perfect. The cheeseburger was interesting. It needed alittle more salt. The cheese didn't add anything. The fries were a mix of crunchy and soggy but they hit the spot after drinking a lot of wine. The chocolate cake...was just ok. 
The service was great. I enjoy europe..no one bothers you a million times.
The only part I didn't enjoy was sitting next to a guy who was smoking. Sometimes I wish there was a way to divide that when you are sitting outside but I get it.
I would return!

We stumbled across this restaurant after watching the light show at the Eiffel Tower and it was one of the few places that were open Christmas Day so we chose to eat here on our first day in Paris. They had a fixed menu at 55 euros pp which included an app, main and dessert. The place is cozy with tables near one another and overall the service was nice. 

The food however was pretty mediocre. We started with complimentary bread and started with a truffle dip and scallops for apps. These were both pretty good and our favorites of the night. For entrees we got baked salmon with veggies and chicken casserole. Both were just ok and the chicken casserole came with a mushroom cream sauce that was pretty plain. For dessert we got fruit (really a fruit salad that wasn't very fresh) and chocolate cake. 

This spot is in a great area but I would say for food it's more of a tourist trap. If you have the time, it's best to eat elsewhere.

Fabulous first night in Paris experience!  Dato, our waiter, made our experience!  Be sure to ask for him!  We had soup, salmon and had to try the chocolate mousse!  Vraiment perfect!

I had a very nice meal here today. 
Staffs are nice and friendly, food are delicious prepared. 
I really think this place deserve at least 4 stars not just 3.5.
