Very close to our hotel, so we thought we would give it a try. The service was not up to par, but the food was very good. Nice cool weather - it was great to sit outside and enjoy the scenery. I had the filet mignon - a little chewy but manageable and the gravy a perfect topping to add. The dessert was the "icing on the cake." Apples were hot and fresh then to add a scoop of ice cream - was perfect. Would definitely go again.

Friendly staff, great French onion soup and cheese charcuterie! Went here twice while in Paris and would recommend!

Had a lovely lunch at this restaurant. The staff were friendly and attentive. Loved the ambiance and decor of the place. My salmon was prepared perfectly and I loved the creamed spinach side. 

Would happily eat here again.  In fact for dinner stopped by and ordered one of their pizzas to take back to my hotel room right across the street.

We have eaten here twice on our Paris trip. The best frogs legs I've ever had. Both times, not that we have had any bad meals here, but our the best meals in Paris. Crème Brûlée here was beyond amazing! Great service, great ambiance!

Food was great!  Service was fine and they were nice.  Only thing I take issue with is "Rémy" running around the restaurant.

Very solid French Brasserie food. This a good lunch spot if you want to eat something very french and have a glass of wine and coffee, especially if you're looking to dine outside. The food is classically french with very little flexibility and the wines are all very french as well. Everything about it (except the waiters who seem to be Indian) screams that this is french.

The overall vibe seems to be business people and folks from the nearby consultates or government buildings coming to eat work lunches. There seemed to be very few families eating when I was there. The vibe definitely matches what you would expect in the 16th.

I had a salad and some steak tartare which was really solid. They brought excellent mustard without me even asking and the bread was very good. I had a lovely Rhone valley red to accompany the food that also made me super excited to be eating there!

I'm not dying to go back, but I'll go back if I'm looking for lunch in the neighborhood!

We have now eaten here twice. Once for a delicious lunch and tonight for dinner.  For lunch we had a pizza that was wonderful plus shared a salad.  Service is good, even to us Americans .  

Tonight I had the escargot which was quite good. Hubby had the French onion soup and a Cesar salad.  I had the salmon.  Everything was perfect plus they had my favorite wine from the Alsace region!  I was so happy!  Service was excellent.  This little place is a great find in the 16th.

Walking back to the hotel and ran across this small cafe.  Wanted to try authentic Parisian cafe food so we decided to try the restaurant. Outdoor seating but it was November and headed indoors.  Wife ordered steak frites.  I wanted to try the French Onion soup and beef bourguignon.  Tried the wine special a red from Bordeaux, Chateau Cadet Medoc blend.   Wine was better than average.  The onion soup was splendid, perfect for a cold day well seasoned with plenty of gooey cheese.  The beef bourguignon was delicious.  Two large potatoes lying across the top of the stew.  Served in a cast iron pot.  Really well done.  The wife's steak was ok if a bit tough (we're from northern Nevada and spoiled with local grass-fed beef) but the fries were thin and crisp.  Staff was accommodating and enjoyed the crowd.  Felt very Parisian.

We stayed at the Renaissance right up the street,  so we tried XVI shortly after arriving in Paris for a quick bite on our first day. It was an odd hour, 4 pm, so it was pretty quiet/slow. The staff was incredibly nice and we really enjoyed the "kinda" cozy atmosphere. We only got some wine, pizza and a cheese selection to hold us until dinner and enjoyed it all. Not amazing, but really good. Honestly, the staff made it excellent. We came back again for some pizza and a seafood salad on our last day. Both very good again, but it was busier, so the service wasn't quite as good as day 1

Poor service, with very mediocre food. We ordered Foie Gras, Eggs with Mayo, Stew and Salmon Pasta. Nothing great. 

Servers are busy with themselves. Did not refill water or even ask.
