We arrived at 12pm on a Thursday in Nov 2024 without reservation and got a table without waiting.

Our server spoke English and we managed to order smoothly. They provided lunch menu but we went for a la cart. Both items were really really delicious! Highly recommend.

I can only give the atmosphere 3 stars as the table was way too small and it was too packed between tables. Coming here in Nov with big coats was a bit hard to fit in such a small table. Having said that, the decoration was cute!

Service was completely fine! Our server was nice and spoke good English. We are non French but were treated properly.

Amazing food and service, great vibe and huge portions. Duck was spectacular and chocolate mousse is best in class and served with a great dollop of drama.  So delicious and so rich I couldn't finish the enormous portion... but worth trying. Book well ahead- this place is packed but worth the planning.

Wonderful food that was perfectly cooked. Our server, Samir, was incredibly kind and the ideal server. He was genuinely a good host to everyone and made our experience that much better. Although tipping isn’t usually customary, we had to give a 20% tip. The interior had a great vibe and cool decoration.

Well Worth the wait .
The crown of the experience was their heavenly chocolate mousse ! I was certain we will leave nothing , but the amount was huge we only managed half of it .
We had food restrictions & surprisingly , they were super friendly and accommodated to our special needs, although the place was full & they were super busy! My daughter & I appreciated their hospitality , care and attention .
We booked on the same day , bec the day before we had no chance. Don’t stand in the line if you want to book for later . Can’t go wrong on any order .

Went there for late lunch after seeing the restaurant on social media, we wanted to try the famous chocolate mousse! By the way, you can’t just go for dessert, you do need to come for a proper meal. Everything was mediocre apart from the chocolate mousse! I had a caesar salad where the chicken was cold, but apparently that’s how it’s supposed to be served. I also had a baked cheese with tomatoes that was basic. My friend had the snail pasta which was blend. However, the chocolate mousse was amazing! Very rich and exactly how a french chocolate mousse should be like. Bread was cold as if it had stayed in the fridge, the staff said it was certainly not possible. The atmosphere is a typical french bistrot and quite nice! Overall disappointing especially for the price you pay! We did get complimentary shots at the end! If you want a spot outside don’t forget to make a reservation!
