I am not sure where those went that rated the restaurant below a 3.  We had a variety of items including the the fish, the trio of burgers, and the tartare.   The tartare was fabulous.  Nice balance of flavor.  I especially enjoyed the added crunch of the onions.   I did request that the fries be cooked a little longer but they came out normal.  Not a big deal but it impacts the taste and texture for me.  The staff was attentive and nice.  Would definitely go back.

The food here was outstanding. The burger was juicy and the 1664 Blonde beer was a perfect pair. The fries were ok, nothing to write home about. The dessert his the spot! Absolutely no complaints. 

For 1 beer, 2 burgers and 2 desserts we spent $59 Euros. 

I would definitely eat here again!

This was a good place to eat. Servers were a bit slow to refill drinks so order a few at a time. Other than that the food was good. The food related service was just fine. They were also friendly which is important to me because I'm an American. I would go back and I have recommended this to my family already.

The food was good. We had a language barrier but a server in the restaurant spoke English. Overall a good meal for under 20 euro

Really bad staff. when we arrived no one was there to show us our table so we just sat somewhere and a guy shows up really rude and tells us in really bad english to move elsewhere. And then we sat in the other table, got the menu. He just arrived again and -without saying anything- pulled the menus off of our hands and left. 
We left right after.
Dont go there.

The food was average at best. Steak was overdone. I asked for medium rare and got really well done. The waitress almost never came by only to drop my food off and then to bring my check at the end. I don't mind paying for good food, but the price was not equivalent to the quality here. Too expensive for average to below average food and service.

Little disgusting place with terrible staff. If you are a tourist and french is not your first language you will have a hard time here with the waiters which, by the way, took the menu off our own hands! Not recommend at the slightest even if you are the biggest steak lover in paris!!
