A very easy place to just drop in for a traditional French meal which is very well cooked. Service is great with bilingual staff.
We tried the Veal liver which was excellent, soft and tender which perfectly combined with the sauce that after a few bites the taste of liver that puts most people off disappeared and became very pleasant to eat.

We had a lovely early dinner here at the hotel restaurant. David was our server and he was very kind and attentive. Other staff were very nice too! (I believe their names are Theo and Victoria).

We ordered onion soup, Lyonnaise salad and the steak. All were perfectly prepared and delicious. I was surprised but the portions are huge (even the salad and soup).

The patio seats have a lovely view of the Louvre museum.

I wanted to have desserts at the bar but unfortunately we were too full :)
