My mother-in-law recently passed away.  She made very delicious couscous.  And we miss her so much!
We have several friends and family living in the area, and was told that Le Taïs serves deliciously authentic Kabyle food.  
Upon arrival, we were greeted very warmly.  It was like being welcomed to someone's home.  Everyone was super nice and accommodating.  The menu had all the dishes we were missing from my MIL's cooking.  The ambiance was casual yet homey.  We came around 1:30PM just passed lunch hour and the place still had a lot of customers.  Lots of locals with their families in the restaurants.  
We had the couscous Royale and a few grilled items.  It was the perfect comfort food for the cold winter afternoon.  It was like getting a great big hug.  Everything tasted fresh and delicious.  
The prices are very reasonable especially when you see the portion and quality.   I would give them 10 stars if I could for the price/value/quality.  
Let me tell you about their cleanliness as well.  For the amount of traffic they get, the place is impeccable.  
This place is truly going to our MUST visit restaurant in Paris every time we go.  Especially now that my MIL is no longer with us.  This place help fills the void.  But nothing will ever replace her cooking.  
We would need to check out both their branches in the 11th and the 20th districts.

Short version:  Busy, unpretentious, inexpensive couscous eatery near an intersection heaving with local streetlife.  

Food:  delicious, generous portions, affordable.  Couscous grains steamed to fluffy perfection, served with vegetable-chunk broth and your choice of animal bits alongside on separate plates.  Vegetables are a very coarse, farmhouse cut, broth heavily turnip-accented.  Grilled lamb was very tasty.  Pasty-white North Americans toting cameras will not be brought harissa, so ask for one of the bowls of red stuff from the counter.

Service:  courteous, but informal.  Ablutions:  primitive, but usable.  Atmosphere:  loud, full of local color, but definitely a put-your-head-down-and-eat place, rather than relaxed fine dining.

A fair bet for an empty stomach on a cold, wet evening.
