Tout était parfait pour 2 sur 3 d'entre nous (rognons & dorade). Cependant, une personne a été déçue: les légumes farcis n'étaient pas assez relevés au niveau des noix grenobles qui étaient presqu'en poudre au lieu d'être hachées. La texture laissait aussi à désirer pour elle.

Tres beau restaurant, typique d'un restaurant parisien. Decor authentique & soigné.
Belle variété d'entrées, plats & desserts avec des options végétariennes.
Plat goûtus, bien travaillés. Des vins absolument incroyables à un prix tout à fait correct. Le détail est la, les plats sont servis dans des assiettes bien chaudes & joliment présentées. Portion en parfaite quantité & produits de qualité.
Je conseille complètement pour une petite soirée, sans trop de prétention, juste pour passer un bon moment !

Excellent service agréable & rapide. Très pratique d'aller manger juste avant un spectacle au Lion d'Or. Malheureusement endroit très bruyant, & cher pour le type d'assiettes proposées…

Plat principal de côtelette d'agneau sachez que vous aurez simplement deux morceaux de côtelette dans votre assiette cela est parfait si vous n'avez pas faim & voulez payer 38$ pour deux morceaux de côtelette d'agneau avec quelques légumes trop cuit dans votre assiette

Pour une fois, j'ai une critique a faire: la taille des portions... Lorsque l'entrée de tartare ne fait que 4 bouchées pour 22$, puis la portion d'onglet ne fais que 150 grammes pour 35 ou 40$, je crois qu'on exagère.
Toujours bon, toujours excellent service, mais n'oubliez pas qu'on y va pour manger.
J'avais faim en sortant.
