Gorgeous restaurant to eat, chill, enjoy the vibe in Paris. It doesn't get any better than this without having to spend a ton or make it a formal event. Outside patio restaurant is the best when the weather is good. Inside...well inside because it's just so pretty. Pretty people, pretty building, pretty food.
The food is great, creative, the ambiance is friendly. Servers speak English ( and numerous other languages) perfectly. There are no old-school, stuffy French people or cuisine here. It's edgy, interesting, and delicious. ....it's nice to watch a mix of fashion models, business people, and tourist families just mixing it up and having a good time.
We skipped the entrées and went straight for the main dishes: rotisserie chicken, lamb chops. The mains were each respectively accompanied by mashed potatoes and oven-baked small potatoes. We washed it all down with a few glasses of Perrier Jouet champagne. We shared churros w/ vanilla & chocolate sauce for dessert.
Everything was exceptional and flawless. The chicken was perfectly browned with tender meat slipping off the bone and a nice demi-glaze that didn't affect the crispness. The lamb was pink where it should be and deliciously soft.
Service was friendly, attentive, and unpretentious.
Reservations required. It's a popular place. Don't drive here: Metro, taxi, or Uber.
