• François Simon (2011) “Amuses bouches éclatés (avec un petit délice : la purée vanillée), plats chirurgicaux, saveurs à double tiroirs.

• Mark Bittman for The New York Times (2009) “The food is also mysterious, which is not always something I like, but here the experiments are restrained and flavor remains paramount…”
• Patricia Wells “Chef Sylvain Sendra has moved into a charming, modern spot near Place Maubert, and offers a super-modern bistro menu…”
• Alexander Lobrano (2008)  “Itinéraires offers a great snap shot of the best of contemporary French bistro cooking…we loved our starters of green asparagus in a foie gras vinaigrette with borage flowers and a delicate salad of finely chopped marinated salmon and baby vegetables…”
