Reviews of interest
- John Talbott (2011) “…we started off with a carafe of wine and some sliced sausage (very good products)… scallops (adequate product) with leeks cooked in an agrume sauce (unusual) and I had the echine of porc (standard) with potatoes dauphinois (great even for my potato-deficient palate) and beet greens. We ended splitting a “brownie” (extraordinary)…”
- Gilles Pudlowski (2011) “Bref, ce petit coin gourmand…prend un tour gourmand, moderne, poétique et buissonnier. La table d’hôte accueille pour des grignotages sérieux…”
- Aaron Ayscough (2011) “…a very adequate natural wine canteen that serves actual agreeable meals throughout the day on Sundays. This fact alone should make it a Paris destination.”
- Barbra Austin via Girls’ Guide to Paris (2010) “The food is simple, fresh and mostly classic French while paying heed to the contemporary obsession with pedigreed ingredients. The shelves are stocked with products you’ll want for your own pantry…a glass case displays charcuterie…and elements for creating your own composed salad.”
- Alexander Lobrano (2010) “Our happy crew started with an excellent assortment of charcuterie…Then a choice between roast Challans chicken or crispy skinned spit-raosted duck from the Basque Country, both served with a delicious little galette de pommes de terre and a mesclun-and-herb salad.”
- Meg Zimbeck for BlackBook (2010) “This new restaurant-shop next to Astier is exactly what Paris needs more of right now: affordable wines (€5 per glass for the good stuff), premium charcuterie, delicious terrines, hefty platters of roasted meat (farm-raised chicken, Challans duck) served creamy potatoes and a gravy boat, a salad bar where veg-lovers can compose their own bowl, a case full of oozy cheese, and a large table that can seat up to twelve.”

Another great recommendation! We had dinner here tonight and really enjoyed our meal. The guys were so good with Seb and my gigot d’agneau au laid was just melt in your mouth tender. We just made our reservations this afternoon, so definitely a good bet for last minute. Thanks again, PBM!
