Lunchtime formule is still a bargain. Service still self-consciously brisk. Management seem to despise tourists, which begs a question: why open a restaurant in one of the most touristy areas in the whole world and then offer a cheap lunch?
Tried to go here this evening and was addressed by a very rude waiter. When there are so many other incredible place in Paris a place with bad service does not deserve any attention!
Never have I seen a restaurant where the service is moving so fast to turn tables over that it actually interferes with the overall experience. The food was passable (NOT great), but it was the brusque, disinterested service that is what I will really remember about this spot. Not recommended.
