“ We have been here several times... as a couple, as a family, with friends and as a big party of 8. The value is great. The menu is diverse and yet still authentic. The service is fun, and yet still very Paris. Yes it is in a busy tourist area, but our view is you cannot go wrong here. We have had duck, steak, tar tar, seafood platters, and salads at different times - and all have been great. We'll be back again and again. ”
