Great little restaurant that's worth your time and money. Had both the steak and French onion soup, I recommend both!

Come to this cafe for a classic French/Parisian breakfast. The portion sizes are not very large, but that is to be expected of a Parisian diet. The fresh pressed orange juice is worth the extra price and the choice of filtered coffee or caffeinated tea along with baguette or croissant get the job done to start the day off.

Quaint little bistro. Service was quick, food wasn’t spectacular but prices were pretty reasonable. All in all a decent spot for a quick bite to eat and a drink.

Bustling little bistro in the 10e. Friendly, welcoming, and attentive staff and a good, quality meal for the cost. I had Soupe à l'oignon gratinée to start, followed by Saucisson d'Auvergne over pureed potatoes with thyme jus, and chocolate cake. Simple, well-prepared, wonderful! Definitely recommend!
