  we didn't want to go to a place that was overcrowded or felt too trendy/touristy, so we wound up here.
  
  at first glance it looks like there are only three tables in the restaurant, which were all taken by older people speaking French when we walked in, but we asked for a table and were shown to a larger rear room with about eight tables. we dined there alone (a wonderful break from the busy streets). the meal was delicious -- i had saucisse aligot (sausage with cheese potatoes) and my companion had a big fresh salad. the dessert, which we almost opted not to order, was the real kicker. we had house-made mousse de chocolate and plum tarte (and espressos to boot). i've has several chocolate mousses here in Paris thus far, and this one...i don't know, really tastes like the "real thing" should taste? it was outstanding.
  
  all reasonably priced. no outdoor seating. it does feel like a time warp, but to a rural restaurant in mid-80's France. our server and the manager were super nice, too. highly recommend.

  We stayed in the apartment right across the street from this place so we decided to try it on our first night in Paris. We had one of the best dinners here. We felt right at home. Everyone was very attentive. Did I mention everything we had was delicious? We'll definitely be back.

  Its great for the postwar late 40's early 50's atmosphere. The food is very basic french fare like steak frites and poulet roti. Nice mom & pop feel but go for the mood more than the food.
