Reviews

My husband and I visited twice during our trip to Paris in 1999 and were thrilled to bring our kids here in 2026. The food and atmosphere were just as we remembered. We ordered 2 meat and 2 cheese fondues. The kir, appetizers, wine/beer and desserts were delicious as well. I hope it doesn’t take 25+ years to come…
