    Very good address, the food is delicious and you can easily find a seat by booking a day in advance. I'm a bit let down with the quantity of the food (the grilled octopus, served as a main, was very small. Even less than what you would expect from a starter) Good offers during weekdays, for around 30 per person. If the servings were more generous, it would definitely have the level of a Michelin Bib Gourmand

    I dislike perfect scores, but this experience deserves it. In a week focused on food this was a standout. The service was also exceptional and friendly. For those travelling from abroad, the staff was also fluent in English. Highest recommendation.

    Unfortunately completely overrated restaurant. We had for entrees pulpo and asparagus both Very sour and nothing special. For main courses scallops and beef with potatoes which was only decent dish. Wine very good. Service very good. Overall price 90 euro for food, wine and water definitely too much.

    Came for lunch and had an excellent meal at a very good price. Flavors were bold and exciting, and execution was top-notch. Service was professional - minimal, yet attentive when necessary. Definitely worth a visit for those interested in an affordable haute meal

    Overall it was a 4-star experience. Nice dishes, good service, cozy and clean restaurant. The only unpleasant experience is that they served me a bottle of water of 4 euros. Firstly I was just expecting tap water, as most people do in France. They didn't ask me if I want just tap water or bottle water, instead just suggested still or gaz. Secondly, there's apparently "half bottle of water" on the menu. Even if you assumed that I intended for paid water, isn't it better to ask if I want a half or whole bottle? Since I was alone there and indeed didn't finish the whole bottle. I was enjoying my moments there, until this minor thing made the whole meal less pleasant.

    I went to the restaurant around 7 o'clock, and the staff was accommodating in English. For drinks, I ordered Peach Tea and a Martini. As for the food, I tried the Grilled Pork and Grilled Cod, both of which were incredibly delicious. However, the Tuna Tataki we ordered didn't seem to be very fresh, as both my companion and I got stomach aches after eating it. Despite that, the delightful flavors of the pork and cod made me want to revisit the restaurant. I hope they can improve the quality of the Tuna Tataki because I really enjoyed the overall experience. The excellent service and the delicious dishes they offered certainly left a positive impression on me.

    Excellent service, fantastic food. Some of the best bone marrow I've ever had. Ateak and chicken were both excellent. Well curated wime list, and full drink selection. What more to say? They do what they do very well.

    We had very good experience with Oh Purée! I liked how small and precise the menu was. Plus it allowed us to taste almost everything they had. We ordered all of the appetizers: Tuna Tataki, Tomatoes with Mozzarella and Artichoke. Have to say that Tuna Tataki and Tomatoes were subpar. Tuna Tataki tasted very heavily of lime and Tomatoes with Mozzarella was just boring. But Artichoke was amazing! Really great appetizer and very good addition of roasted peanuts! Now when it comes to main courses, we ordered Secreto Iberico and Octopus. They were both very very good! Iberico had aubergines done in three different ways: puréed, deep fried and steamed (I’m guessing the last one, haven’t actually asked). All-in-all these different eggplant variations provided so much fun and excitment to the dish. Really enjoyed! Also surprisingly good pairing with Pork Steak! My girlfriend had Octopus with which she was also super happy with! We also found a very good wine on the menu which we enjoyed throughout the evening. One negative note to say would be the fact that restaurant doesn’t have A/C so it might get pretty hot in there, especilly if you’re sitting closer to the kitchen.

    Food was really nice!! The place was cozy too The only star off was our glasses were covered in dust, so I had not been comfortable with drinking those water with tiny little dusts floating around lol

    Ok, I know that you have heard this before... But this place is a home run. They really have amazing food made with love and top ingredients. The staff is incredible. Speaking perfect english for us that can't speak French. You must try the steak! Give it a try, you won't be disappointed. Sorry for the pic, we couldn't stop ourselves before we took it. 😂

    A true gem in my of my favorite Paris neighborhoods! I’d had this restaurant marked on my bucket list for a while, and finally got the chance to try it. It absolutely went beyond my expectations: an excellent menu with some classic dishes taken to a new culinary level (the best hachis parmentier you’ll ever have). The room itself is gorgeous: brick walls, wooden beams on the ceiling, only about 10 tables in total. The wine list is quite unique. I highly recommend you ask for some advice on Armagnac and Calvados to finish your meal in the best possible way. The staff was definitely a 5-star team: friendly, professional, welcoming, passionate. Don’t wait any longer and book a table :)

    Fanatic restaurant! The cottage pie and duck were highlights. Service was also great and attentive. Prices were also pretty reasonable for the great quality. Will be back!

    The staff were friendly and accommodating. The food was fantastic. Really enjoyed the black Angus and mashed potatoes - one of the best meals I've had in Paris. Looking forward to trying what they have in their next menu when I'm back in Paris!

    The baguette perfect, the tartar was okey. The fish was delicius and also it felt really healthy, very rare combination! The dessert was okey. I will visit again, I want to try some other dishes.

    A cute little restaurant just hidden away a bit from the crowds. Staff was very attentive and the service quick. The food was amazing. Plates not to big and full of flavour. I had space for the cheese which was very tasty as well.

    Nothing but 5 stars. I love the French cuisine and this place was excellent and made me fall in love with the French food and wine. Reasonable pricing.

    A bit of finesse and we will have a raising star. Good meal, good price,good service will recommend my family and friends to go there

    Cozy and good service Close to the Panthéon and easy to get by métro Perfect for a romantic date. I recommend to book a table before going since it is not too big. I had duck, it was good. I find it a little expensive though.

  • 4/5 Chef L. 2 years ago on Google
    It is really good restaurant. The main course are well balanced in flavors. They had ravioli with beef stew, which reminded me of Texas briskets. I will definitely come back!!

  • 5/5 Charlotte P. 2 years ago on Google
    Simply delicious food served! Products are fresh and well presented. Staff was nice and gave good advice on wine-food pairing. Booking strongly recommended as the restaurant is small.

    Had a wonderfully delicious lunch here prepared with care. We like the cosy atmosphere and generous servings at reasonable lunch prices. The menu was entirely in French but luckily we had someone with us who did the translation, otherwise I recommend checking out their online menu and doing some homework prior :) I was pleasantly surprised by the dessert, a citrusy explosion of flavours that taste like sunshine in spring. Great experience overall, just a little tip for families with little ones: there are no baby chairs available so your little one would have to sit on your lap or make do with his/her adult chair ;)

    Typical french restaurant with excellent food and really friendly staff! 5 stars!

  • 5/5 Sebastiaan V. 2 years ago on Google
    This was very special and surprising food. My girlfriend especially loved the squid tagliatelle. I personally recommend the iberico with aubergine. Too bad we didn't have more room for desert, the peach one was amazing so now we have to come back for the one with strawberries another time.

  • 5/5 Simon Van den H. 2 years ago on Google
    Impressive tasty food in a calm street of Quartier Latin with honest prizes and a very friendly and explanatory waiter.

  • 5/5 Yewei Z. 2 years ago on Google

    This restaurant was absolutely amazing, I am very surprised there wasn't a line out the door for seats. They have a very simple menu but they execute it amazingly well. The staff were so kind and very welcoming. The restaurant itself was stunning, the decor and ambience was absolutely beautiful. My partner and I had the steak and I'm not kidding when I say I will dream about that meal for a long time, it was absolutely delicious. For dessert our waiter recommended the cookie, saying "it's the best in the land" and he was not lying, absolutely amazing. I really wish our trip in Paris was longer for the soul purpose of coming back and trying the chicken next time.... but I'd probably order the steak again
