Paris - Is the Equinox Restaurant (Marais) still in business?

Quick question:

Does anyone know if the Equinox restaurant (R. des Rosiers just off R. Vielle du Temple in the Marais) is still in business. It is a small, inexpensive (but decent food) restaurant that my wife and I have enjoyed our last two visits to Paris (2007 and 2009).

It doesn't show up on Google Maps, and I can't find any recent links/reviews. Google Street View shows it, but that could be an old image set.

We're going back in May, and we always stay in the Marais, and I am in the process of updating my short list of cheap eats within walking distance.

Thanks.
SS

I just checked on www.cityvox.fr, which is like opentable, and it is showing as open. Looks like you can even reserve online:

I can't tell you for sure, but it shows up as a business in the French yellow pages (http://www.pagesjaunes.fr), at 33-35 r. Rosiers, in the 4th Arr. It's also listed in Cityvox Paris (http://www.cityvox.fr), though the most recent review is from August of last year. If you put that address into Google maps, it does show up.

Equinox is definitely still in business. We stayed in an apartment on the rue des Rosiers for a month in January and ate at Equinox three or four times. It has to be the best 15 euro meal in Paris! I don't think you can find better food for the price anywhere.

Thanks, everyone...

...and Rudydog49, we agree. Our trips to Paris have only been a week long, but we usually go there twice in one week, depending on what the menu is on each day.

Any other recommendations for eating in the Marais? We are staying there in May for 5 nights.

We have eaten at Soprano on the Place du Marche Ste. Catherine several times. It's Italian, not French, but the food is good and reasonably priced, and the staff is very friendly. Although we haven't been there in a couple of years, I remember L'Enoteca, off of Rue St. Antoine in the St. Paul area as being very good. A bit more formal and expensive than Soprano, but better food. Of course, you can't beat the 5 euro falafels at L'As du Falafal on the rue des Rosiers.

We live part time in the Marais and 2 of our favorites are still the Dome Du Marais and L'Hangar. Both are on tripadvisor or yo can google them.

Also should have said the Dome is a better deal for lunch than dinner 'natch and Hangar is dinner only.

wittmann2020 - there really isn't a bookmark function, so to approximate it some Fodorites enter a reply as you see above. That way they can do a search on their username at a later time and the topic will appear on the list returned. An imperfect system, but...
