Fodor's Review:

This bustling wood-beamed restaurant just off Avenue de St-Cloud, overlooking elegant Place Hoche, offers hearty selections of meat and fish, ranging from boeuf Rossini with wild mushrooms to salmon and scallops marinated in lime and the top-price lobster fricasseed in Sancerre. The wine list roams around the vineyards of Bordeaux and Burgundy, while desserts include crème brûlée with lemon zest, and apricot and caramel tart. The EUR 28 prix-fixe menu makes a filling lunchtime option.

Reviewed by jbahr from USA-Colorado on 10/5/09
Absolutely fantastic, the best restaurant experience in our 6 days in Paris (including Tour d'Argent). First course was fish soup from fish/saffron stock, and accompanying bowls of mayo-based creme, fresh croutons, freshly grated romano-parmesan. Fish/scallop wonderment for the entree, dessert of mixed berries and vanilla gelato. Service was impeccable, lunch prix fixe was 28 Euros. Lovely interior, outstanding service. Just down from the entry square from Versailles. I can't recommend this restaurant too highly.
