Fodor's Expert Review La Buvette chez Simone
The Plateau
Wine Bar
Lively but not obnoxious, this easygoing wine bar is a great place to visit with friends. Arrive early (it opens at 4 pm but the kitchen only gets going at 5 pm), because it's always busy and it doesn't take reservations. Many wines are available by the glass, in 2- and 4-ounce pours, with an emphasis on French varietals. Dress is casual, though the after-work crowd ups the glam factor.
