                                                      First night spent in Paris and we didn’t know where to go, but this restaurant was a gem! So classy, small and beautiful! Definitely enjoyed our night!

                                                      I came alone and late but I never felt like it. The waitress was one of a kind. What I ordered was also absolutely wonderful. I’ll be back again
