"Apart from the great atmosphere, the best thing there is the chocolate mousse made the old-fashioned way and served in a large pottery vat with a ladle - and you can eat as much as you want. A dream!"
"Cuisine is as close as you get to Provençal in Paris, with all the southern classics like lavender-scented crème brulée."
"A provençal style bistro serving traditional dishes like duck breast. Affordable and tasty, the restaurant is located in a charming setting on a quiet corner deep in the Marais."
"Here, I ate the biggest crème brûlée ever and it was delicious."
"The atmosphere is lively, the ratatouille is great, and the pastis menu is huge."
"Come for the Provençal food and decor, stay for the enormous bowl of chocolate mousse they plop in front of you for dessert — and let you serve yourself AS MUCH AS YOU WANT. It’s massive, and the mousse is marvelous."
"And to finish it off - a bowl of chocolate mousse twice the size of our heads. It is the chocolate mousse of your dreams, like eating a smoothy, creamy, dark but sweet chocolate bar."
"Three of us lunched together – we shared the ratatouille with delicious bread for entree – it was served with anchovy paste and olive tapenade – all absolutely scrumptious – and plenty for 3 people!!!!"
"The duck breast in red wine sauce is the highlight of the menu."
"Finish off with a lavender-scented crème brulée."

"Huge romantic and chocolate mousse enthusiast here… the answer is YES. I recently went on a date here after a recommendation from a foodie friend of mine, and I am glad that I listened, even after waiting 3 hours to be seated. Advice: worth it, and order a bottle of wine 🍷 while you’re standing to be seated. This mousse is as decadent and dreamy as the environment! It was hard not to fall in love with the person across from you… Or is that just Paris’ mystique? It was the most romantic experience of my life… steps away from a Midnight stroll to Place des Vosges… A night so sweet, that you will never forget."
