This review will be as frenetic as my experience at Jacky Ribaultâs LâOurs newly Michelin crowned restaurant in Vincennes, a chi chi town, located a stoneâs throw from Paris by RER. The design and space are magnificent! This is a beautiful restaurant, large, but with nooks and crannies creating intimacy. The emerald greens, oriental rugs, and gold leaf reflect an oriental richness, reminding each patron you are sitting in a special place. That is, until you look up. An incongruous, industrial roof will stare back at you, in total discord with the rest of the design. Je ne comprend pas?An army of tuxedo clad men, no women, scurry about, supposedly ensuring excellent, if not chauvinist, service. I rejected our first table, tucked away in a corner near the kitchen, and chose a spot with a bright window so we could both peer outside and see the food. A huge flower arrangement sat on our table, blocking our view and the serverâs sight line. This will prove to be a major obstacle. Discarding any thought of the offered 45 Euro three course lunch menu, we opted for the five course 75 Euro menu, and awaited the culinary performance.The Amuse Bouch was wonderful, with unique explosions of flavor. Our first course of Sea Bream, a sweet beet sauce, and the tiniest sliver of shaved pork belly was delicious as the beets complimented the fish masterfully. A side of Barley Risotto was a light, earthy partner. The next serving destroyed my wifeâs taste buds. A fishy, overly rich, broiled piece of eel with a sesame Nori, overpowered any other sensation. It was nuclear, too heavy to enjoy. That dish ended my wifeâs lunch. She barely hung in there as I ate the rest of the meal. Asleep an hour after lunch, she asked me to cancel tonightâs dinner reservation. A Japanese inspired broth followed and then a Capon. Everything was good, but not necessarily memorable. Desserts were a nice, fruit soufflé and a goat milk concoction. Portions were hearty and most of the chefâs creations tasted good, but not fantastic.The army of tuxedo clad dudes proved âwell meaning,â but were without leadership or direction. They all shared service and tables, thus ensuring no one received personal attention. They completely forgot my wifeâs wine, and I had to remind them about my vodka three times. However, they always found time to escort me to the bathroom. Thank you very much. The huge flower arrangement sitting in front of our faces didnât help the sight lines at all. Service looked a bit like the old Keystone Cops movies. âWhich way did they go!âThe bill for lunch came to 224 Euros, including one glass of wine, two vodkas, and a small bottle of Perrier. Thatâs a lot of money for just a good meal in a fabulous space.

We arrived at this restaurant without a reservation (in a quiet residential area) and there was no problem seating out group of 4. The staff were very efficient and friendly and nothing seemed to much trouble.The surroundings are tastefully decorated and the food is outstanding without being over priced. Testimony to this, is the fact that the restaurant was almost full when we left.I would recommend the steak, I can't honestly remember the last time I had one that good..... It was like cutting butter!Cannot recommend highly enough.

We came here for lunch. The waiters attitude was great from the start to the end. We took the 23Eur lunch set which offers dishes of the day (starter, main course and yoghurt or dessert). Starter was great (mackerel fish) but the stewed beef was really disappointing as it was way too hard. The risotto side dish did not fit well with the beef. The dessert was a cheese cake which was not outstanding. Average experience overall. The à la carte courses look better indeed but the prices are not the same...

The location of this restaurant could not be worse. Hard to reach because of the tortuous one-way system of this Ile-de-France borough, it is even harder to find parking once you get there. But the rewards of this foolhardiness include food that is simply sensational, and prices that defy the laws of Economics. Food as art carries the risk of persisting hunger. Food as surrealist art even more so. Not here, where appetite as well as all five senses will be amply gratified. Since our first visit several years ago, the staid conventional wood-dominated décor has been upgraded to glass, steel and ceramic The space seems to be somewhat larger, and the wait staff much younger and less competent than previously. But the food remains as imaginative as ever. The 41-euro menu buys three courses ( choice of 4 for each) plus a fine selection of cheeses, unfortunately badly presented and poorly explained by our waiter. The complimentary extras included an amuse bouche (Lobster and goatâs cheese raviolis in a creamy mustard sauce), and a stunning pre-desert (a glass of frozen white-chocolate mousse). My entrée was billed as a crème brulee with Burgundy snails and garlic, and was flamed with cognac by the resident arsonist. My wifeâs comprised three perfectly plump scallops on a crunchy cheese biscuit topped with a luxurious cole-slaw of beetroot flavored with passion-fruit. For the main course, I selected the snowy-white cod-steak with exquisitely crisped skin, placed in a crunchy buttery leek-tart along with diced onions and tomatoes, and accompanied by a sauce of anise. The breast of chicken coated with roasted almonds chosen by my wife came with girolle mushrooms, a chestnut sauce, and a delectable range of tiny vegetables. Two spectacular deserts, the pinnacle of the confectionerâs art, followed: a crafty mélange of fried pineapple, passion-fruit pulp, and a mousse of rum and dark chocolate; Paris Brest --- a donut of choux pastry sliced to provide a âsandwichâ of almond and hazel-nut fourre, and a side-portion of carmel ice-cream. A trio of delectable gourmandizes concluded this feast. An important tip: if you do drive, arrange to stop outside the door and seek help with the parking; they know where, and you donât. Bon appétit.

Was recommended by friends and decided to try it for a quick lunch. We went for the menu for 16.50 including main dish and dessert. I chose the fish of the day who was very tasty but the rice with it was over cooked. The veg were fresh and tasty too. We had for dessert the charlotte au chocolat which was a big mistake: not nice presentation, to heavy, we expected something much more with a home made charlotte style and taste. Only 3 desserts were on the menu so was obvious for us to pick the charlotte.At lunch time you expect to be looked after very quickly which was not the case. The restaurant was quickly full. I guess after 12.45 it's necessary to book. We didn't.

I ate here with one of my friends on a Saturday night and we had an absolutely amazing meal. It was orgasmically good. The wine recommendations were great and really went with the dishes we chose. My duck with pear was one of the best meals I've had for ages and it was nice to have a meal not served with chips but with real potatoes roasted in garlic.If you are in the area you must go to this small but amazing place.

If you happen to be near Joinville on a sunny day, do not hesitate and get a table at Le Petit Pont. The terrace of this restaurant set in an island is the perfect spot for a relaxed but delicious lunch. You'll be sitting next to the river Marne in a green and quiet oasis. Better book your table by phone though as Le Petit Pont is deservedly considered the best restaurant in town (and probably also the most expensive). On my visit I had a great veal tartare, followed by a perfect cod in chorizo crust. My partner took the oeufs meurette, a house special, made of poached egg, in a red wine with bacon dices sauce, and the pollock . The exotic fruit Pavlova desert was very tempting even if our choice went for the Café gourmand (coffee + small deserts). For all tll this, plus 50 cl of a decent white wine and a large bottle of sparkling water, we paid around 90 euros. The lunch was a really memorable one. Note that this is a place where you need not to be in a hurry. But this is for a very good reason: all food is prepared from scratch before beeing served, as the owner told us. So at rush hour you might have to wait a bit if you just came for a main course. Rather than waiting, do not hesitate in taking an entrée. They are delicious.
