Family restaurant, a true hidden gem. Dishes are bistro style, as you would imagine a french grandma cooking.Classic, simple presentation and the flavours are all there.Didn't try anything I didn't enjoy. The selection of wines offered are basic, but perfect with the food. The owners are a friendly couple who speak very nice English and can have a chat if you're willing. The decor is great and you feel like you're in someone's living room. Desserts are all homemade and tasty too. Prices are mid-range, but worth it for the quality and atmosphere. I will try and visit every time I'm in Paris.

We go to the Vanves flea market every Saturday (and sometimes Sunday) when in Paris and after a morning of searching through the manettes (cases of "stuff" from house clearing), we look for a nice restaurant for lunch. Almost by chance, we found the Jeroboam which is discretely located on Rue Didot a few blocks north of the market.We have visited most of the restaurants in the area and up until now, our favorite was nearby, but was disappointing the last time. We decided to try something new and are we ever happy we did! We should have, but did not reserve, however, we were welcomed. We were a bit hesitant to be shown to the basement, however, even on the main floor, the restaurant is not flooded with light and the two seating areas in the basement are perfectly fine - perhaps a bit quieter, but still pleasant. In any case, the main floor was completely full and by the time we left, the basement had many tables filled. No tourists, but maybe not to be expected in the heart of the 14th arrondissement. We had a really nice, friendly server (serveuse?) that explained the daily specials, gave my Swedish friend a short lesson in French - in a nice way and made us feel very welcome. The daily menu was quite nice, with some items on the chalkboard not available, but the substitutes were fine - who could complain about a smoked salmon salad or grilled swordfish instead of tuna. A nice amuse bouche - crispy cheese and what seemed like crushed shortbread made into small rounds, The salads were very good and generous, served on a slate. We had the swordfish with a fantastic drizzle of pesto and our friends had magret de canard with a really nice cheesy sliced potato stack. All were quite happy with the meal.Wine by the glass is very reasonable, generously poured and many possible selections. Highly recommended

We propose French traditional "bistronomic" cuisine with fresh products only, and propose an exceptional choice of french wines (bottles or glasses) that we personally selected. We are located between the Catacombes and the Marriot Rive Gauche Hotel. Open

We used Trip Advisor to find a wonderful nearby restaurant for dinner, and it was a winner. This is a very small restaurant, with absolutely excellent French food and a good local wine selection. We completely enjoyed ourselves. The restauranteur was so attentive, and we thoroughly enjoyed his recommendations. The Foie Gras was outstanding, and we thoroughly enjoyed the duck breast and the beef stew. We are going back again tonight!

The restaurant is fairly new, in a building across from the Marie de Villejuif; in nice weather they have what would be a very sunny terrace. We were there for dinner, in January, so the terrace was NOT on our agenda. The party was four people, three adults and a well traveled 12 year old. I ordered the scallops wrapped in parma-ham as my starter, they were deicious and perfectly cooked, just done through, but still with the texture of uncooked in the center. My companion ordered house prepared Salmon Gravlax, I tasted it and it was also quite good. I ordered the faux fillet special (looked and tasted to me like an excellent NY Strip) served with potatoes and a nice salad of mixed greens. The other two adults ordered Fillet du Bar (we think it is Sea Bass) and again it was excellent. The youngest ordered Riosotto de Truffle and wasn't too happy with her choice (it was the 1st time she'd ordered Risotto, I tried a good taste of it and it was good too). We enjoyed a bottle of Cote du Rhone and desserts (all prepared to order). Service was good, food was very good to excellent and the atmosphere stylishly modern. I would recommend the restaurant, it is not far from the line 7 stop for Marie de Villjuif.

This hole-in-the wall restaurant, elegantly decorated in blue, white and red, is a short (approx 15 min) walk from the catacombs, through a charming neighborhood, pedestrian market included. If you're looking for an upscale, delicate, delicious and friendly restaurant, you can't do better. Our waiter, Fabian, saw that our French was terrible, and made sure, with good humor and jokes tossed in, that we understood everything we were about to order. Since we went for lunch, there were only two other tables seated for lunch, and together, we built a rapport that made our lunch even more special. I cannot recommend it more highly. We look forward to returning to Paris, and AUX Enfants Gates! (Not LES Enfants Gates! that's a different restaurant!)

First of all this place is in a walking distance if you are staying at Novotel or IBIS at portd'orleans area. The service is top notch and staff is friendly - make their best attempt to translate menu in English and give their recommendation. They have choices for vegetarians tooThe menu keeps changing but food was great- had a fish tartare on a bed of lentils, followed by Salmon in full sauce and Tiramisu for desert. Can't complain about anything. In Paris there are many good restaurants but if you are tired or don't want to travel far then look no further than this place

We were recommended to this restaurant and it certainly didn't disappoint. The first impression is that the staff are very friendly, very knowledgeable and speak English. The menu is compact but changes monthly and they are willing to adapt to particular individual requirements which was a great help for us. We spend a lovely evening there and would most certainly go out of our way to return.

If you really want to eat good burgers, go to this place.Hands down the best burger I ever had in my life!We got to this place around noon, the place was packed but we were seated quickly.It has a nice French atmosphere, but not tourists-french.The menu is simple, with a nice burger selection at really good prices. All the burgers comes with small salad and fries.They are VERY generous with the toppings, and the mayonnaise sauce on the side is heaven!So if you want to eat the best burger in the world (yes, world!) go there, you will not regret it! The staff was really friendly, and if you don't speak french they have an english menu :)I would definitely go there again! I'm really happy we've found this place.
