Such a great find! Tucked away in an innocuous condo building is this little corner of France. Authentic, fresh dishes served sometimes by the chef himself. Make sure to stop by to make reservations in advance as seating is limited.

A small piece of Paris right here in the Windy City! Don’t go for a quick bite, but for a dining experience. The food is amazing, and despite what some say about the service – it is actually top notch with a very personal touch. It is literally a Parisian experience – enjoy the slower paced dining experience instead of your typical American table service.

Monsieur Alain is a joy! He’s a no-nonsense restauranteur who is very knowledgeable and serious about food. He owns & runs this small old school joint and wears many hats: host, server, bartender, & chef. Last night me and my boyfriend started with a bottle of red wine, escargot, and French onion soup. I selected the duck entree and he chose the liver. Of course we finished it off with creme brûlée. We will definitely return! Prices are very economical. If you’re looking for an Instagram aesthetic or Michelin star price point bragging rights, then this isn’t the place for you. If you’re a foodie then you definitely need to visit this place.

This place is amazing. A hidden gem. Our table had corn soup, onion soup, cheese plate to start. For mains we had steak frites and gnocchi. Everything was delicious. The owner is so nice and accommodating. I will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu.

DON’T GO! It is a classist and discriminatory place. I can’t believe that in the middle of the 21st century, a restaurant doesn’t let someone in because of their physical appearance or way of dressing. Terrible.
