On the bustling Place Gustave-Toudouze, this Parisian bistro evokes a chic 1970s flat, with waxed concrete, orange velvet and contemporary artwork in a warm, trendy atmosphere. In the evening, candles flicker behind linen curtains, piquing the curiosity of passers-by. The compact menu is brimming with well-balanced ideas: seared line-caught mackerel with a punchy salsa verde; a warming shallot, bone marrow and Comté tartlet. The must-try natural wines are carefully sourced, and the service is laid-back and efficient. The place is often packed.
