Yes, I’ve dined here its very nice but I think better value for money and food can be found at Les Bouquinistes, Guy Savoy’s restaurants. The best way to eat out in Paris, I believe, is lunchtime, and go for the formula which is rarely more than 25 euros, at night its often doubles. I’ve made a list of some good restaurants in the 6th that are very good value at http://www.myweekin.net
