We wandered in at 5:30, ungodly unParisienne time to eat, but after a day walking and Eiffel towering we were ready and any port in a storm. We were warmly greeted, the only other couple left as we sat. We had delicious mushroom soup (du jour) and I had lovely mushroom ravioli in a tomato cream basil sauce, and I wiped the plate with the chewy fresh baguette. Husband had penne arrabiata and was happy too with the homemade flavor of the sauce. If you are in the neighborhood, near the Eiffel Tower, go in with confidence. It's very good and not expensive.
We prefer the small restaurants, and this one was perfect! It's family run and filled with families dining. Only a small table, so one family can take care of everything from greeting to cooking to serving. Granted, you have to wait a bit for service, but if you love the homey personal service.... you will enjoy it. We enjoyed two courses with wine (100 euro). Other reviewers complain about the service, we found it quirky which is it's charm.
The place looks funny, a bit kitsch, but cosy. The food is ok (not extraordinary, but nice)... but 21€ for penne alla norma or gnocchi al gorgonzola is really exaggerated.
The meal was good, but the portion are really very very small. with starter main course and dessert we were still hungry :=(
The perfect little Italian. Hard to beat this little treasure. Everything is above perfection. Lombardia e perfetta.
