One of the best restaurants I've ever eaten in in my life. Warmly charming, authentic decor delicious food without a hint of pretension. They don't need to pretend. They are the real deal.
Delicious from start to finish - the chicken liver pâté was the standout of our order, next time we're ordering 2 plates of it! Lovely service. We can't wait to come back again soon!
Super delicious, the service is warm. Highly recommend!
A French restaurant where you hear tables around you speaking in French. Cozy & quaint decor, a very homey vibe. A classic French Bistro menu & a great range of crepes. Love the escargots in garlic butter. The Cheese on the French Onion Soup has set, so was a bit hard & chewy. The Crepe Calva was showy with the flambé. Overall the meal was very satisfying.

I have given the restaurant a 4 today - which would have been a 5 if only they had remembered to give us the window table I had asked for (when I booked a few days ago). I took the precaution of booking because we were an elderly group (me at 79 the youngest) - and the oldest was a man fast approaching 100! I have to say that the food was superb, the service also good and it was a pity that the experience was spoiled by two of the worst behaved children I have ever encountered in a restaurant. The mother had to be asked twice (once by the near 100 year old and once by me) to control her children. Unfortunately the manager did not intervene at all and although it was a difficult situation I felt he should have done so. The father told us his children's conduct was `none of our business' which was surprising under the circumstances. However, once they left the ambiance returned to normal and as I previously said, the food was superb. We will definitely return - hopefully with a table better suited for the hard of hearing and without the difficult children.
Incredible value for money. French toast, bacon and eggs, coffee and crepes for 2 people totalled $48! The food is to die for, the toast is soft and fluffy, the coffee is made perfectly and the atmosphere and decor is fitting and on point. So far, our favourite French cafe in Auckland.
This place is great! Seems like authentic homy food. Tried the beef bourguignon and thought the flavors were delicious! I just didn’t like the texture of the beef cheeks it was very gelatinous.
As a french I come here often. The food is good just maybe the potatoes are not soft enough or tender. I had a raclette and a galette with potatoes inside it was the same. Nothing catastrophic, I will come back again and again. The waitress is super nice and it's very fast. I recommend this restaurant.
OMG what a place! Had a Tartiflette and a glass of white wine. And it was heaven in my mouth. I love this place and couldn’t get over the food. MUST MUST VISIT. Amazing food, good ambiance and nice staff. Ventilation was an issue but apart from that the food was outstanding. Cheers 🍻
I was craving comfort food. This was close to our hotel - and I am so glad it was. We got the French onion soup and Tartiflette and of course crepes for dessert! The food was really tasty and just as good as anything we had in France.
I can definitely recommend the Tartiflette!
Food is great ! 🥰 so is the service 🙏🏻 we were craving for escargot 🐌 and here we go , onion soup is good and sweet, pan fried fish is also good , thank you for the great food and good service , friendly staffs. Highly recommended 👍🏼☺️😍
Loved this place for something different. Had French onion soup and galette. My fiancee had snails and coq au vin. Nice atmosphere. Great food. Would love to try some other options another time. The food was so incredibly fast, but no one seemed to mind that we took out time leaving. Hope to be back again.
Tres magnifique! A popular restaurant with fast and friendly service. We loved the French onion soup avec croutons et la Dijonnaise galette. Crepes Suzette and a Creme Brulee to follow. Superb 👌 (It's an easy walk there up Queen St after a concert or show).
Food was brilliant, decor stunning. I'm not French but if it wasn't 100% authentic, I'm a bad judge. Very popular, even on a weeknight, I would book. Get a crepe, flambed at your table for your viewing pleasure. As we say in Oz, do yourself a favour.
10/10 :Quaint restaurant with a heart! Beautiful service from the staff and to the owner and chef especially. He looked after us the whole night considering we are a group of 12. Definitely made our night memorable and for that we are very grateful. The food was top notch. Worth visiting. Will definitely be back!
Always grabbing foods when I’m available. Le garde manger is absolutely the best choice!
Apple tarte and chocolate fondant are the best since I have a sweet tooth!!

I was looking for a place to have my brunch/lunch, just passed by this restaurant and was caught by its style, something made me want to have a closer look, without knowing what at first. Once I did, I understood what it was: it is a traditional French restaurant with typical decoration, and it was love at first sight, bringing me back to my home country
I asked the owner, who's not only French but
from Normandy where crepes come from, for his recommendation, he mentioned the Savoyarde galette (a galette being a savory crepe, and the Savoyarde one being with raclette cheese, bacon, onion, potato and cream)
I went for it, and I must say it was really REALLY yummy, just loved every single bite
I warmly recommended this restaurant, best one I've been to in Auckland/New-Zeland
What a quaint wee Resturant.
A real French feel with nice decor and decorations.
The staff were friendly and service was great. Food was very nice and they had a good selection of wines with a couple of locals thrown in too.
Clean toilets were appreciated. Well done would eat here again.
Loved our meal here. Commenced with lamb ravioli, then I had the snapper which was cooked to perfection. My husband enjoyed beef bourguignon. Crepes Suzette was a winner!
