L'Oustal - Paris

We found this restaurant by chance during the walk through the streets of paris and were caught by an interesting menu. we were greeted by a friendly waiter with whom we were able to communicate in English. a rich offer allowed us to taste some typical French dishes, and this place is ideal for children for which the restaurant offers a 3-course menu.

Came here as we seen they had duck breast on the menu, was average and nothing to get excited about, duck was very chewy and I ordered mash as my side, the water came back and told us there was none to pick something else...so I just chose chips.. Didn't really go well with the dish and felt a bit underwhelmed by the meal. 23 euros for a mediocre meal was a bit steep considering my partner had the roast chicken for 11 euro and his was actually far nicer. When we were leaving the restaurant the waiter walked past us with a side of mash for another table so not sure why I had to change mine to chips.

Loving the cafe culture. Great spot for catching the sun. Wonderful wine, very friendly staff. Nice clean restaurant with good coffee also. Very reasonably priced, great location.

We were served with an excellent salad and beef fillet (a little overcooked), and the foie grass with the fillet was excellent. The Dorade was perfectly cooked, but the vegetables that came with it were unimaginable. The apple cake was a little disappointing; it did not seem homemade, as advertised. Service was nice, but it took a long time to get our check. When the check arrived, it didn't have the Lafourchette discount.

On my last betting trip, I ate here twice. the staff was much more sympathetic and reactive compared to many other places we visited.
