Usually open 24 hours but I think they close at 12am during covid. A local favorite when you’re hungry and want a classic french, late night meal. A great choice if you’re jet lagged and everything is closed.

They only serve three things here: salad, steak and fries. No reservations so come early. The most touristy restaurant on the list but it's really good especially their green pepper steak sauce. Go to the original location in Saint Germain.
