    We've been here twice already. Once for lunch outside, and the second time for dinner indoors the following day. Quintessential Parisian restaurant. The waiters are friendly and will try to cater to Americans.

    The food is good, the atmosphere is very French, and we've been satisfied the both times that we've been here. I tried my first taste of foie gras and was very satisfied. I appreciated the waiter's instructions on how to eat it with the bread. The staff was attentive to our needs the whole time. Our waiter was hilarious! He made our experience tres bon.

    This delightful bistro was located near our Air bnb and I am sorry we waited until so late in the trip to trip it. I had fish and chips that came with some greens, and my kids dined on "chicken nuggets" (really a pan fried chicken breast cut into slices), and a "cheeseburger" that was sized for an adult, both of which came with a crepe for dessert.  The service was friendly and accommodating, the bathroom downstairs is like from a magazine, and we felt very welcome. I would definitely eat here again if I was in the neighborhood.

    In a nutshell:
    - remember that Spanish mussels are served raw and have a gritty salty flavor profile.
    - the steamed mussels are magnificent
    - the French onion soup is a MUST TRY. They delicately balance the broth, cheese and onion and the flavor is AMAZING.
    - the hazelnut encrusted lamb is a small portion but worth the spend. They came out juicy and the hazelnut was a surprisingly nice touch.
    - my friend didn't enjoy the mussels and offended the server so they never came back BUT another waiter stepped in and more than compensated for the untimely departure.
    -it has a beautiful street view as most Parisian restaurants do and I highly recommend a window seat.
    - the wine selection is vast and I recommend the Pinot noir

    Overall we had a great experience and will add this to the list of restaurants to return to.

    In A Nutshell:

    -Au Chien Qui Fume or The Smoking Dog is a nice place to grab some fresh seafood.
    -It's what you imagine a French restaurant to be:  on a sidewalk corner, serving awesome food w/ superb service.
    -The seafood platter that we ordered was HUGE, tons of escargot, oysters, clams, crab & shrimp sitting on a bed of crushed ice was worth the order.
    -Our waiter, which I forgot his name was the BEST waiter you could imagine.

    Overall, I recommend grabbing a bite to eat here if you are in the mood for fresh seafood.

    We had breakfast here on our last morning in Paris. Located near our hotel, it is an easy walk. The server spoke English which was a plus. We ordered the omelets, with brioche & I had a cappuccino. Hands down the best capp I've had. The omelets were delicious & the brioche & croissants were very fresh & scrumptious! Will full bellies we were off on our next adventure.
