- SaraMay 10, 2015SMALL! So forgive ppl who bump into you. But well worth a visit. The people working there are all really nice. The menu (tapas) is hanging from the ceiling! So cool, and not something you everyday.
- Zara KhanFebruary 24, 2020Duck hearts are juicy & have a S.E Asian flavor that is quite subtle. Great wine / tapas bar: casual place with high bar stools, fast serve, not good for groups, variety served with bordier butter.

- Baran von IsikNovember 5, 2015Spain has tapas; Venice have cicchetti and Paris has L'Avant Comptoir. Excellent French food in a cozy service ritual. Pied de cochon; foie gras; ox tail Corsican wine, can't get better than this.
- Travel + LeisureMarch 19, 2013At this elbow-to-elbow “hors d’oeuvres bar,” the bread basket is communal, but the foie gras skewers and boudin noir macarons are just for you. More places to eat like a local: tandl.me/12ufz7c

- Kate GoldMay 11, 2014Crêpes up front and pork (Ibaïona) in the rear. Standing room only at Yves Camdeborde’s tapas and wine bar, a hit since it opened in fall of 2009. Go during the off hours. A great neighborhood option
