Romantic 1oth anniversary meal in Montmartre?

I%26#39;m taking my wife to Paris for our 10th Weddning Anniversary, and had it planned to book Chez Toinette on Rue Germain Pilon in Montmartre. However, some of the reviews haven%26#39;t been very good recently, and it seems to be quite expensive. Can anyone else point me in the direction of a reasonably priced (i.e. approx 100Euro for a two-course meal and a bottle of wine)romantic alternative in the same area please?





I need to get this right, so your help would be really appreciated!!!

This is not what I%26#39;d call romantic but it is a small, friendly restaurant in Montmartre with very good food, le Poulbot. Here is a web page with some photos and information...

We had dinner there this past April, two main courses and a bottle of wine came to $76.61 (e57.00). You should make reservations if you plan on going.

Try here www.pomponnette-montmartre.com/indexeng.html. It%26#39;s a small bistro owned by the same family for over 100 years. Book ahead. Very good Paris/French cooking. 3 course meal €35 per head, good and reasonable wine list.

Also very nice is

Both have beautiful dining rooms, nicely spaced tables, and are very quiet for romantic dining. Be sure to mention your anniversary when reserving.

Thanks PJK. I%26#39;ve eaten here on a few occasions and have enjoyed it each time. Occasionally on weekends after service, music starts with live performers providing a range of French music from contemporary to traditional. Great end to a great meal.

Thanks for the replies thus far. A La Pomponnette seems to fit the bill, but the website menu looks quiet unusual, and whilst I%26#39;m more than prepared to try out a veals head or a pigs foot, I%26#39;m not sure that my wife would be so keen.





Does anyone know if this place does more standard items on the menu as well?

Yes it does. I think you may be looking at the English translations which can make for interesting reading. Enjoy you meal and do report back.
