Chez Nous Review

This small bistro is a great choice for a quiet lunch or dinner. The setting is attractive and casual -- small tables decorated with a few fresh flowers sticking out from old anisette bottles, Folies Bergere posters on the wall. The French owners have prospered by consistently providing high-quality service and food at reasonable prices. The most popular choice here is the prix-fixe dinner with a choice of soup, salad, or pâté; one of three designated entrees; and crème caramel, chocolate mousse, or brie for dessert. The main courses might include a poisson poivre vert (fresh fish of the day with a green-peppercorn sauce) or a simple but delicious roast chicken. Everything from the pâtés to the profiteroles is made on the premises. Of the main courses, one of my favorites is the lamb chops crusted in fine herbs and grilled.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
