I ate at L'affriole twice in October and can only say nice things about it. It must have been an off day with the moons aligned wrong. I even loved the fact that you REALLY had to squeeze into your table. Met quite a few interesting people and one jackass (a Guy from England,) made a rude political remark to my 10 year old daughter, but his partner (French) apologized for him. But even that made the evening interesting. But back to L'Affriole, I know there are alot of restaurants worth trying in Paris but if you ever run out, give them another chance!
