Chez René

Local cuisineLocals' pick

A poster-lined bistrot with moleskin banquettes and white cloths at the quiet end of boulevard Saint-Germain. Grilled bone marrow, whole veal kidney in mustard sauce, onglet with house fries, a daily slate with pot-au-feu "René", and a dense chocolate mousse; the wine list leans to Beaujolais.
