Must Try

Classic French brasserie - steak tartare, sole meunière. The setting matters more than innovation.

Best Time

Lunch when light streams through. Or before/after a train journey for the romance.

Know Before You Go

Built for the 1900 World's Fair and unchanged since. The frescoed ceilings celebrate French regions. Yes, it's in a train station. No, that doesn't diminish the magnificence. Dress presentably.
